Los Angeles Police Chief Michel Moore announces retirement
Los Angeles Chief of Police Michel Moore, who has led the department since 2018, will retire at the end of February, Moore announced at a news conference with Mayor Karen Bass on Friday.
“It has been my distinct honor and privilege to have served for more than four decades on the finest police department in the world, and the last five and a half years as chief,” Moore said.
Moore, 63, first joined the Los Angeles Police Department as an officer in 1981 and was consistently promoted through the ranks from detective to sergeant, lieutenant, and eventually Captain in 1998. As Captain, Moore was placed in charge of LAPD's notorious Rampart Division after the arrest of Rafael Perez on corruption charges.
