Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Extending our thoughts and prayers to the immediate family of Police Officer Demetrice Johnson and the extended law enforcement family of the Memphis Police Department, Tennessee.



End of Watch Friday, August 2, 2024.



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.

My heart is so saddened whenever I hear of a young officers life ended so tragedically. I was an FTO for many years and developed long term relationships with my rookies. This country needs good, dedicated young officers and it appears we lost one again. God bless the family, friends and co-workers. RIP Officer Johnson
