Remembering Asst Police Chief, Richard Wilson

This is a huge loss for our city. Rich Wilson went above and beyond, and certainly had a positive impact on the relationship between the SCPD and the community.

We couldn't agree more that he had this uncanny ability to connect with people. He was "present" when in a conversation. Thank you. We'll miss you.
