Columbia Police Chief Jason Cross, at right, read a letter to the Mayor and City Council announcing his retirement from 19 years service in the Columbia Police Department, 10 of those years as chief. He thanked Mayor Pam Hoots, Council members and the previous CPD Chiefs who hired and trained him, Edwin Taylor and Mark Harris. He chose and received unanimous support for Sergeant Jr. Murphy to begin working with him in the coming four weeks and then transition to the position of Chief.

ISP would like to introduce Akash Sasane from India. The hardest adjustment he had to make when moving to America was getting acclimated and finding his way in a new and different cultural setting.
When asked why he chose to attend Lindsey Wilson, he said he felt a connection here and that people are friendly and nice. He said that his favorite place he has been to in America was Moab, Utah because of Arches National Park. He said he was awestruck when he visited because of its beauty. His favorite Indian tradition is Namaste, which is a non-contact greeting practiced in Southeast Asia and India. Namaste would be a great greeting to practice during COVID-19.
