Reflections for Police Officer Robert Nguyen

May your family be surrounded by support through this seemingly avoidable tragedy. I hope accountability will ultimately be determined. May you walk through the gates of heaven and continue your "tour". Please watch over the rest of us LEO's.

“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 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.

I prayed all day Christmas day long that no officer would be killed, and when I went to sleep, no new officers had been added to the list for the day. Opening up this site to see that not only one but two officers had been killed, my stomach turned. My condolences to your family, for Christmas day, nor every other day, will ever be the same. May you RIP, sir

Brother Nguygen,

May the road rise up to meet you,
May the wind be always at your back,
May the sun shine warm upon your face,
And the rains fall soft upon your fields,
And until we meet again,
May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

Respectfully,
You’re Brothers in Blue

My sincere sympathy goes out to JCPD and Roberts' family. JCPD lost a great person. I had the honor of going through the police academy with Rob, he was our class leader for class 27-01 "Power, Pride, and Determination" and ill say one thing Rob had that all in him as a recruit and as a police officer. Ill will never forget you Rob for the way you were and always will be. Heaven must have needed you to go patrol the skies up there. Im sure you will do a hell of a job there too as you did here. Rest easy my friend, watch over all of those that knew you, and let those who wear the police uniform take it from here - Your watch is over.
