FTPD Makes History With First Female Black Lieutenant

FTPD Lieutenant Jolanda Lacewell is the first female Black police lieutenant in township history.

A bit of township history was commemorated at the December 8 Township Council meeting when the FTPD’s first female Black lieutenant was among 11 command-level officers who received their ceremonial swearings-in.

Lt. Jolanda Lacewell, a 24-year veteran with the Franklin Township Police Department, and her 10 colleagues were ceremonially sworn in during the Council’s final virtual meeting of the year.
