'Good to be home': Johnson is first woman to be Snohomish County sheriff

EVERETT — Her election campaign felt like the “longest job interview” to Susanna Johnson.

But now the first woman to serve as sheriff in Snohomish County really knows who she works for, she said at her swearing-in ceremony Tuesday.

“It did give me an opportunity to meet with literally more than a thousand people communicating as to what you need, what you want, and what you’re looking for,” Johnson said in a speech to about 300 people at the PUD Auditorium in Everett.

Snohomish County Superior Court Judge Patrick Moriarty swore in Johnson as the 33rd sheriff of Snohomish County. The crowd greeted her with a standing ovation. Over a dozen of Johnson’s command staff appointees were sworn in, too.
