Phoenix Police Chief Jeri Williams to retire

Phoenix Police Chief Jeri Williams will retire this summer, the department announced on May 3.

"After much prayer and consideration and in consultation with my family and city leadership, I have decided to make a change," Chief Williams said in a statement. "There is never a perfect time to transition but the time feels right for me now to step aside. Just like when I felt called to do this job, I also feel called right now to go in a new direction, allowing me the rare opportunity to prioritize family and explore future endeavors."
