I’m so happy the woman was apprehended. I hope she will be able to shed some light on these senseless murders and maybe help the families understand what happened.
My daughter told me that they had someone at the police department giving grief counseling to everyone there and the officers that were first responders to the incident will be able to take off until they feel mentally able to come back.
This is such a small police department that the people you work with are like family. There were only 4 detectives on the force, so they have lost half of that division. You know, people always say nice things about people after they die, but seriously, Chuck Wilson and John Smith were the two most respected and well-liked officers on the whole police force. The whole community is in shock and trying to come to terms with everything that happened.
