Beyond The Badge

On this episode of KSL's beyond the badge, we honor Officer William Barnett of the Taylorsville police department. When responding to a call for help from a disabled man, Officer Barnett came up with a plan to help push him and his wheelchair past a construction site and out of the sun on a hot day. The man told Officer Barnett that he went way above what he needed to do, but Officer Barnett said he will just continue to do those kinds of kind acts. KSL's Beyond the Badge recognizes the good work that Utah's public safety officers do every day to make each of our lives better. Listen to Utah's Morning News every weekday as Amanda Dickson highlights the everyday heroes who work tirelessly to keep us safe. Officers are nominated by their respective police chiefs, sheriffs and supervisors, and the general public. Those featured are selected by a committee composed of representatives from KSL, the Department of Public Safety and Utah Local Governments Trust. KSL has also partnered with the Utah Lieutenant Governo
