MikeK: Cops, Media Worked Story Well
Councilman MikeK:
I had the opportunity to see the detectives in the CdA Police
Department last night at around 8:00 pm. They had been there since 2 am
working at breakneck pace on this
capital murder case. They were
amazingly composed despite the fact that you could tell they were
exhausted. Sgt. Christie Wood was there and shared with me that she had
awakened television reporters in the early morning hours to get their
assistance in letting the public know when the alleged perp was still
at large. Print reporters were on the job and updating website
information as events broke, and definitely HBO had all the details and
updates and was truly helping break the story. The mistake on Rancho
Viejo vs. Toro Viejo was just that, an honest mistake, and it was
corrected fast.
DFO: Don’t you wished every police agency was as quick and responsive as CPD Blue when news is breaking. We’re pretty fortunate to have a sheriff and police chiefs in this county who know the importance of getting the news to the public. May their kind increase.
