Four new officers were sworn into the 麻豆原创 Police Department family this week.

Fellow officers and 麻豆原创PD staff, family, friends and members of the community joined the celebration Wednesday.

麻豆原创 Police Chief Richard Beary swore the officers in and concluded the ceremony with some simple advice.

鈥淭reat people with respect,鈥 Chief Beary said. 鈥淯se the authority that you have honorably and when in doubt, if you wouldn鈥檛 do it in front of your mom and dad, don鈥檛 do it,鈥

The new additions bring 麻豆原创PD鈥檚 sworn total to 74 officers. Once the new officers finish their classroom training in September, they will be paired with a patrol officer to experience field training on the roads. Each officer will be assigned to the patrol division once their training is completed.

Meet the Officers:

  • Victor Gaytan, an OCSO retiree who is looking forward to protecting and serving the 麻豆原创 community, especially since his daughters will soon be students here.
  • Latesha Johnson, a recent academy graduate who is excited to make a positive impact on students and help change the perception of law enforcement.
  • Doug Osborne, an OPD retiree and 麻豆原创 alum who is eager to give back to his school.
  • Emmanuel 鈥淢anny鈥 Torres, who served in the Coast Guard Reserve and is enthusiastic about working at an agency that feels like a family.
