In answer to the anonymous letter covering the choice of David Mullis for chief of police: Tyrone is fortunate to have such a chief, one with much experience, integrity, humility, common sense (a rare commodity these days) a willingness to listen to the facts, and a great sense of humor.

We can say these things because we have known David all his life and we are not related.

As a former police officer said after 16 years, “Nothing in my degree in law enforcement prepared one for the reality of policing.”

So the anonymous letter writer I would say, if you are one of those who wanted the job, get to know your chief, be his friend and learn from him.

Then maybe [you] will one day be chief.
