By implementing effective crime prevention strategies, Albert will create an environment where families feel safe, and businesses can thrive.

As Jackson’s next mayor, Albert will:

• We will change the climate and culture of Jackson, starting with my own City of Jackson police force. Any type of crime will not be tolerated, ignored, or justified, criminals will be sought after, arrested and face the maximum legal penalties available under the law for their actions.
• A coordinated partnership between JPD, Capitol Police and Hinds County Sheriff’s Department, community organizations, and the citizens of Jackson (if you see something, say something, if I say something, law enforcement got to do something)
• We will implement technology including upgrading/adding more high-definition security cameras, security drones, and develop an efficient call/monitoring management system.
• We will increase police presence in high-crime areas, which will also decrease response time.
• We will reduce crime, especially loss of life crimes. Whereby, removing the atmosphere of fear related to Jackson and make Jackson a safe place to live, to work, and to entertain.
• Take a preemptive approach to crime, “Stop a crime before it happens,” by implementing my SAFE MS innovative. This initiative will address the five main factors that cause a person to commit a crime. 5 Factors are Spiritual, Addictions, Financial, Emotional, and Mental Illness. This initiative will work with churches, psychiatrists, doctors, businesses, families, etc.
