This guy commits an armed robbery, and a female cop is murdered during the arrest. She was a single mom. Years later the guy is “rehabilitated” in prison. Starts an organization to help homeless vets. Praised as a hero. Local paper does a full spread on him. NEXT PAGE.
Meanwhile the son of the dead police Officer never recovers from losing his mom. He gets involved in drugs and ends up murdering someone. This is why I get so damned angry when a cop is murdered. People don’t really give a damn do they? Here’s the piece written NEXT PAGE
Here’s Police Officer Gail Cobb’s memorial. https://www.odmp.org/officer/reflections/3199-officer-gail-a-cobb She was 24 years old and the first female Police Officer also the first African American female officer killed. Unlike the murderer, she never got a book, write ups in the paper, her heroism quickly forgotten.
She is remembered by those that were serving with her that day. Also by a young teen who came in contact with her who Gail helped changed her life. How many more could she have touched and changed their lives? No doubt her son’s life would have been better. That’s what happens
when a cop is murdered. We lose so much more.
