Bill > HJR1194

This resolution, a formal expression of opinion by the Tennessee House of Representatives and Senate, honors and commends FTO Kristen Thomas, a Field Training Officer with the Chattanooga Police Department (CPD), for receiving the CPD Lifesaving Medal. The resolution details her heroic actions on October 5, 2025, when she responded to a serious car crash with multiple victims. Despite chaotic conditions and limited immediate assistance, FTO Thomas demonstrated exceptional composure and skill, assessing victims and coordinating resources. Crucially, she recognized a victim with a life-threatening leg injury and severe blood loss, and swiftly applied a tourniquet to stop the bleeding, a decisive action that medical professionals later confirmed was instrumental in saving the victim's life, thereby upholding the highest standards of courage and dedication to duty.
