Our thoughts and prayers go out to this fine officers family and brother officers. May God be with all that have been affected by this tragic event.

My heart goes out to the Ericsson family. Agent Ericsson's mission at work was to fight narcotics and ironically, while off duty no less,it's what caused his life to be taken. That fight shall continue in Agent Ericsson's name and in the name of all who have died as a result, directly or indirectly, of drug abuse and illegal drug use.

May God be with the Ericsson family at this sad time and may they keep with them the knowledge that Choc isn't really gone so long as he lives in their hearts and minds.

Rest in Peace, Brother.

“REMEMBER ME”
Law enforcement officers are, indeed, a special breed of people. Ask anyone on the street and they will tell you that they would not have our jobs for anything in the world. It takes something special to do what we do and at the same time be able to even contemplate retirement. We try to be optimists. Unfortunately, there are a few of us who will never make that date with retirement. By the very nature of our job, we are at risk everyday of losing our lives, either at the hand of some deranged individual or in some other situation that we, by virtue of our occupation, may be unable to avoid. Some people have recognized the hazardous duties we involve ourselves in, the risks we take, and the pride we take in accomplishing that job. There is National Law Enforcement Week, dedicated to us who gladly accept the responsibility of protecting the citizens in our respective jurisdictions. National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Day is dedicated to those who gave their lives in the line of duty. These are but a two examples of remembrances specifically for law enforcement personnel. Remembrances that come but once a year. We should remind fellow officers of another type of remembrance, one that will last a lifetime. Sooner or later, a doctor will pronounce us dead. It is inevitable. Regardless of whatever happens, death is the end we will all have to face.
