Lt. Brett Yeadon graduates from FBI National Academy

Lieutenant Brett Yeadon of the Everett Police Department has graduated from the esteemed 289th session of the FBI National Academy, a ten-week program known for advanced training in leadership, communication, and physical fitness. Chief of Police John DeRousse highlighted the significance of the partnership between the Everett Police and the FBI, noting that such training opportunities are invaluable for enhancing law enforcement capabilities.
