WRAP Taps Former NYPD Chief Behind Narcan Rollout to Scale BolaWrap and Operationalize De-Escalation

William J. Bratton, Former NYPD Police Commissioner

“Under my command, Ed Delatorre demonstrated the kind of leadership it takes to turn a promising idea into meaningful, lasting change. He helped take the NYPD’s Narcan program from a local pilot to citywide implementation, and I later sent him to the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) to help other departments adopt similar programs. What began locally became a model shared nationally and internationally, reflecting Ed’s ability to bring people together, turn ideas into practice, and share lessons that could benefit communities far beyond New York”

Scot Cohen, Chief Executive Officer of WRAP

“With the launch of our operationalized de-escalation program, WRAP is finally in a position to support major cities with an integrated approach that brings together policy, training, and non-lethal technology. Ed understands what it takes to put new capabilities into practice at scale. His experience will be invaluable as we help departments give officers more options to resolve difficult encounters while protecting the people on both sides of the badge.”

Edward Delatorre Jr., Former NYPD Deputy Commissioner and WRAP Board Director

“Throughout my career, I’ve seen how much preparation goes into giving officers an option they can confidently use in the field. Equipment, policy, training, and leadership all have to work together. I look forward to bringing that perspective to WRAP’s Board and supporting the Company’s work to help agencies prepare their officers for difficult encounters.”
