Albany police swear in 11 new police officers

Marwaha, who is 21 and speaks four languages — Hindi, Punjabi, Urdu and English — said he wants to see law enforcement bridge language barriers and diversify the ranks. The city academy will offer classes in community policing as well as procedural justice, implicit bias and adverse childhood experiences. "The newest police officers will understand what our community needs and will understand what being a police officer in the 21st century means," Cox said. Sheehan said Albany struggles with poverty, education and social justice, and the city's police force is "committed to building trust and committed to having a positive influence on the community."
