And to do that, she needed to attend a 19-week course at Washington’s Basic Law Enforcement Academy.
Executive Dow Constantine and other county leaders attended her graduation at the Burien Academy. The event was live-streamed at 11 a.m. .
Cole-Tindall was unanimously confirmed by the King County Council back on May 18, 2022.
She is the first person of color to serve as King County Sheriff.
