Larry Snelling

Larry Snelling, wearing the CPD's dress blue uniform, raises his right hand while facing the camera. Ana Valencia raises her right hand while facing Snelling. Valencia has long black hair and is wearing a multicolored red and black blouse. In the background, outgoing interim superintendent Fred Waller, a bald Black man wearing a suit, is slightly out of focus and facing the camera and Valencia, watching Snelling take the oath of office. The wall behind them is gray marble. Several other people are out of focus in the background.
