On behalf of the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification & Investigation, our thoughts and prayers are with the immediate family of Officer Omar E. Palmer and the extended law enforcement family of the Department of Homeland Security - Customs and Border Protection.


End of Watch Monday, May 4, 2020.


Rest in Peace brother and watch over us. We will protect and serve from here on in your honor.

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.

The true measure of a person
is not found in the
might of their arm,
their wealth
or their power –
it is found in the strength
of their character.

There is no greater testimony to
ones character, than ones
willingness to sacrifice all,
in the noble quest of
providing protection to all
whom they serve.

To my Brother in Blue. It was a privilege to serve with you for nearly 10 years. I will always remember the great work we did on our outbound team. You were the first one to always back me and my canine partners up when it was needed. I will cherish the memories of you kneeling to greet my canines Grill, Ziva and Shey. It’s time for you to go home, we have it from here on.
