Reflections for Police Officer John C. Knight

THE TRIAL HAS BEEN GOING ON THIS WEEK. YOUR WIFE IS AMAZING, I WOULDN'T HAVE HAD THE STRENGTH TO ENDURE WHAT SHE AND THE KIDS HAVE FOR THE LAST 5 PLUS YEARS. I KNOW JUSTICE WILL BE DONE. YOU ARE TRULY A HERO AND SO IS YOUR FAMILY. ALL THE NEIGHBORS MISS YOU.

Thinking of John and his family this week as his killer is finally brought to trial, and especially today, the fifth anniversary of his murder. May we all stand tall and stand proud, and do you honor.

On 08-14-2003, my recruit class at the Arizona Law Enforcement Academy read Officer Knights memorial page. Each day before our defensive tactics class we remember all those that have given their lives.
Today my class worked hard in memory of Officer Knight. You will not be forgotten.
May God Bless You and Your Family and all your fellow Chicago Police Officers, including my brother.

You and your family are in my thoguhts today. Sleep well, my brother.

Some days come and change the lives of everyone. On 09 JAN 99 your life was changed forever, as well as the people around you. When I think of how I do my job, I take great pride in knowing that I have served with one of Chicago's Finest. You are in the back of my mind always. Your spirit DOES live on in those who were lucky enough to have known you.

John Knight was one of those guys. One that you immediately knew you were going to like. He had an ever present smile. He had a zest for police work. He wanted to be a difference maker and indeed he was. John had knicknames for everyone and in the years that I knew him I never once heard him say a bad word about anyone.
We miss you Johnny. We miss you today and everyday from here to enternity.

GOD BLESS YOU OFFICER KNIGHT. THE JOB YOU DID WAS GREATLY APPRECIATED.
