Watson joined the same department in 2016, where she became a K-9 officer and is recognized for numerous drug and theft ring busts, according to the Constable's office. In February 2023, she was awarded Officer of the Year.
"When I started eight years ago, I was maybe of one of two females on my shift and now we have about the same amount of women as we do men," Watson said.
