Shane B. Kasper, Corporal and Patrol Officer

Hi! My name is Shane Kasper. I am from the small town of Warda, Texas. I graduated from La Grange High School in 1997. I started my college studies at Blinn College in Schulenburg, then transferred to Sam Houston State University to get my Bachelor of Art degree in Criminal Justice. I graduated from Sam Houston in December 2002.

While attending college, I started my career in criminal justice working as a Residential Supervisor at Bastrop County Restitution Center in Elgin. I started there in July 2000, and worked there until the facility shut down in July 2003. Soon after that, I became a Juvenile Probation Officer for Bastrop County, where I worked until I joined the Texas Police Corps in Huntsville in July 2004. After graduating from the Police Corps, I went back to work for Juvenile Probation until I was hired on for Bastrop Police Department in June 2005.

Bastrop Police Department has finally made my dream come true of becoming a Police Officer. I am proud to be one of Bastrop's Finest and to serve and protect the City of Bastrop.
