Hillsborough County high schoolers learn from local law enforcement during career day

Hillsborough County high schoolers interested in criminal justice careers spent Wednesday learning from local law enforcement and other agencies. Organizers told FOX 13 the event at the HCC Ybor City campus was the first of its kind, bringing together over a dozen different agencies and 150 students, who are already studying in criminal justice programs at six different high schools. "It's a shared interest that they have, so putting them together, it gives them the chance to meet new people, and gives them the opportunity to think, wow, there's somebody else who has that same interest," FBI Tampa’s Betsy Moriarty said.
