Sharon Lubinski, a law enforcement veteran who most recently had been assistant police chief in Minneapolis, will be sworn in today as Minnesota's U.S. marshal.
She'll take the oath of office at a 10 a.m. ceremony at the federal courthouse in Minneapolis, and will include speeches by Sen. Amy Klobuchar, Chief U.S. District Judge Michael Davis, and retired Minneapolis and Bloomington police Chief John Laux.
Lubinski will be the first openly gay U.S. marshal in the country, and the first female to hold the post in Minnesota.
