Since becoming Mulberry’s chief of police, Joe Adelman has made it his mission to serve the people of his small town, and its surrounding area. It is not always easy in the poverty-stricken town, especially in today’s economy. Adelman and his officers spent much of the summer passing out food and water to those who needed it, and continue doing the same over the winter. But Adelman says he doesn’t have the resources necessary, so he recently asked for help from an unlikely source. In a letter to rap artist Izzy White, founder of a Maryland-based charity dedicated to helping anyone in need, regardless of circumstances, Adelman laid out his dilemma, saying his resources are stretched because “the homeless population is sometimes larger than the actual population of the town I serve.” In response to his letter, Izzy’s Angels appeared in Mulberry.
