I'm very sorry for the loss of this officer being one myself. I know this will piss off the occasional liberal that visits this sight but i just feel like it should be that if an officer is killed and they catch his or her killer, then in return kill that person. why should the individual that killed the officer be allowed to breath air and live life and probably get life in jail on our expense. you took away this officers freedom and life so your life should be taken. RIP my brother, never forgotten

RIP and may your family have the strength to continue and remember you forever.

Now take those two pieces of s--t and one to the back of the head.

I have 30 years as and LEO and now my son is one too. I would just die should something happen to him like that.

God Bless and take care of our women and men who are a badge and carry a gun.
