Today’s Good News
Kudos
to Third Precinct Sergeant Anthony
Papaleo who was named the Department’s Sergeant of the Month for May! Sergeant Papaleo displays many of
the great qualities of a leader such as finding good ways to motivate his
officers, leading from the front and taking the time to mentor younger
officers.
He often attends neighborhood meetings to
hear residents’ complaints and then encourages his officers to come up with the
best ways to address the issues. Two such initiatives have reduced burglaries,
boosted employee morale and taught officers about conducting surveillance.
However, one of Sergeant Papaleo’s biggest
accomplishments was the conclusion of a three-month investigation during which
he took the lead to find and identify several victims in an unlawful filming
case. When another law enforcement agency couldn’t make contact with one of the
victims, Sergeant Papaleo and another officer drove to another state and worked
with local law enforcement to have the victim identify herself and help justify
several of the pending charges. The end result was a 19-felony-count indictment
against the offender! Thank you and congratulations to Sergeant Papaleo!
