Reflections for Patrolman II Nickolaus Edward Schultz
For Officer Nickolaus Shultz:
Our duty as law-officers takes wherever the calls come from. Upon arrival we hardly know what awaits us. Each call, like many before, might appear the same but experienced officers know how fast that can change. We regret that Nickolaus would be the next law-officer to forfeit his life for the sake of others. Incredibly, the accusation of law-officers being too quick to act continues to be consumed by still too large a cross-section of the public. Often, it isn't quick enough.
We are thankful for those officers who came to Nickolaus' aid and we deem them valid heroes dedicated to keeping alive our vow to be there for one another - forever.
We pray for Nicklaus' family, co-workers, friends and those who care about him. May they be ready to reach-out to one another in the days ahead.
We are proud to render Officer Nickolaus Schultz, a soldier-of-the-law, a final salute.

Officer Nickolaus Schultz's, I am heartbroken for your loss. The bio doesn't mention the family dynamic, but , family isn't only genetic. Blue Blood runs through our veins as it did Nick's. He had such a long and bright future to serve on earth, but it wasn't written in the stars. Rest easy Nickolaus and let your brothers and sisters take the reigns from here.
