As the Mayor of the third largest city in New Jersey, Torres has focused on diminishing crime in the community and has been passionate about bridging the divide between the community and law enforcement.

- Engage law enforcement departments across America
- Empower departments with the knowledge of the latest safety, communication, tracking and monitoring technologies
- Promote the good work of our brave men and women in blue
Over 60 law enforcement officers attended the event and included speeches from the Mayor and by many of the Trust 2 Protect members, including the campaign’s endorsers, statements from government officials and personal stories from officers and families. Other attendees included COPsync CEO Ron Woessner, Paterson Police Director Jerry Speziale, Paterson Fire Department Chief Michael Postorino, representatives from various law enforcement agencies including the Passaic County Sherriff’s Office and the William Paterson University Police Department, and representatives from Paterson Public Schools and St. Joseph’s Healthcare System.
