Year 7 begins. Six years ago today, Mayor @dawnzimmernj selected me as the new @CityofHoboken Police Chief. I remain committed to the residents of Hoboken, @RaviBhalla along with his administration, the City Council, & the men and women of the @HobokenPD ! Year 6 was the most
Chief @KenFerrante’s record:
-Decrease in major crime
-Increased community policing
-No use of force complaints filed
-Played a central role during COID-19
Hoboken is fortunate to have him & I hope the Council will approve his full 3 year extension

@gauravsabnis Not sure I understand how to think about that.. can you provide some more explanation around how to compare the two (weeklong curfew vs damaged storefronts)
certain groups, and to always de-escalate and start with a calm demeanor, and most importantly treat everyone THE SAME! In 6 yrs, our department has NOT had ONE lawsuit against our officers for Excessive Force or Racially Biased Policing. We don't stand for that! EQUALITY!
@gauravsabnis Did you not experience this at the IITs and IIMs when you were there ? I have friends who say there were specific courses around this ? Have the courses there changed recently then ?
This am the @HarvardGH called for a nationwide shut down to slow the spread of COVID-19. The medical professionals agree it's going to get worse before it gets better. We need to ask - have we done everything possible to limit the spread of COVID-19? And so far, the answer is no
@RaviBhalla Thanks Mayor ! This is a hard decision and you will face criticism from detractors. But such decisive actions are needed seeing the crowds in restaurants and bars today. You have my support.
