Alan Trevino Closing Statement
“I want to thank everybody for participating in this very important process. Thank you, judges Garret and Stubbs. Thank you for the fairness in moderating. And for our supporters. Thank you for attending. I hope our lively debate validated the reason for your support. I will take days on. I will take days off. When I became chief, I listened to my captains as a group and individually. I didn’t step on their toes. I let them do their job. My door was always open, and when they asked for help, we worked out solutions together. 02/12/2025 01:10 AM
