TMPA Officer of the Month

Irving Police Officer John Mitchell

We are delighted to announce that TMPA’s Officer of the Month is Officer John Mitchell, former president of the Irving Police Association, and active TMPA member.

His strong sense of identity as an officer and TMPA member, compassion for fellow officers and the citizens he serves, and values of speaking out for his brothers and sisters at the State Capitol go well beyond the call of duty.

Officer Mitchell has been a member of TMPA since he began his career in law enforcement. “TMPA offered the most personalized service. It has a great appeal because cops represent cops,” he shared.
