JD, may you rest in peace brother. This saddens me so much. I had so many great times with you. In fact we just shared the story of your nicknames when I visited the old stomping grounds a week before this tragedy. I am so proud to have been able to be partners with you in GST. Rest easy my friend, we will take it from here. Until we meet again.

JD, you are an inspiration to all. There were a lot of somber faces and tears shed at work today. We have the watch brother. I'll watch out for your family and our city, you watch our back. Make our hairs stand up on end to warn us of danger. The sheepdog never quits, memory of you will never fade.

Officer Deguzman was a patrol officer and I was a detective. We were both assigned to SDPD's Mid City Division. I attended second watch patrol line-up one afternoon. I advised the patrol line-up about an officer safety issue and then instructed them to watch their 'P's and Q's out there on the street. JD looks at me confused and asks what P's and Q's are. Of course, I do not know the true meaning of the phrase. I simply tell him it means that he and every officer need to be diligent in watching out for themselves and each other. Later, Investigative Sergeant Steve Cross schools me on the meaning of the phrase. It was coined back in England centuries ago to remind barkeeps to watch their pints and quarts so as not to upset a customer by under pouring a beer. Rest in peace JD. Blessings to your wife, children and family. This beer is for you my brother. The rest of you in blue, watch your P's and Q's.

Hey Brother,

You are one of the nicest, most humblest, coolest guys I know. You are also one of the best officers I know. I am so blessed that I was able to know and spend time with you!

I love you brother. I am praying for your family. You will be missed by me, the department, and the community. If they need anything, they just have to ask.

A Prayer for Police Officer Jonathan DeGuzman:

Lord God, you are always faithful and quick to show mercy. Our Brother-in-Blue, Police Officer Jonathan DeGuzman, of the San Diego, California Police Department was taken from us suddenly and violently in the Line-of-Duty. Come swiftly to his aid, have mercy on him, and comfort his family, friends, and colleagues by the power and protection of the Cross. Heavenly Father, as we mourn the death of our Brother-in-Blue, Police Officer Jonathan DeGuzman, show us the immense power of your goodness and strengthen our belief that he has entered into Your presence. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

"For the policeman does not frighten people who are doing right; but those doing evil will always fear him. So if you don't want to be afraid, keep the laws and you will get along well. The policeman is sent by God to help you. But if you are doing something wrong, of course you should be afraid, for he will have you punished. He is sent by God for that very purpose. Obey the laws, then, for two reasons: first, to keep from being punished, and second, just because you know you should." [Romans 13:3-5 TLB]

“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.” [Matthew 5:9 ESV]

“Greater love has no one than this that someone lay down his life for his friends.” [John 15:13 ESV]

RIP Sir, I feel for your wife, children, and coworkers who have lost a friend, husband and father. Your loss at the hands of street criminal is another example of how each and every law enforcement Officer in this country risks the chance of being killed in the line of duty every day. You will never be forgotten, your family along all your fellow brothers and sisters in arms will carry on your memory and always honor your sacrifice.

To the family of Officer DeGuzman- I did no know your husband. father, friend. But I feel the pain of losing another good Officer. My heart aches every time I see this happening again. I wish the family peace in this time of sorrow and prayers as you try to go on without your partner in life and father for life. He will stand beside you and guide you in the dark days ahead, and someday you will begin to feel a little more peace but not today.

TO THE FAMILY, FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES OF SAN DIEGO POLICE DEPARTMENT, POLICE OFFICER JONATHAN DEGUZMAN.

My heart is filled with great sadness at learning of the lost of your loved one and fellow Police Officer.
We in the law enforcement community are a family, although our uniforms may be a different style and vary in color, a badge, shield or star may be pinned upon our chest.
Our areas of enforcement may vary but our goals are the same, to Serve and Protect our communities. We consist of many different agencies from across the nation, for we are: Municipal Police Officers, Sheriff's Deputies, State Police Investigators, State Highway Patrol Troopers, Conservation Police Officers, College Campus Police Officers, Correctional Officers and Federal Agents just to name a few.
We patrol small towns, large cities, college campuses, county roads, state highways, state prisons, county jails, state parks and the United States Borders.
Whether active duty or retired, we are one family, a Law Enforcement Family, the thin blue line of protectors, brothers and sisters bonded together by HONOR, SERVICE and PRIDE.
Daily we honor our fallen brothers and sisters never forgetting their sacrifice and the sacrifice of their families.
Daily our position is clear that we will Serve and Protect our communities without faltering and with no hesitation.
Daily we show pride in our chosen profession LAW ENFORCEMENT, for we willingly walk the line of good over evil facing the unknown with courage keeping our trust and our faith in GOD.
We know that evil roam these streets and at any moment in the course of performing our duties the ultimate sacrifice might be required of us in the service to our community, for Law Enforcement is not a job but a calling and only a few will make the decision to commit to that calling to serve for some will give all that they have.
ALL LIVES MATTER - LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS SHOULD BE RESPECTED - If we don't respond to that call for help, or investigate that suspicious subject, or stop for that stranded motorist, or rush to that call of shots fired then who will?
OFFICER DEGUZMAN
You did not die in vain.
You sacrificed your life in the service to the citizens in the City of San Diego in the State of California with HONOR, PRIDE and DISTINCTION.
I'm proud to have worn the uniform of a law enforcement officer like you did.
I'm proud to have pinned the badge upon my chest like you did.
I'm proud to have Served and Protected my community as you did.
I'm proud to call you my BROTHER!
I commend you my fallen brother for making the ultimate sacrifice in the performance of your duty.
For you left us doing what you chose to do.
Performing a job you were trained to do.
Upholding the oath you swore to do.
Most importantly doing what you loved to do..........Serving and Protecting your community with Honor and Pride making a better and safer place for us all.
FOR THOSE WHO FIGHT FOR IT, "LIFE HAS A FLAVOR THE PROTECTED WILL NEVER KNOW".
FINAL CALL
Officer DeGuzman status......Officer DeGuzman status....... Officer DeGuzman status.............Attention All Units......... San Diego Police Department, Police Officer Jonathan DeGuzman having served the citizens in the City of San Diego in the State of California with HONOR, PRIDE and DISTINCTION is now 10-42.
Rest in Peace my fallen BROTHER, YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!!!
