A little over two years ago I lost a close friend and co-worker in a similar manner. Although there is nothing any of us can write to take away the pain and sorrow a senseless act of violence such as this creates; this short story helped me through a very difficult time. My prayers are with both of your families Detective Daniel Enchautegui, you immediate family and with the men and women of the New York Police Department.


The Policeman’s Last Roll Call

The Policeman stood and faced his lord,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shinning,
Just as brightly as his brass.
“Step forward now Policeman.
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other
Cheek? To my church have you been True?”

The Policeman squared his shoulders and said, "No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Because those of us who carry badges can't always be a Saint. I've had to
work most Sundays, and at times my talk was rough, and sometimes I've been
violent because the streets are awfully tough. But I never took a penny that
wasn't mine to keep, though I worked a lot of overtime when the bills just
got to steep. And I never passed a cry for help, though times I shook with
fear. And sometimes, God forgive me, I've wept many unmanly tears. I know I
don't deserve a place among the people here; they never wanted me around
except to calm their fear. If you've a place for me Lord, it needn't be so
grand. I never expected or had too much, but if you don't, I'll understand."

There was silence all around the throne where the Saints had often trod. As
the policeman waited quietly, for the judgment of his God. "Step forward
now, policeman, you've borne your burdens well. Come walk a beat on Heaven's
streets, you've done your time in hell."

A true hero who acted in the most responsible and professional manner possible. A warrior who deserved better and who set the bar high for those who choose to follow. My prayers for the family and for justice for a fallen brother. You are not forgotten Daniel!

I had the pleasure of working with Dan at the 40 Pct., he was a great guy. He always had a goofy smile on his face and was always there to back you up. He is a true hero and I am glad to have had the pleasure to know him. He will be missed.

Daniel,

It’s funny, in the few short years you spent at the 40 Precinct, I could never pronounce your name or even spell it. But now, I say it proudly Detective Enchautegui, because of having known you, worked with you, and shared this NYPD uniform with you. Now, I will never forget your name, none of us will. Till we meet again Brother, God Bless You.

Daniel,

How great a man you were. Thank you for being an great cop and an even greater human being.
Look at all the brother and sister officers from all across this great country that added a reflection here on this site.
Look at all the officers who took the trip to NYC on a freezing day to salute you.

Thank You

My deepest sympathies to the family and friends of Det. Enchautegui.

Reality

Imagine how our world would be
If every police officer quit
Turned in their gun, turned in their badge,
Just finally had enough of it.

No respect, no loyalty,
No appreciation of all they do,
They’d give their lives for all of us,
These wonderful officers of “Blue”.

Kicked at, spit on,
Punched, stabbed and shot,
Everyday assaults on officers,
Done…without thinking a second thought!

Our laws are in favor of criminals,
There’s always some loophole in their case,
Out again to commit more crimes and murders
…creates pain, that we, the family and friends
…in time will never erase.

Why should they do it?
Why take the risk?
Why put their life on the line?
Subject their loved ones to endless suffering,
When their precious life is lost while fighting crime.

More murders, more kidnappings, more robberies and rapes,
Just to mention a few,
Please ask yourself how life would be,
If there were NO officers in Blue!

Would you do it? Could you do it?
And for how many…would YOU give it all?
Rewards are a 21 gun salute, a Medal of Honor,
And your name gets added to the Wall.

Think about it. Why are they here?
And why do some hate them so?
Because they enforce the laws that put convicts and murderers
In jail serving time, or on “Death Row”.

All give some and some give all,
It’s a risk they chose to take:
To put their heart and soul in it,
To put their lives at stake.

So, please take a moment,
Please give it deep thought,
Think of what “you can do”…

To help show respect,
To help follow the laws,
So we’d quit losing our Heroes in Blue!

Daniel and family,
Integrity matters, you obviously were taught this through your life. I did not know you , however, the qualities that you have, should be instilled in every law enforcement agency and person(s)(officers)in our great country, i am holding my daughter writing this and realizing the reason i feel safe is because people like you exist. THANK YOU
for your hard work,and enforcement of the law that governs our nation , you will be sorely missed..

Daniel, would that I had had the privilege of meeting you; even in the last moments of your life, your first loyalty was to duty and your fellow man. The greatest generation is not yet all gone; they live on in men and women like Officer Enchautegui. As long as there are people like these in our midst to inspire us, this will remain the most blessed nation on earth. Rest well, sir.

Dan, We are all missing you already. Believe me when I say the courage you had is on the minds of all of us in the 4-oh! Myself along with others in the command can't stress how lucky we are to have known and worked with such a brave and dedicated man. I only pray that I should be as brave as you were in any similar situation.

You'll forever be remembered brother!
