Tracy spent the next several weeks gathering information and locations of daycare facilities in Knoxville. That information is now being sorted through and will be matched up with the sex offender information over the next few weeks.

Chief Owen said, "Tracy's outstanding work will mean once the project has been completed officers on the street will have access to this information via their in-car laptops 24/7 without the need to contact someone from the Crime Analysis Unit. This will greatly enhance the officers' knowledge when responding to a report of a missing child or other child in danger related calls."

Mayor Haslam said, "Tracy has put forth a tremendous effort in gathering and mapping sex offenders in relation to daycare centers. We commend her for her actions and for her work in helping to protect our most precious resource - our children."

Chief Owen said, "Because we feel this project is extremely beneficial to our officers and to the safety of our children, this information will be presented to daycare directors during a training seminar in early December. We believe this will help daycare centers further protect their children."

Tracy will receive a signed certificate from the Mayor and Chief along with a free dinner from Bayou Bay Seafood House.
