"We picked TJ and Kayla up at their residence in the morning, visited with their classmates at their school, they were sworn in to their positions by the Mayor, toured the Police Department and conducted business in their respective offices," said Det. Sgt. John Devine.
After visiting the Bergen County Justice Center, the children were treated to a luncheon at The Landmark.
