Ms. Burton:

I’m forwarding you today’s reports/updates regarding the Sumter investigation, per Mayor Neville’s request.

As I said yesterday, undercover cases like these may take time and it’s unreasonable to expect immediate results. Rest assured, our officers are doing everything in their power to further this investigation in a timely and efficient manner.

Victor Hardiman
Chief of Police

Chief Hardiman:

The updates are appreciated.

On a related note, Mayor Neville is increasingly concerned about the PCPD’s lack of progress concerning that prisoner transport incident earlier this month. Are there any leads on the whereabouts of the two escaped prisoners—particularly the one who abducted the Mayor on Halloween?

Since both escapees were high-profile arrests, the recent negative media coverage has been extremely troubling.

The Mayor is also hopeful that a major breakthrough will be forthcoming with this latest drug crisis. Afterlife has been making headlines on a daily basis, and the public now expects results following the PCPD’s announcement of an Afterlife Task Force.
