A civil verdict deserves respect. So does accuracy, context, and fairness.

This statement is not intended to retry the Estrella matter on social media or diminish the jury’s findings. It reflects my own firsthand experiences with Mayor Brian Stack and former Chief Nichelle Luster over many years of public service.

People are entitled to their opinions and criticism. Those of us who have worked alongside these individuals for decades are also entitled to speak honestly about what we have personally witnessed.

Social media doesn’t get to rewrite decades of reality.

One of the greatest lessons we can teach the next generation isn’t found in a classroom—it’s found in serving others.

Today, our Union City Junior Police Academy cadets took part in the Union City Stands with Venezuela humanitarian campaign by helping sort and prepare thousands of donated items for shipment to families in need.

Public service isn’t only about wearing a badge. It’s about compassion, teamwork, and answering the call to help others whenever you can.

To our Junior Police Academy cadets, thank you for embracing that lesson and reminding us that the future of public service is in good hands.

🇺🇸 Serving our community. Helping the world.

🇻🇪 Una de las lecciones más importantes que podemos enseñar a la próxima generación no se aprende solamente en un salón de clases; se aprende sirviendo a los demás.

Hoy, nuestros cadetes de la Academia Juvenil de Policía de Union City formaron parte de la campaña Union City Unido por Venezuela, ayudando a clasificar y preparar miles de donaciones que pronto llevarán esperanza a familias necesitadas.

El servicio público no consiste solamente en portar una placa. También significa tener compasión, trabajar en equipo y ayudar a quienes más lo necesitan.

Gracias, cadetes, por recordarnos que el futuro del servicio público está en muy buenas manos.

THANK YOU, UNION CITY! 🇺🇸🇻🇪

Our humanitarian aid collection for the people of Venezuela is now officially closed.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our community, we collected nearly five times our original goal. Thank you to everyone who donated, volunteered, carried supplies, shared our posts, and helped spread the word.

When a community unites for a meaningful purpose, great things happen.

¡GRACIAS, UNION CITY! 🇺🇸🇻🇪

Nuestra recolección de ayuda humanitaria para el pueblo de Venezuela ha cerrado oficialmente.

Today we celebrate the mothers who hold families together and make sacrifices every single day, often without recognition.

To all of the mothers within our Union City Police family, and to every mother throughout the community we proudly serve, we wish you a Happy Mother’s Day filled with love, appreciation, and time with those who matter most.

Thank you for everything you do, both seen and unseen. 💙

Hoy celebramos a las madres que mantienen unidas a sus familias y hacen sacrificios todos los días, muchas veces sin reconocimiento.

A todas las madres que forman parte de nuestra familia policial de Union City, y a cada madre de la comunidad a la que orgullosamente servimos, les deseamos un Feliz Día de la Madre lleno de amor, reconocimiento y tiempo junto a sus seres queridos.

Gracias por todo lo que hacen, tanto por lo que se ve como por lo que no se ve. 💙

This is what unity looks like.

Behind this moment is more than a fundraiser or collection of donations. It is compassion, commitment, and a shared purpose.

The Union City Police Department , City of Union City Mayor and Commissioners , FOP Lodge 216 , and PBA Local 8 came together to support Nassan’s Place and the families they serve. Every pin sold, every contribution made, represents our officers and community standing with children and families affected by autism.

We don’t just serve this city—we stand with it.

Proud to be part of something bigger than ourselves.

Pride. Professionalism. Unity.

Union City F.O.P. Lodge #216 was proud to sponsor a professional photo session for the supervisors who help lead our department each day. Investing in our members means recognizing their service, building morale, and honoring those who carry the responsibility of leadership.

Special thanks to Espinal Photography for delivering outstanding work and supporting our union members.

This behind-the-scenes video captures more than photos — it captures pride in the profession.

Strong leaders. Strong union. Strong community.
