Description
Tampa officials are set to discuss the future of its police department at 7:45 a.m. Friday, June 2.
Mayor Jane Castor will be joined by Police Interim Chief Lee Bercaw for a news conference at the Tampa Police Department Headquarters, the city announced in a news release.
The city did not specifically say what topics will be discussed at the event, but it is highly anticipated to be surrounded on the subject of the police department's police chief.
Back in December of 2022, former Tampa Police Chief Mary O'Connor resigned from her position as top cop of the department after an internal affairs investigation into a golf cart traffic stop in which body camera video showed her displaying her credentials and saying, "I'm hoping that you'll just let us go tonight."
