Mr. Speaker, I rise today to say thank you to Bill McManus, William McManus, who has announced his retirement as the chief of the San Antonio Police Department in the seventh largest city in the country. Chief McManus has been on board in San Antonio for some 8 years, but he brought with him 30 years of experience in law enforcement in such areas as diverse as narcotics, tactical positions, criminal investigations, internal investigations, the full range of experience. As a result of his service in San Antonio, their police department is more well-respected, more well-trained than ever in San Antonio's history. Chief McManus I first met when he was testifying before the legislature and I served as chair of the committee on criminal jurisprudence. I know well his passion for law enforcement and his passion for people. We will miss him dearly at the city, but we wish him well in his future endeavors. ____________________
