For the past five months, we’ve heard from multiple people who called police officers in Prince William County everything, from racists to terrorists to members of the prison industrial complex.
These speakers stand at a microphone and voice their opinions during the citizen comment portion of the Supervisors’ meetings, are very vocal, have called for abolishing the police department altogether, and often evoke the applause of their supporters who stand outside the meeting room to rally for their cause.

For years, Prince William County residents have praised their police department.
Citizen satisfaction surveys dating back to 2007, when the county initiated its controversial immigration policy that initially required officers to check the legal immigration status of anyone suspected of being in the U.S. illegally, show the department received high marks from ethnicities across the board, including Asians, Blacks, Hispanics, and Whites.
