Policeman Perkins - The circumstances of your death are so tragic. Cut down so young - it seems so unfair. Fairness, however, isn't always applied in this job. Please, Sir, rest in peace and be that little voice reminding us to "watch their hands" and "render them safe" before checking out their side of the story. May God bless you always.
