Such a tragic loss. My condolences to Officer Russell's wife and family. There are never words that can describe the pain of a loss such as this one. One man doing his best to serve and protect and another with complete disregard for human life. I am just glad that his killer was caught and hope that justice will be swift. I have a thin blue line tag on my vehicle in rememberance of my Brother-in Law and all LEOs that have made the ultimate sacrifice. Officer Russell is now 10-7, I salute you Sir for your time served to this great nation. Godspeed.

No greater love has a man than this that he would lay down his life for his friends. California had a true friend in Trooper Russell in that he laid down his life for his friends, the citizens of California. Thank you to Trooper Russell's family for allowing him to be what he was. May God give you peace through these days and years ahead. Rest high on the mountain my friend and some day may we meet in God's heaven.
