Officer Craven, 25, stopped to assist motorists involved in a series of collisions along the freeway on Oct. 20 when she was struck by another vehicle. Despite efforts from first responders, she later died from her injuries.
“Officer Craven served her community with pride and dedication. Jennifer and I are heartbroken by her loss and the significant impact her passing leaves on the larger San Diego community,” Newsom stated. “We join her family, friends, and fellow officers in mourning. May her memory never be forgotten.”
Craven joined the La Mesa Police Department in 2024. According to the Governor’s Office, she is survived by her partner and her parents.
As a tribute to her service and sacrifice, flags at the State Capitol and the Capitol Annex Swing Space in Sacramento will be flown at half-staff.
La Mesa Police Department has not yet released additional details about memorial services but is expected to do so in the coming days.
