Chief Sam Leonard’s Bio
My name is Sam Leonard. I am the Police Chief of East Carbon City. I was born and raised in Dragerton and East Carbon. I attended Petersen Elementary and East Carbon High School. I Married Susan Lemmon, my high school sweetheart. We have three awesome children, Savannah, Samson and Sawyer. They have blessed us with eight beautiful grandchildren.
Growing up and raising my family in East Carbon has been everything I could ask for. I was hired by East Carbon Police Dept. In 1989 I attended the Utah Police Academy and began my carrier as a police officer.
I choose to stay in East Carbon because of the surrounding beauty but mostly because of the families, people and friends that make East Carbon a very special place to live. It has been an honor to serve the citizens of East Carbon in my capacity as a Police Officer for the past 34 years.
