After eight months as interim Chief of the Seattle Police Department, Sue Rahr is stepping down, bringing an end to a transformative chapter for the department.

Ahead of her departure as Seattle's Interim Police Chief, Sue Rahr spoke at length to KIRO Newsradio about a series of topics.

Sue Rahr’s interim role as Seattle Police Chief winds down this week as the city prepares to welcome Mayor Bruce Harrell’s nominee Shon Barnes, chief of police in Madison, WI, as the new head of the agency.

Shon Barnes will head a department challenged by its last chief's firing, allegations of discrimination, staffing shortages and the vestiges of federal oversight.

Seattle’s newly appointed police chief, Shon Barnes, has arrived and is ready to lead the department in a new direction.

The Seattle Police Department’s Interim Chief Sue Rahr will vacate her office Wednesday to make way for new department chief Shon Barnes, according to memo emailed to the department Monday.

Trump continues his agenda to destabilize and dismantle the federal workforce. On Tuesday, the U.S. Office of Personnel Management emailed over 2 million federal employees, giving them the option to resign by February 6.

If there is any doubt about how happy Shon Barnes is to be the Seattle Police Department's new chief, the doubt ends now.
