Weary. Worked a case w/ younger suspects & it’s just crushing cuz the crimes are serious & the suspects are already known to us & that’s just awful at their age. A whole lot has gone wrong for a long time for us to all meet in this time & space. Nothing good at all. Anywhere. Sad

SweetDog always makes me feel better. Giving her head rubs and scratches is heaven, hers and mine

Again and again I see how luck plays a role in our lives even though we say our success are from our hard work & our losses are someone else’s fault. So many of our neighbors haven’t had two lucky days in a row in their entire life. Not an excuse. But it is their reality.

And it is my job. And my colleagues job. And all of our jobs. And our obligations. And challenge. To leverage our good luck for those without such luck. That’s where communities of empathetic thoughtful people must form governments of empathetic thoughts thoughtful people.

Serious crime is serious. But we can do so much more to reduce factors of crime. And plus it also is the right thing to do. We are a 911 nation. We don’t have to be.
