Officer Kristin Knight is replacing Patricia Powell as LGBT liaison for the Atlanta Police Department. Officer Brian Sharp also remains as an LGBT liaison.
“I’m looking forward to this wonderful and challenging opportunity to serve as a link between the LGBT community and the brave men and women of the Atlanta Police Department,” Knight said in a press release distributed by APD.
“As a proud member of both the gay community and the APD, I will take great pride and care in ensuring we continue our mutual respect and understanding," she said. "The LGBT liaisons are instrumental in helping foster those partnerships that are at the core of our mission here at APD.”
