Baltimore Policewoman Honored For 40-Plus Years Of Service
Martha Sprinkle is believed to be the the longest-serving active female police officer in the United States.
BALTIMORE, MD — When someone has been around for decades, it could take a lot to surprise them. But on one particular day at Baltimore City Police headquarters, a veteran officer got the surprise of her life.
When Officer Martha Sprinkle walked out into the first-floor lobby of the building off East Fayette Street, she saw long time co-workers who had become friends, Police Commissioner Michael Harrison and several members of her family.
