Police Sgt. Kimberly Munley ABC News Photo
Sgt. Kimberly Munley is the police woman credited with taking down Ft. Hood killer Nidal Malik Hasan. Who knows how many more lives would have been lost if not for her actions? The New York Daily News reports:
Munley, who had been trained in active-response tactics, rushed into the building and confronted the shooter as he was turning a corner, Cone said.
“It was an amazing and an aggressive performance by this police officer,” Cone said.
Munley could not be reached Friday. In a posting on her Twitter page, she wrote: “I live a good life….a hard one, but I go to sleep peacefully @ night knowing that I may have made a difference in someone’s life.”
Munley was only a few feet from Army psychiatrist Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan when she opened fire.
Wounded in the exchange of bullets, the 34-year-old Munley was reported in stable condition at a local hospital.
The diminutive Munley – she stands 5-foot-4 and weighs about 120 pounds – served as a cop in Wrightsville Beach, N.C., before she moved to Texas to enlist in the military, friends said.
She is married with two daughters and is no longer in the armed forces.
“She’s the happiest, sweetest, most fun-loving girl you’d ever want to be friends with – and never want to cross,” Peterson said.
The hero cop spent Thursday night phoning fellow officers to let them know she was fine and to find out about casualties in the attack – the deadliest ever on a military base in the U.S., Cone said.
I hope Sgt. Munley has a speedy recovery. God bless her and the victims and their families.
This American hero has more courage in her little pinky than our President will ever have. She is the epitome of American bravery and giving. She is what is right with our country and it will never go out of style.

I assume she will be put on administrative leave pending investigation and dismissal.
