Prince George’s Top Cop retires
PRINCE GEORGE – After eight years at the Prince George RCMP detachment, first as an Inspector and then as Superintendent, Shaun Wright has decided it is time to turn over the role to someone else. He says it’s been well worth it.
“Policing is an excellent opportunity to help not only individuals but society as a whole, particularly in the RCMP. There is a wealth of opportunities, and I don’t even know how many hundred job functions are in this organization. But there’s something for everyone and you can find your niche. It’s punishing and rewarding all at the same time. And I know when I started there were old timers who told me in my first week, ‘Oh my God, I can’t believe you’re starting to do this now. Society’s changed and get out all you can, and I don’t regret one minute of it.”
