The American Jail Association has named Lieutenant Fabiola Torres the 2022 Correctional Training Officer of the Year. The 3,000 member American Jail Association recently named her to this award for her excellence in the area of training at Sedgwick County Law Enforcement Training Center. Lieutenant Torres will receive the award this spring at the AJA’s annual conference in Long Beach, California.
