Statement of the Cambridge Police Superior Officers Association, the Cambridge Police Patrol Officers Association, and the Massachusetts Municipal Police Coalition
Sergeant James Crowley and President Barack Obama had a friendly and meaningful conversation this afternoon. Sergeant Crowley was profoundly grateful that the President took time out of his busy schedule to attempt to resolve this situation.
It is clear to us from this conversation, that the President respects police officers and the often difficult and dangerous situations we face on a daily basis. We appreciate his sincere interest and willingness to reconsider his remarks about the Cambridge Police Department.
The Cambridge Police Superior Officers Association, the Cambridge Police Patrol Officers Association, the Massachusetts Municipal Police Coalition, and particularly Sergeant Crowley, extend our special thanks to the citizens of Cambridge and across the country for their overwhelming support during this difficult time. We look forward to returning out attention to the important police work we do everyday.
