I thank you for your committment and sacrifice. Police Officer Louis Lave Los Angeles County Police Department 2007-03-13
Officer Pritchett -
When I was an officer working Hollywood, I did research into our officers lost in the line-of-duty. Sgt. Dennis Feeley had actually pulled your case file off of a pallet, in the archives, in a box marked, "to be burned." It had been over 55 years, since your death. Today, a similar case might take up to four 4" thick three-ring binders. Your entire case, including the death of Adam Weil, your killer, took just six pages of onion-skin paper.
I went to the building at Hollywood and Vine where it had happened. I stood on the exact floor. As I left I ran into an older man who ended up telling me about moving into the building about a month after your death. He described the building as "The Hollywood Address to have" when doing business during the 1930's. He told me of the health club there, and the uniformed (and usually very pretty), young women who ran the elavators. You became more than a face on the wall to me, once I learned the details of your death. I shared them with the others.
We thank you for your service. We still answer the calls. We have to, or why else would we be here?
May God grant you eternal rest. Sgt. K. Moreland LAPD 2005-12-13
