Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Lord Jesus, as we watch America’s Peace Officers succumb to the wicked and evil in this world, Shot and Killed in the Line-of-Duty, it becomes difficult for us to pick up and move forward. Our communities are on the brink of exploding with tension. In light of the peace officers who are no longer with us, I pray for endurance for our communities and law enforcement agencies. Carry us through this time of strife, that through our struggles, our bonds may grow even more unbreakable. In Your mighty and holy name, I pray. Amen.

Holy Scriptures on Law Enforcement’s Mission:

“For the policeman [peace officer] does not frighten people who are doing right; but those doing evil will always fear him. So if you don’t want to be afraid, keep the laws and you will get along well. The policeman [peace officer] is sent by God to help you. But if you are doing something wrong, of course you should be afraid, for he [the peace officer] will have you punished. He [the peace officer] is sent by God for that very purpose. Obey the laws, then, for two reasons: first, to keep from being punished, and second, just because you know you should.” [Romans 13:3-5 TLB]

[Jesus Said,] “Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.” [John 15:13 ESV]

And he [Jesus] said to him, “Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.” [Luke 23:43 ESV]

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons [children] of God.” [Matthew 5:9 ESV]

“And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.” [Isaiah 6:8 ESV]

I was one of the responding officers on this murder. Trevor essentially solved it for us by defending himself.

We completed basic training together and earned the title with one another at MCRD in San Diego. I’ll never forget having to look at your ugly mug standing across from me every morning while standing online in our skivvies. Now I live in Las Vegas and you’re gone! This isn’t how it was supposed to be. I think about you all the time, and I miss you man. I could really use some help down here so if you are hearing me, let me know!
RIP Marine

I worked with SSgt Nettleton in DC for a while before the Marine Corps sent us on separate paths. I am truly sorry to have only now learned of his passing. As others have said he was tough, competent, and had high standards. He helped me with my firearms training, specifically the pistol. I still follow his advice to this day. He will be missed. I hope he and his family find peace.

I did not know Trevor personally. I heard of his passing on the news when it first happend. I too lost my husband in 2004 from medical issues. He was only 28. Heres the ironic thing.... Trevor is buried just a few graves away from my husband. I know this because just a few days after Trevors burial I casually walked over to be nosey and see all the beautiful flowers. I immediatley realized he was the policeman from tv! I even noticed that you guys left him a plate for Thanksgiving. My heart just broke when I saw that. My kids were very young when I lost my husband- 6, 3 and 1. Although its been a few years already..... may your family forever have peace. xoxo

Dear Mr. James,

Thank you for your kind words about my son. I just came across your post today. I'd like to think that as I read this, Trevor was watching over me, as he has ever since the night he was defending myself, his wife and his beautiful children. It's wonderful to hear stories from those who knew him.

I just found out about Trevor from a friend's post of Facebook concerning one of the individuals that killed Trevor. We worked and travelled together while stationed in D.C. I used to get e-mails from Trevor while I was deployed over seas in the Navy. Most of the time they were jokes, or something amusing, that would make me laugh or smile and were always appreciated. When they quit coming, I thought it was just because things got too busy with work/family, or other things took precedence. I read through many of the posts others have left and it's obvious that he never changed. When Trevor joined the Marines, he selflessly put the well-being of others before his own and put himself in harms way to protect those that could not do so for theirself. Along the way, he passed his knowledge, training, and values down to those he was responsible for and enabled them to do their job with the utmost readiness and professionalism. It's no wonder that he would trade in one uniform for another that allowed him to continue on with the same values of Honor, Courage, and Commitment, that he learned in the United States Marine Corp. It's no wonder that he still wore a uniform that put the well being of others before his own. And it's no wonder he still put himself in harms way between those that would do harm and those that could not protect their self. Trevor will continue to be an inspiration and a hero to me. I will always be indebted for the sacrifices he, and his family, endured, as a Marine and as a policeman, that allow me to live my life today. To his family and friends, words can not reflect how sorry I am for your loss. Trevor was a great person, Marine, and friend. I would appreciate if someone would read this to him for me.

T,

It's hard to believe it's been three years without hearing from you and wishing that I can just be able to pick up the phone and hear your voice and tell you all that is going on right now I got so much to tell you, but that's gonna have to wait until I see you on the other side. Tomorrow's your birthday and I got the Coronas on ice for a toast. Keep the high ground and take care my brother.

Trevor was a great, great man. A nicer guy you will never meet. I often ran into him during our shifts. Since we were both Marines we spoke often about it. I think of him almost everyday. He will live in my mine forever.
