QUOTES:
Brian Rabion – Allied Universal Regional Director of Security for Southwest Region
I’m so proud of our team and the vital support we provide the LAPD each day. This commendation not only recognizes our close daily work with the department, but in particular, the important daily alerts our team provided during the riots and protests from May 2020 to Feb. 2021 throughout the Greater Los Angeles area, which continue today. Our partners at the LAPD informed us that daily shift briefings didn’t begin until they received our daily alerts. That is an impactful statement illustrating the importance of our jobs as security professionals to local law enforcement agencies.
