“Crime prevention and community based solutions have a great potential to reduce crime and improve the quality of life for all Antioch residents. By increasing collaboration with our federal, state, local and community partners, we hope to increase our public’s access to justice and better support crime victims in this city,” said Morefield. “We are determined to focus our efforts on reducing gun violence, and recognize that evolved policing includes 21st century tools, and resources.”
He explained that the DOJ will be working with Antioch Police to access and audit existing policy, develop and modernize approaches to better serve the community.
“The additional training and assistance from the National Public Safety Partnership will help us gain better insight in the unique crime challenges we face, define best practices for addressing gun violence and the necessary resources for putting these ideas into action,” explained Morefield who said the department is committed to strategies that strengthen community ties and focus on prevention.
