Seems I’m always writing about a cop getting shot or killed. Been a lot of that lately. Recently saw that a Tempe, AZ cop won the Miss Arizona contest and will soon compete for the title of Miss America. Not bad for a street cop, not bad at all.
The Officer, Candace Kanavel has been “on the job” for 6 years and is a hostage negotiator and a member of the Departments SWAT Team. Also quite an accomplishment for an Officer.
Officer Kanavel will use her platform as an Officer and Miss Arizona for her program of empowering girls and women to strive to be the best they can and strive for that goal we all set. Her designation also shows women that being a Police Officer can be rewarding in more than one form.
Congratulations to Officer Kanavel and the members of the Tempe Police Department. Kinda nice to write a story like this rather than the tales of cops being injured or killed in the line of duty.
Peace
