There was a huge turnout for the appointment from law enforcement agencies, government officials, and citizens alike. Jacqueline Coburn, Chief of Staff for the Los Santos Police Department (LSPD) started off the event by thanking everyone that had attended and introduced several important figures from law enforcement agencies and branches of government. Chief Branch Goodwater will be the fifty-ninth Chief of Police for the LSPD. He has a long service record with the department, starting out many years ago as a patrolman. As a sergeant he was the assistant commanding officer of the Air Support Division, later upon becoming a lieutenant he led this division to what it is today. He rose through the ranks of LSPD to Deputy Chief, leading the Counter-Terrorism Division and Special Operations Bureau during his time of service. Jacqueline Coburn stated that Chief Goodwater had served the city and it's people well, that his experience and passion qualified him to represent our Department and the men and women who have sworn to protect and serve. Shortly thereafter, Jacqueline Coburn invited Katherine Houghton onto the stage to sing the National Anthem. The Anthem was sung in both a beautiful and respectful manner before the podium was turned over to Senator Adrian Rossi. Senator Rossi is a former LSPD Sergeant who had served with Chief Goodwater in the past. The interaction between the two was nothing short of a strong display of camaraderie, respect, and friendship. Senator Rossi stated that Chief Goodwater is someone who is the literal definition of an individual that serves and protects; a true role model and inspiration for any and all he came across, regardless if they had a career in law enforcement or not. Senator Rossi spoke about the high standards to which Chief Goodwater held himself and others too, and how he had no doubt that the Chief would hold the entire police department to those standards in the future. Senator Rossi was honored to be a part of Chief Goodwater's appointment and personally commended him for his achievement of becoming Chief of the LSPD. At the end of his time at the podium, Senator Rossi turned to Chief Goodwater, congratulating him and wishing him success while serving and protecting Los Santos. Senator Rossi and Chief Goodwater shared a moment of brotherhood at the conclusion of his speech; something which certainly sprouted from their duration as fellow servicemen. After Senator Adrian Rossi vacated the podium, Mayor of Los Santos Marcus Cambridge took the podium. He noted the efforts and achievements that were made by the department under Chief of Police Jocelyn Ingram and that Chief Goodwater would be equally dedicated and prepared for the role. Mayor Cambridge stated that he had complete confidence in Chief Goodwater and he would continue to safeguard our citizens into the future. After a short speech he invited Chief Good water to the podium for his oath to office. After Chief Goodwater swore his oath, Mayor Cambridge retrieved a badge from the podium, pinning it onto the uniform of Chief Goodwater. At this time Chief Branch Goodwater himself turned to the podium to address the gathering of individuals. Chief Goodwater thanked those present and stated he was honored to stand before everyone. He thanked Chief Ingram, Assistant Chief Gallagher, Deputy Chief Ortega, and Chief of Staff Jacqueline Coburn for their leadership abilities. Chief Goodwater stated that he was honored to lead such a wonderful police department full of men and women who were willing to put their lives on the line for Los Santos on a daily basis. He noted that he didn't lead the department on his own, that it was both the officers and civilian employees who work tirelessly day and night for the community. Chief Goodwater said he was honored to serve alongside his fellow servicemen in his new capacity, just as he always had been, that together they would ensure that Los Santos and the State of San Andreas would be a safe place for all. Chief Goodwater then took time to specifically address the officers within the department, stating that he would do everything in his power to protect them and serve them so that at the end of every shift they could return to their family and Loved ones. Chief Goodwater emphasized that he and his team would be working as hard as they could to ensure police officers are provided with the tools necessary to safely enforce the laws of both the city and state. Chief Goodwater also affirmed that he looked forward to working with city leaders, the state senate, and fellow agencies to provide the community with nothing but exemplary service. Chief Goodwater paid tribute to all those that have fallen in the line of duty over the years, those who gave the ultimate sacrifice so that Los Santos and San Andreas could be a safer place. Chief Goodwater insisted that he would be there for officers to the best of his ability in moments of triumph, in moments of mourning and trials of hardship. He would be there to protect his officers and pick them up when they are low and applaud them as they succeed and respond to the call of duty, Chief Goodwater concluded his appointment ceremony with a call to prayer regardless of faith. He thanked God for the wonderful journey that is life. He prayed that the most gracious Father would watch over those that worked to protect their fellow man, woman, and child, knowing that they are prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice. Chief Goodwater prayed that when times are dark that God would protect everyone called to the line of duty. He prayed for God to watch over and protect every citizen of Los Santos and San Andreas. He Thanked God for his love, grace, and mercy before ending his prayer and wishing safety and peace upon all those present.
