Interim Chief Goyette: Our strength is our people

The City of Kinston is looking for its third police chief since 2020, and they may not have to look far.

In October, former Kinston Police Chief Jenee Spencer retired and left a vacancy. Major Keith Goyette was asked to step into the role as interim chief until the position could be filled. City manager Rhonda Barwick has started a nationwide search for Kinston’s next police chief.
