In a statement sent to News 9 on Tuesday, Caudill says "I made a very big mistake acting completely out of character. Now I must learn from it and make sure it never happens again. I promise you it will not."

Caudill also said in the statement that she will "always continue to be honored to serve as your Oklahoma County Clerk."
