Statement from Mayor Brian P. Stack

 

“I am disappointed in the decision of the Union City Board of Education to host a substance abuse event featuring Lillo Brancato as the guest speaker. While I fully support programs addressing substance abuse awareness, I echo the statement made by the Union City FOP and PBA that Mr. Brancato was a horrible choice and that there could have been other powerful speakers to present on this important issue. His role in the death of New York City Police Officer Enchautegui should preclude him from this type of event. An anti-drug message is one that our children need to hear over and over again – Brancato is just the wrong messenger. I have reached out to the Union City FOP, Union City PBA, New York City PBA, NJ State PBA and FOP to express my concerns. My support of the men and women of the law enforcement community remains resolute.”
