Cpl. Hollis’ dedication

Congratulations are offered up to Cpl. Hollis on another well-deserved award! During the Idaho Transportation Department’s Annual Highway Safety Summit, Cpl. Hollis received the 2024 Idaho Outstanding Law Enforcement Phlebotomist award for his commitment and excellence in performing blood draws on individuals suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol.

The Law Enforcement Phlebotomy Program (LEPP) is an important part of the impaired driving program. While waiting for an individual to respond to draw blood, vital evidence is slipping away. This program is one way to gather evidence in a timely fashion that may otherwise be lost, ultimately leading to safer roads for our citizens and their families.
