I would like to welcome everyone to the Stockton Police Department's debut in the use of social media. This is an exciting day; the use of social media is going to allow us the opportunity to interact more readily with the most valuable resource we have in fighting crime - that is you - the community we serve.
Thank You
Chief of Police
Eric Jones
