“Today I came to the difficult decision after months of structural issues at the Albuquerque CPOA to resign my post at the agency.

“At this time, I respectfully resign my position and look forward to the City Council and the Department of Justice to review this Agency’s process. I know the two entities will find a solution that best serves the residents of Albuquerque, and our women and men in blue. I look forward to continuing to serve the residents of Albuquerque in future roles as we all work to make Albuquerque the best city in this country again. The future is bright, Albuquerque!”
