Ken Severn

Ken Severn is a 27 year veteran law enforcement officer with substantial training and experience in death and major case investigations,  interrogations, field training, evidence collection, handgun and tactical rifle instruction, and community policing. He is said to be "a man of unshakable integrity" by Chief of Police Charles McGee (Ret), and a "highly successful" and "distinguished police officer" by his colleagues.

As a co-founder of MOG Safety, Ken wants to bring his training and experience in law enforcement where it is most needed, to the law-abiding people who make up the fine communities we live in.

"Do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God".  Micah 6:8 sums it up pretty well.
