“We want legitimacy in this program. We want people to trust and believe in it,” said Elliott during a news conference at SDPD headquarters on Tuesday.

Law enforcement officials from various agencies, friends, and family members gathered at the Chula Vista Police Department’s headquarters on Thursday to celebrate the career of out-going Police Chief David Bejarano.
Bejarano, 59, ended his 35-year law enforcement career this week and will officially retire on December 30 after having first served as San Diego Police Chief, U.S. Marshall of the Southern California Division, and finally as Chula Vista’s top cop. Before becoming a San Diego police officer, Bejarano served four years in the United States Marine Corp.
“We can’t thank you enough for what you’ve done for Chula Vista PD,” said Captain Roxana Kennedy, who this week was selected to replace Bejarano as Chula Vista’s next Police Chief, and the first woman to lead the department.
