Ever since the long-time Senior Lead Officer in Pacific Palisades, Michael Moore, retired in January, LAPD West Division Commanding Officer Jonathan Tom has been unable to replace him, thanks to budget constraints. Instead, our area has a recurring SLO “substitute.”
The third “new” SLO for this area in three months is Officer Omir Perez. He wrote an email this morning to the community:
“Good Morning. My name is Officer Omir Perez and I will be your acting SLO for 8A1’s area for the next four weeks. Today is my first day in the office and I wanted to introduce myself. I have been with the department for some time now and I have been at WLA division for five years.
“I have worked patrol, the gang detail, and my most recent assignment is patrol, working as a Field Training Officer. I received the Officer of the Year award in 2019. I look forward to working with you, meeting you, and doing whatever I can to help the quality of life in your neighborhood.”
Respectfully,
Omir Perez Jr.
Police Officer III
