SEATTLE (AP) — Former Seattle Police Chief Carmen Best has joined KING-TV as a law enforcement analyst.

News Director Pete Saiers said Monday that at a time when they are reporting extensively on issues of law enforcement, audiences will benefit from hearing her unique expertise and perspective.

Best joined the police department in 1992 and became Seattle’s first Black police chief more than two years ago. She retired last month amid a controversy over proposed police cuts and the department’s response to protests.
