9NEWS: The city of Aurora once again has a new police chief. Todd Chamberlain was sworn in during a quiet ceremony Monday afternoon. But some people in the community aren’t satisfied with the process that led up to the swearing-in.
Many in the community have spent years telling the city and police they want transparency and a voice in what’s happening around Aurora. Seeing Chamberlain, a former Los Angeles Police Department commander, put into power without any say from the community, they say, erodes the public trust even further.
After being sworn in, Chamberlain started work right away by speaking with protesters gathered near the ceremony. They want to see justice in Kilyn Lewis’ death, and also answers as to why Aurora PD’s new leader was picked in private.
