Mayor Michael Amabile
There's a division in most major police departments called, 'Special Victims Unit,' which is what sex crimes are euphemistically called. They're considered the most heinous crimes, when not only do you violate somebody, but you violate them sexually. So it's an elite squad that takes care of that.
