My prayers are with his Wife, Children, and Family this sad morning. As I heard the sirens from my home I prayed, as my husband woke me up to see the news, I prayed again, as I passed The Sheriff's Office and saw the flag at half staff I cried. God Please watch over his Family during this time of sorrow. God Bless.

Every time I am told that another police officer has had his life taken in the line of duty a part of me goes with them. I have experienced the loss in my small department and it still affects us on a daily basis. South Carolina is a great state and the men and women standing between the worst of society and the rest of society place themselves in peril each and every day. We need to thank them and praise them every day for keeping us as safe as the law will allow. May his family be blessed and find comfort.

The Thin Blue Line gets a little thiner everyday an Officer is taken down, but our resolve to fight even harder grows stronger to fight the evil that surrounds us to make our communities safe.
