Most Recent Reflection
View all 175 ReflectionsMy husband and I loved watching Ozark Law and had come to love all of the reoccurring officers especially Officer Carson. Loved her pink handcuffs, pink pens, pink clipboard and loved the way she interacted with kindness and empathy to everyone she pulled over. The last episode was very heart wrenching to watch. I literally burst into tears and I didn't even know her.
Sending thoughts and many prayers from Independence, Missouri, to Corporal Riner, Carson's fellow officers, her husband and her children.
