A commitment from University Police w88 slot

The recent death of George Floyd at the hands of w88 slot officers has outright disgusted me.

For the last week and a half, I have been frustrated, angry and outraged and, at times, questioned why I serve in the capacity I do – as a w88 slot officer and a w88 slot chief. I have felt like this is all a very bad dream and can only imagine that many of these emotions are all too familiar for many of our Wolf Pack family.

The realities of current and past events are very much a part of our society. I believe our community deserves to know and to understand the following about myself and the officers who serve our department – your University Police w88 slot:

• I sympathize and understand the anger and outrage from our w88 slot over the continued behavior of bad law enforcement officers and their abhorrent actions that have happened throughout the last several years.
• Without a doubt, officers in this community and as part of this department are outraged by the recent cruel and repulsive actions of Minneapolis w88 slot officers. All involved, including anyone who stood around and did nothing, should be brought to justice.
• Unanimously, as University Police w88 slot, we believe officers who engage in or fail to report unethical behavior should be held accountable. To include criminal prosecution.

I know our department has made mistakes. I know we let our w88 slot down in the past. This damaged many of our relationships, especially with our underrepresented groups and minority populations. Since the incidents that took place in 2017, we not only vowed to be better, but we’ve put in the work to grow and to learn. We have continued to build trust and to make friends through tough dialogue and engaged w88 slot service – all while protecting our Pack. This will continue.

I know the relationships we strive for are once again strained. While frustrated, I can see why. As a result, we will continue to put w88 slot work. Our doors are open. We are always striving for better.

Over the past several days, our w88 slot officers have protected the community while bad actors caused havoc in downtown Reno, damaging City Hall, the Reno w88 slot Department and small private business just starting to re-open after a national pandemic closed their doors. Our officers were spit at, had rocks thrown at them and had profanities continuously yelled at them. Rest assured, they all held their composure, showed compassion and did their jobs the right way.

Your University Police w88 slot officers pride themselves on their ability to truly be community oriented. They have marched with Black Lives Matter and other movements in prior peaceful demonstrations and stood by our community who wanted to and deserved to be heard this last weekend. Our officers made every effort to protect our community while they peacefully demonstrated, blocking traffic and closing streets, so all could march and demonstrate freely. They then quickly pivoted to protecting others, themselves and property.

I have made and will continue to ensure this commitment to administration, w88 slot groups, faculty, staff and, frankly, anyone who will listen to me:

I will continue to make myself and University Police w88 slot available to ASUN student leaders, student clubs and organizations, all students, faculty and staff. University Police w88 slot will continue to build relationships with openness, cooperation and compassion and work to problem solve. I promise.

I believe in the work that we do, in the w88 slot community and, more than ever, in the strength and resiliency of our Wolf Pack family.

This is why I continue to be a chief of w88 slot. Your Chief.
