Reflections for Sergeant Joshua Lee Clouse
On behalf of the Ohio Attorneys General Bureau of Criminal Identification & Investigation, our thoughts and prayers are with the immediate family of Sergeant Joshua I. Clouse and the extended law enforcement family of the Cameron Police Department, Texas.
End of Watch Thursday, May 11, 2023.
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.

Lord Jesus, as we watch America’s Peace Officers succumb to the wicked and evil in this world, it becomes difficult for us to pick up and move forward. Our communities are on the brink of exploding with tension. In light of the peace officers who are no longer with us, I pray for endurance for our communities and law enforcement agencies. Carry us through this time of strife, that through our struggles, our bonds may grow even more unbreakable. In Your mighty and holy name, I pray. Amen.
“And I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send, and who will go for us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.” [Isaiah 6:8 ESV]

May God bless Officer Clouse and his Family that was left behind. He is Resting in the Arms of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for Eternity. May his wife and children know that their Husband and Father was a Hero to them and his community. It is harder and harder to write these as so many young men and women are dying needlessly. I pray hard for the victims families everyday for God’s protection. RIP Officer Clouse.

I'm very saddened to hear of the tragic incident, resulting in your loss. I'm praying for your wife and two children, your friends, loved ones, and your colleagues, who will take over your watch. Rest in peace.
Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.
