Police Recruits Take Over the Apollo

On June 23, 2008 by D. Bell

More than 1,000 new Police recruits filled the Apollo Theater on Monday. But they weren’t there to provide crowd control for a concert event or the popular Amateur Night. The recruits were the audience participating in a four-day program on “advancing community trust.”

The program, the second since Sean Bell’s murder, will address issues like the department’s controversial stop-and-frisk policy, and include workshops on diversity.
