Jackson Police Department highlights longtime multimedia coordinator
The Jackson Police Department said in a Facebook post that Jay Johnson has served as the department and the City of Jackson’s multimedia coordinator since 1988, adding that “not all JPD legends wear a uniform and badge.”
The post did not provide additional details about Johnson’s duties. Multimedia coordinators typically handle photography and videography, manage social media and public information, and assist with internal and external communications for a police agency.
Long tenure in a communications role can provide institutional memory and continuity as a department adapts to changing technology and community expectations. Department communicators often act as the public face of an agency during incidents, public outreach and routine news releases.
The Jackson Police Department is the municipal law enforcement agency serving the City of Jackson. Local police departments commonly rely on dedicated communications staff to maintain transparency and inform residents about public safety initiatives.
Details in the Facebook post were limited. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
