“It’s truly as surreal as it was for me the very first time I played. I’m genuinely humbled that Survivor looks at me as one of their top winners, so much that they would invite me back to play again not once, but TWICE!,” Vlachos said on his Survivor casting profile.
“Being a part of this unimaginable milestone of a season is HUGE!”
According to state public records, Vlachos has been a member of the JCPD since February 1st, 2000 and he works in the North District, Mayor Steven Fulop tweeted.
