Officer Picagli, directing traffic can be a breeze and something to have fun with, but it’s never something to be taken lightly. I mourn your passing and my heart and my prayers go out to your family at the New Haven PD and most especially to your wife and children. They will miss you terribly, but they’ll always feel you near.

God Bless and Rest in Peace, Brother.
