If you go by what is on Facebook, Mike Kelly doesn’t do anything as the City of Manteca’s Community Resource Officer. He’s only there for “publicity” according to one commenter in a community group – there to show his smiling face when the cameras are around and then return to whatever job it is that he does for the Manteca Police Department when the media isn’t around. But if you spend some time asking the homeless of Manteca who he is, it’s apparent that Kelly might be the one person in town that knows more about the trials and tribulations faced by people on the street than anybody else working to solve the problem.
