Corporal D. Elliott Anderson Jr. retires today after more than 26 years of service in the Chesterfield County Police Department. Elliott began his career with CCPD in 1998, and since then has served as a general instructor, a Crisis Intervention Team instructor, a crime prevention officer, a community engagement officer, a peer counselor, an LGBTQ+ liaison officer, and a recruiting officer. As a recruiter, he frequented community and hiring events, and served as one of the voices behind our CCPD Podcast. Elliott was part of workgroups that earned three Unit Citations, and a team that earned an Achievement Award for identifying and implementing significant improvements in the police recruiting process. He was a relationship builder, and never missed an opportunity to establish a problem-solving partnership with a community organization or member. We’ll miss his dedication, his hard work, and his truly outstanding sense of humor. Please join us today as we wish him all the best in his retirement!
