The dog days of summer have arrived, Officer Cook, but then again sadly crime and its waves of monsterous trouble have heated up. In Philadelphia, two officers were shot but should survive, outside Chicago in Highland Park six people were killed by a madman and in Akron, Ohio a young man was killed by police shot around sixty times. I don't know what make of this other that insanity and evil continue eroding society's cornerstones chipping away at its sound foundations. Dade County had its share of messes you and your esteemed, heroic and loyal comrades had to clean up dealing with domestic and any issues that were squarely placed on your plates of perseverance, proficiency and where dignity, character, trust,truth and integrity all belonged. You won't be forgotten my neighbor, friend and hero. What your lost that day cannot be returned to you, your family and to Karen.
