~ Spokane Welcomes New Deputy Police Ombuds Lissa Mascio

The City of Spokane has announced the hiring of Lissa Mascio as the new Deputy Police Ombuds. The decision was made after a thorough national search and Mascio's impressive qualifications.

Mascio brings a wealth of experience to her new role, having previously served as the Deputy and acting Legislative and Policy Director for the New Hampshire Office of the Child Advocate. In this position, she oversaw child welfare ombuds services and worked on behalf of domestic violence victims. She also has a background in prosecuting abuse and neglect cases, as well as representing parents in the child welfare system.

Originally from Queens, New York, Mascio spent most of her childhood in New Hampshire before living in various other states such as Arizona and Vermont. She holds a B.A. in Journalism and English from the University of New Hampshire and later attended Hofstra Law School in Hempstead, New York.

According to Police Ombuds Bart Logue, Mascio was a unanimous choice for the position due to her strong legal background and experience with oversight of corrections and law enforcement use of force. He believes her previous role as a Deputy in a state-level ombuds office will ensure a smooth transition into her new position.
