The Register-Star just reported that Mayor Kamal Johnson has named a new police commissioner to replace Peter Volkmann. The new commissioner is Shane Bower, who retired from the Hudson Police Department in November 2019: "Bower named police commissioner."
Bower and Johnson are both quoted extensively in the article. Speaking of the Hudson Breathes Act, Bower is quoted as saying, "The problems that they are bringing here are not here. That's my issue with some of it. We are not Minnesota. We are not these agencies that have these problems. You look at the track record of the police department, these things don't happen. . . ." The article also states: "Johnson said he wants to prevent national policing issues from occurring in Hudson, and Bower agreed Hudson should be proactive."
I see a picture of our Mayor shaking hands with the new commissioner indoors, and neither one of them is wearing a mask. Is Hudson finally covid-free? B Huston
