Po Sledge and I worked the scooter chart together,,, Sledge was assigned to the 69, I was in HPD.... he was relentless in keeping the streets safe.
I admired his approach to police work and his dedication was unsurpased.
I lost many nights sleep after his death. Our charts overlapped except for saturday... I was RDO on that unforgettable day... Cant express how many times I would think,,, if only I was working that day....
RIP my brother...
