I know I have posted this before…a long time ago. But tonight I need to post it again. I want other families that have lost hope in law enforcement to know there really are still Guardian Angels on Earth, and some of them do wear badges.
The following was written by a Detective that really does care – this is the type of warrior and hero I wish Morgan had watching over her before it was too late. And if this Detective is reading this tonight I would like him to know his words were taken to heart, and I will never give up – I will ALWAYS fight the good fight. The cowards involved in Morgan’s murder are very sad weak excuses for human beings. They are bullies, and have never learned right from wrong, they do not value life and I will not rest until Morgan has received justice.
I continue to read your blog and more and more I become angry at the way this was handled. It sickens me. It was (and is) neither professional nor moral. I dearly wish that I could have been the Detective assigned to your case. I have a very powerful work ethic and I absolutely abhor blatant disregard of victim’s rights. Your plight has done nothing but solidify that strongly held belief. I once raised my right hand and swore to defend this great country from all enemies, both foreign and domestic – with my life if need be. I again raised my right hand and swore before God to uphold the Constitution and laws in the performance of my Law Enforcement duties and to protect the innocent. I became the Sheepdog. I became the silent protector in the night. A shield of hope. I became the one thing that violent criminals fear: The one person who can and will visit the same terror and violence unto them that they cause their victims. Everyday prior to beginning work, I tell myself that the Wolves will not prevail. I will be that wall that stands between them and the innocent. In order to continue their terror, in order to continue their violence, they will have to go through me first, for that is my sworn oath.
Please take heart in one simple fact: There are many, many professionals in Law Enforcement that feel the same way I do. It is not an easy job, but none of us pursued this profession because it was easy (or to get rich), We do this because we are inherently good people and wish to do nothing more than protect those innocents that need it. Do not lose Hope nor Heart, for the truth is a blinding light that has a way of seeping out of the deepest, darkest night. Justice will prevail, of that I am certain. Keep hold of your convictions and fight the good fight. Your struggles have had an immediate impact on the citizens that I am in charge of keeping safe. I will continue to work feverishly to protect them and swear that what has happened in your situation – will NEVER happen on my watch. There are Guardian Angels on Earth, and some of us wear badges.
Peace to you and your family.
