Clarkston has promoted a captain in its police department to serve as its new chief.
Christine Hudson was appointed to the new role Thursday, after serving as interim chief during a search to replace Tony Scipio, who retired in early January.
Hudson has worked in law enforcement for nearly 30 years, including time with the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office and Decatur Police Department, where she named 1991 Officer of the Year in DeKalb by the Georgia Bar Association.
In 2005, Hudson left Georgia for Iraq, where she worked to help train the Iraqi Police. Clarkston hired her in 2009.
