@CommissBratton A tremendous cop. I will miss him.🙏

Thank you for posting this link Bill. Largely due to your introduction, I had the honor of working closely with George Kelling. People cannot discount the importance of his work.

Anthony Braga and I were just discussing this article. We need more police/public health collaborations to improve public safety. The strategies work!

An important article reinforcing the importance of the misunderstood and inappropriately maligned Broken Windows philosophy. In my lectures, I often cite the relationship between medicine and policing in that both professions are authorized to use ‘force’ including ‘deadly force,’ but to always do it appropriately using the least amount of force (or medicine). You don't want a police officer using excessive force and you don't want a doctor using excessive amounts of medicine inappropriately (too much chemo or radiation for example). Both professions/practices need to be committed to the principle, “do no harm,” while attempting to treat people or correct behavior while trying to prevent the growth of the identified illness or disorder. https://t.co/ucQC80Sfbk

My sincere sympathy to the family and friends of Minister Don. He was a vital advisor during my 7 years as Boston police commissioner. Minister Don Muhammad was a good friend and a good man. We will miss him.

Congratulations to @NYCSanitation Jessica Tisch. Mayor Adams made an excellent appointment to the position of Police Commissioner at the NYPD. Jessica has always been a consummate professional. She understands policing from the inside and the outside. This is excellent news for the citizens of New York City.

"The police can play a leading role in relaying the importance of various technologies in doing our jobs & keeping our communities safe. It’s incumbent upon police leaders & victims to lead the charge in advocating for the use & access of technology." --@EdDavis3 at #IACPTech

I cannot understate the importance of the FirstNet authority. They guarantee that vital communication among first responders is maintained. I was honored to address with this exceptional team.

[FirstNet Authority @FirstNetGov]

At the latest Patriot Siren leadership meeting, the @FirstNetGov executive team heard from @EdDavis3 about his experiences leading the Boston Police Dept. during the Boston Marathon bombing and the importance of preparedness, comms, and partnerships. Thank you, Commissioner!
