Residents of East Bridgewater and West Bridgewater received an engaging lesson in sleuthing this past week when Lt. Jason Tibbetts from the Plymouth County Sheriff's Department brought his "Who Done It" presentation to local Councils on Aging. Known for bringing crime scene investigation to life, Lt. Tibbetts offered a unique brand of education and entertainment, blending law enforcement techniques with a participatory whodunit experience.

According to a social media post by The Plymouth County Sheriff's Department, attendees at both the East Bridgewater and West Bridgewater Councils on Aging were able to engage directly in the mock crime scene investigations.

Each presentation featured a staged crime scene where participants used critical thinking to parse out the evidence and determine the culprit. The department expressed gratitude for the participation, noting, "Thank you to all those who attended, and Lt. Tibbetts for providing this fun and informative event."

The initiative by Lt. Tibbetts and the Plymouth County Sheriff's Department has been lauded for breaking down barriers between law enforcement and the community, particularly the elder portions of the population who are often most vulnerable to crime.
