Duvall. “I look forward to working alongside the dedicated troopers and local law enforcement in this region to continue our mission of serving and protecting the citizens of Daviess, Hancock, Henderson, McLean, Ohio, and Union counties.”

A dedicated public servant with 24 years of experience within the agency, Duvall brings a wealth of leadership and operational expertise to the Henderson post. He is a 2002 graduate of the KSP Academy and began his distinguished career assigned to Post 1 in Mayfield.

Throughout his tenure, Captain Duvall has served in various leadership capacities across the Commonwealth. He was promoted to sergeant in 2014, serving at both the Madisonville and Mayfield posts, before advancing to the rank of lieutenant in 2017.
