Sergeant Stiner was shot and killed after being abducted by a prisoner he was transporting from court. During the court session, the prisoner somehow was passed a handgun which he hid until his return trip to jail. During the drive he made Sergeant Stiner driver to a remote part portion of desert where he shot and killed him. The suspect later died of exposure after escaping.

Sgt. Stiner,
On today, the 42nd anniversary of your death I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for the citizens of the state of Arizona. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy. There is no tougher job in Law Enforcement than that of a Corrections Officer.

R.I.P.
