A look into world of police

FORTY FORT – A daughter of a longtime police chief, Mia Rinaldi has already learned there is a lot more to police work than a trooper sitting on the interstate with a radar gun.

In the past eight weeks of the Citizens’ Police Academy, a class held annually by Pennsylvania State Police, Rinaldi, a Luzerne County Community College sophomore who is pursuing a career in criminal justice, gained insight into a few of the organization’s many specialized divisions.

“I like investigations. It just interests me,” said Rinaldi, 19.

Rinaldi, whose father is the police chief for Pittston Township, was one of 19 people who received a graduation certificate for participating in the academy Thursday night.
