Speaking

Book Candy Priano for your next meeting. She will share her story with your group so they can learn about the other side of vehicular police pursuits.

“I was helpless to save my daughter Kristie’s life,” says Candy Priano. “So I work to correct the problem that caused her tragedy. I want no one else to have to suffer the pain my family endures.”

Candy’s passion lies with the mission of PursuitSAFETY—to reduce the number of unnecessary vehicular pursuits, so no other person has to suffer the pain of the death or injury of someone they love. Pursuits of nonviolent offenders too often kill the innocent and are the most difficult to comprehend, leaving questions unanswered about the need for such chases for the family members left behind.

With assistance from others, Candy founded and became the Victim Services Director of PursuitSAFETY. She is committed to saving lives—the lives of both innocent bystanders and police officers. When giving a presentation, she not only shares her personal story about her daughter, Kristie, she also selects a card, a letter, or poem from the treasures she has received from other families and tells their personal story, too.
