Officer Bolin was killed when he was struck by a drunk driver. He was walking towards his cruiser on I-35 when the drunk driver, with a .16 BAC, struck him after driving through a line of flares and around his cruiser. The driver was convicted of intoxicated manslaughter. In 2000, the Texas Parole Board denied the suspect's parole.
Officer Bolin is survived by his parents and fiancée.

I wrote an article titled, "In the line of fire: the making of a texas peace officer." I dedicated to Debby Bolin, Drew's mother. She wrote me a lovely thank you note that I treasure. "Drew, you are gone, but not forgotten!"
