CINCINNATI (Deb Dixon) -- A single mom and some attorneys were just some of the 56 new Cincinnati police officers sworn in Friday, Feb. 27. It's the first recruit class in six years. After 26 weeks of training, they're now being assigned to the city's neighborhoods. Now a Cincinnati police officer, this has been Abby Waymire's dream and she worked to make it come true.The girl with a dream joined a single mother, three lawyers, children of Cincinnati police officers, and 30 other recruits with college degrees in this 104th recruit class that included 20 veterans from every branch of service.Chief Jeffrey Blackwell talked about their new responsibility, "Don't do it unless it's something you would do with your mother watching. Do it the right way every time."Proud families filled the Masonic Center downtown; four generations were there for outstanding student Christopher Loreaux. His son, Uriah, said he was proud of his dad.The recruits will be going to work with people who need help at the Freestore Foodbank, rec centers, and senior centers because their job really is about serving Cincinnati.
