Sheriff, Molino Residents Praise Neighborhood Watch Effectiveness

August 27, 2013

Escambia County Sheriff David Morgan praised the effectiveness of neighborhood watch groups Monday night during a meeting of the Molino Mid-County Neighborhood Watch,.

“We can’t be everywhere all the time; you are our eyes and ears,” Morgan told the group. “Especially in the rural areas…everybody knows their neighbors.”

Sarah Jenness, president of the two-year old Molino neighborhood watch group agreed. “It’s very effective and it works,” she said.

The number of neighborhood watch groups in Escambia County is up to 114.
