THANK YOU, SGT. JUDY RACOW

Amidst all of the commotion in the world of the past few weeks, we wish to acknowledge the recent retirement and outstanding career of long-time Winthrop Police Sergeant Judy Racow. It’s hard to believe that it was more than 27 years ago that Judy Racow joined the Winthrop P.D. Time flies!

Shortly after Sgt. Racow joined the local police force, she often went undercover for drug investigations, one of the most dangerous assign- ments for any police officer. Her harrowing experience in 1995, when a drug suspect tried to kid- nap her and she struggled with the suspect and ultimately assisted with his arrest, earned her the highest medal that can be bestowed upon a Massachusetts police officer, the Trooper George L. Hanna Memorial Award for Bravery. Upon receiving the award, Sgt. Racow said, “I was faced with a scary situation, the one where every officer battles with the question of wheth- er or not they will be going home that night. You’re scared and emotion- ally upset, but then you do it all over again. It was a bad situation. I went home that night, and the bad guy went to jail. It’s an honor to receive this dedication in the name of all law enforcement officers, not only for the town of Winthrop, but as a whole nationwide for the work we do.” to the Editor She is the only officer from Winthrop and one of only 19 women to be LETTER the recipient of the Hanna Award since its inception in the 1980s. “CAN’T DO THAT” ents, Aunt or Uncle or Elder- much longer that we can Sgt.
