                  CELEBRATING THE CAREER OF LISA REED

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 29, 2012

  Mr. LANCE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the work of Lisa 
Reed for her accomplished career in public service to the State of New 
Jersey. Lisa began her career in law enforcement with the Plainfield 
Police Department. She later joined the Hunterdon County Prosecutor's 
Office where she specialized in sexual assault and child abuse 
investigations.
  Her distinguished work prompted her promotion to Detective Sergeant 
and supervisor of the Sex Crimes and Child Abuse Unit. She was a 
tremendous asset and valued member of the Prosecutor's Office and her 
portfolio expanded to homicides and narcotics. Lisa was later assigned 
to the Somerset County Police Academy as the Continuing Education 
Coordinator. There she shared her expertise with young officers until 
her retirement in 2005.
  Lisa developed a small business with her talents, Lisa S. Reed 
Investigations of Flemington, New Jersey. Lisa's most noted 
accomplishment is her vital role in the arrest of Roger Day, a fugitive 
who led an international conspiracy to defraud the military. This 
criminal was named a member of ``America's Most Wanted'' and Lisa's 
work was part of a three-year effort that brought Roger Day to justice.
  Lisa Reed is an outstanding public servant who has continually 
demonstrated bravery in the critical area of public safety. I 
congratulate her on this long and distinguished career.
