Sheriff Carpenter was the son of my cousin. I never met him after he became sheriff, but I always wanted to. I am retired after serving 36 years in the Phoenix Police Department. I just wanted to offer my condolences and express my admiration for a man that so nobly gave his life in a brave attempt to save others. God speed Sheriff Carpenter..

On behalf of the Westerville, Ohio Division of Police, our thoughts and prayers are with the immediate family of Sheriff Cody Carpenter and the extended law enforcement family of the Scott County, Arkansas Sheriff's Office. Rest in Peace brother and watch over us.

I fight not for glory or fame, for they are momentary. I fight for those who can't. I fight for Justice. I fight for the oppressed and the down trodden. And if I should lose my life for these just causes, then I have no regrets, For I serve to protect the innocent. It matters not where or when, for evil knows no boundaries. Be it fire, flood, or the threat of tyranny, I will not flee. Justice is my weapon. Faith is my shield. Hope is my armor. Cry not at my passing, for it was my Honor to fight for you. Shed not tears of sorrow, But tears of joy, for now, I stand with God.
