Campbell County Sheriff’s Office Wearing New Pink Star in Support of Cause

September 30, 2025

Throughout the month of October, the Campbell County Sheriff’s Office will proudly wear a special version of its traditional star badge featuring pink accents in honor of Breast
Cancer Awareness Month.

“Awareness saves lives. If even one person is inspired to get screened or support a loved one because they see our pink badges, then this effort will have been worth it.” Sheriff Mike Jansen commented.

The initiative is part of a nationwide effort by law enforcement agencies to show support for those impacted by breast cancer, raise awareness about the
importance of early detection, and honor the strength and resilience of survivors and their families.

Behind every badge is a member of our community — a friend, a neighbor, a loved one, a coworker — and many of them have been touched by breast cancer in some way. Wearing pink on our badges is a small but meaningful way to show that we stand with them in the fight and that they are not alone.

Deputies and staff will wear the pink-accented stars on their uniforms throughout October. The Sheriff’s Office also encourages residents to schedule regular screenings and support local breast cancer awareness campaigns.

Today, we congratulated and bid farewell to Court Security Officer Ed Harber. Ed has been a valued member of our team since Sheriff Jansen’s first year in office in 2015. Throughout his service, Ed played a vital role in courtroom security, prisoner transport, and was a familiar, welcoming presence at the main courthouse entrance—greeting countless individuals who passed through our doors. We sincerely thank Ed for his dedication and wish him all the best in his future endeavors.

Deputy Adam Noe has played a key role in shaping a strong, successful SRO presence in our schools over the past two years—serving both Bishop Brossart and Newport Central Catholic High Schools, while also supporting their feeder schools as a safety and security advisor.

With Newport Central Catholic now welcoming their own full-time SRO, Deputy Noe’s focus is shifting. For the 2025–2026 school year, he’ll serve full-time as the SRO for Bishop Brossart High School—and we’re excited to announce that the high school has partnered with St. Mary School (Alexandria) and St. Joseph School (Cold Spring), the two largest feeder schools in the area, to share Deputy Noe’s SRO duties. This means increased safety, mentorship, and support for even more students across Campbell County.

We’re incredibly proud of how our SRO program continues to grow—ensuring that more schools can have dedicated safety coverage that once seemed out of reach.

School Resource Officer, Deputy Micheal Rowland is the new full-time SRO at Newport Central Catholic High School. Deputy Rowland will also be working via partnership with NCC at Holy Trinity School in Bellevue, Kentucky.

Deputy Rowland is a retired police officer/detective from the City of Fort Thomas, and was working as a rehired police officer in Highland Heights when he decided to join the Campbell County Sheriff’s Office. Deputy Rowland is a full-time deputy, but is assigned to the school as an SRO on each day there is school and for various special events and activities.
