My name is Jessica Liimatainen. I was born and raised in Barnum, Minnesota, and currently still live in Barnum. I have been a Minnesota State Trooper since May of 2022. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from St. Cloud State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice. I enjoy being a State Trooper and upholding not only the Minnesota State Patrols core values: respect, integrity, courage, honor and excellence, but also protecting and serving all people in Minnesota through assistance, education and enforcement.
