    $\begingroup$ I feel like it's not unreasonable for a police officer to refer to a CEO involved in a case somehow as "our CEO" in a similar manner to "our witness," "our suspect," or "our waiter" (if something happened at a restaurant, for example). Not necessarily saying that he was literally the CEO of the police. $\endgroup$
