During her first month on the job, new San Mateo County Sheriff Christina Corpus – the first woman to hold the post – had to deal with a year's worth of crises, everything from floods to a mass shooting.
As part of Women's History Month, NBC Bay Area sat down with Corpus to discuss her challenges, her vision and the glass ceiling she's breaking."I was so proud to be standing in front of everybody as the first female Latina sheriff of this county," she said.Sign up for NBC Bay Area’s Housing Deconstructed newsletter.
It didn't take long for Corpus to earn her stars. It seems everything happened during her first month in office, including major flooding that forced evacuations. "People say you were baptized by fire," she said."We had an international child abduction the first month. We had a gang related shooting that happened in Half Moon Bay. We had the other horrific incident in Half Moon Bay."
That other horrific incident was the mass shooting that left seven farmworkers dead. The case is under gag order, which is why the sheriff can't talk about it.
