LA's Crime Fighting Females

What it takes to be a weapon wielding woman of the law Being a cop in Los Angeles is a dangerous job dominated by men.While the dangers are apparent, many women, such as LAPD officer Heidi Stoecklein, seek out a career in law enforcement.Stoecklein -- who is stationed at the Olympic Division -- says "death is a huge danger, in this, and that's what we have to always keep in mind when we're out there to keep ourselves safe, our partners safe," but adds, "its a wonderful rewarding career, and I want twenty more years of this." CHP Officer Kerri Rivas concurs and says being in the academy is no different whether you're a male or female. However, once out in the field, there are challenges females face that their male counterparts don't have to deal with. The LAPD and CHP both have hundreds of female officers on the force.
Recently, the LAPD celebrated 100 years of women in policing.
