Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell announced on Wednesday that Sue Rahr will serve as the Interim Police Chief for the city's police department. Rahr is an American law enforcement officer who served as the Sheriff of King County , Washington from 2005 to 2012.She began her law enforcement career as a deputy with the King County Sherriff’s Office in 1979, and worked her way up through the ranks. In 2005, she was elected to sheriff and served for another seven years, retiring in 2012.
"Diaz should be commended by putting the needs of the city first," Harrell said during Wednesday's news conference. "He has agreed to work on special projects and realized that the kind of cultural change that we want, can be best served by him stepping aside."Diaz had led the department since September 2020, taking over as interim chief for Carmen Best. Two years later, Harrell named Diaz as chief. He has been with the agency since 1997.
