Manassas Local spoke with Manassas City Police Chief Douglas Keen about what the role of police officers are in his community in 2016.
ML: What do you see coming down the pike locally for law enforcement this year?
Keen: There are two major things, and they are tied together. One is rebuilding community trust. We see this across the country. We in law enforcement need to do more of getting the public in our community to understand what we do, why we do it, and how we do it, to convince the community they can trust us, by doing the right things every day.
