A few weeks before starting the Police Academy, Sara Riley watched previous LMPD graduations on Facebook, curious as to how many females were in the previous classes. While watching the MAC 56 graduation, a very handsome young man caught her eye. Being the sleuth that she is, Sara Riley found out that this cutie was Peyton. Sara Riley found him on Instagram and sent him a friend request. Peyton was skeptical about this random friend request, but accepted nonetheless. The initial communication was disguised as Sara Riley wanting academy advice. Peyton kindly obliged and sent what Sara Riley describes as a “novel” of advice. Their Instagram messaging moved to text messaging and then to FaceTime, where Peyton asked Sara Riley out on their first date. They met the next night for dinner (October 21, 2023) and from that day, their love story began… and here they are today, planning their wedding and planning their future together.
