Troy Finner sworn in as Missouri City police chief
Summary
Troy Finner was sworn in as Missouri City’s new police chief at a standing-room-only ceremony at the community center. City leaders and regional partners praised his community-policing approach and emphasized trust, accountability and officer wellness.
Lynn Clouser, Missouri City’s mayor pro tem, opened a standing-room-only ceremony to swear in Troy Finner as the city’s new police chief, calling the event “momentous” and inviting regional leaders and law-enforcement partners to attend. Mayor Ellicott administered the oath of office; the ceremony included a proclamation from U.S. Rep. Al Green and an invocation.
Mayor Ellicott praised Finner’s record and framed public safety as built on “trust, professionalism, and deep connection between our officers and our residents,” and Angel L. Jones, the city manager, said the selection followed “a comprehensive national recruitment process with over 50 qualified applicants.” Chief Finner, who the program described as having more than 30 years of law-enforcement experience and senior executive training, told the audience he intends to pair targeted enforcement against repeat violent offenders with community-based responses and officer wellness programs. The emcee invited attendees to a brief reception and announced media staging for follow-up interviews.
