Senseless and so hard to understand how people can do something so cold blooded and calculated. I'm not sorry the POS was shot by the off-duty officer. I am SO terribly sorry for the loss of Officer Smith and the pain and suffering that his wife, children, mother, father, siblings, friends and his family in blue will suffer. It never stops hurting me to see this happen... My love and prayers are with the family - most especially his wife and children.

The true measure of a hero is when an Officer lays down their life with the knowledge that those they save... will never know

A police officer should be remembered not by how he died, but how he lived! A great man has gone to secure a safe path for the rest of us to follow. Thank you to you, your family and the Leon County Sheriff's Office. Our country is a little less safe without you. Rest in Peace Brother!

God, filled with mercy, dwelling in the heavens' heights,
bring proper rest beneath the wings of your Lord,
amid the ranks of the holy and the pure,
illuminating like the brilliance of the skies the soul of Christopher Smith who went to his eternal place of rest.
May You who are the source of mercy shelter him beneath Your wings eternally, and bind his soul among the living, that he may rest in peace. And let us say: Amen.
