Fort Pierce Police Department welcomes 3 new officers

The Fort Pierce Police Department welcomed three new officers during an official swearing-in ceremony on May 17. Those officers – Methos Alvaro, Justice Feeley-Carim and Lissette Lopez – took the oath of office and were sworn in by Chief Diane Hobley-Burney in the presence of their family members, friends and colleagues.

During the ceremony, family members of the three officers participated by taking part in the pinning ceremony. Those family members had the pleasure of placing badges on the new officers. Methos was pinned by his mother, Penny Alvaro. Justice was pinned by his mother, Kathleen Feeley-Carim. Lissette was pinned by her father, Wilson Lopez.

The three new officers have entered the first phase of training with Road Patrol field training officers. Everyone at the Police Department welcomes them and wishes them long, successful careers as they proudly uphold our motto, “In Honor We Serve.”
