Our speaker was Deputy Police Chief Sean Riley, accompanied by Chief Lester Baker, who spoke about the Framingham Police Department. Current staffing totals 136 with 22-24 police out in the community working in one of the three 8 hour shifts. There are 5 police in the nine month training program.
Sean then spoke about the District Dispatch Center which will cover the 911 calls for Framingham, Wayland and Natick starting in Summer 2026. In the future, as part of the Computer Aided Dispatch (CAD) System, Dispatch will have access to public, business and private (upon request) cameras to assist in crime prevention and detection.
Currently, Framingham police wear personal cameras when on duty (which were not on during Sean’s talk). License plate cameras are currently being used in police cars to facilitate identification.
