Reflections for Detective Terry Wayne McNett

Though years have passed, your loss still haunts all of us. Thank you and your family for your sacrafice.

Officer. Wichita PD, Sedgwick County KS

I met Terry McNett when I was in the Sedgwick County Sherrif Cadets from 1975 to 1980. Terry was the most kind and caring person you could ever meet. Whenever I had the chance to pair up with Terry for patrol, I would gladly be at his side. I was living in Minnesota, when I heard of Terry's death from my brother. It was a very sad day for me, knowing that such a good person was gone. Terry will be missed by many, but rest assured, Terry is patroling the streets of heaven.

While I was with ATF in Wichita, I was on the task force with Terry. I moved to another agency and lost touch with Terry. Years later, I attended a training session that was discussing officer safety. During the class a series of photos showed officers killed in the line of duty. When Terry's photo was shown, it was like a knife in the heart. I remember Terry as one of the nicest, easiest going people I've worked with in law enforcement. I can still remember his laugh and smile. Now, I'm in a training assignment at the FLETC. I will be using this loss as a very personal example of why every officer and agent must be careful, whether on warrants or interviews. Thanks Terry. God speed.
