Even before Geneva Police Chief Eric Passarelli wrote his June 2 message to the community, questions were rolling into the City regarding local policing efforts after the death George Floyd. In his latest blog post, the Chief takes time to respond to those questions.

I have been asked many questions by members of our community as it relates to the heartbreaking and incomprehensible death of George Floyd at the hands of a Minneapolis, Minn. police officer. I have been asked to explain how an incident such as this will be prevented here in Geneva and how we will assure that all people will be treated fairly, with dignity, compassion, and empathy at all times.
