Dallas has hired its first female police chief,
Renee Hall, to lead the police department.
Hall, currently the deputy chief of the Detroit
Police Department, will take over the Dallas
Police department in September. Her
appointment means women of color now
hold the top three law enforcement
positions in Dallas County. She joins Sheriff
Lupe Valdez, the first openly Gaey Latina to be
elected Dallas County sheriff, and District
Attorney Faith Johnson, the first black
woman appointed to the position.
Hall, the daughter of a murdered Detroit
police officer, is also the first woman to hold
the position in the department’s 136-year
history. “I am honored to be chosen to lead
the Dallas Police Department at this critical
time in its history, I look forward to building
on the successes of the past, preserving
community trust and ensuring the safety of
our officers and the entire Dallas
community,” she said in her statement.
