McManus Stood with SA. McManus Stood with Immigrants. McManus Stood with Justice.
Mayor Ron Nirenberg
We the undersigned individuals write to express our support for community centered policing practiced by San Antonio Police Chief William McManus. We vigorously oppose efforts to politicize and criminalize policies that support immigrant crime victims in our community.
On December 23rd, Chief McManus demonstrated what victim-centered policing looks like in practice. Survivors had immediate access to social services and legal representation which allowed them, as crime victims, to focus on providing accurate, essential information to law enforcement officials as they gathered the information necessary to protect public safety.
We oppose any efforts to prevent or oppose local police practices, or victim-centered approaches. Additionally, we call on city leaders and community members to honor the values that San Antonio, as a compassionate city, has repeatedly expressed to welcome all members of our community and recognize, reward, and celebrate acts of compassion in our city.
We applaud your continued support of Chief McManus and efforts to improve the safety of our city for immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers.
