Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Investigator Sapinoso, I am glad to see you are finally honored at this site after so many months. I'm sorry things turned out the way they did...in a perfect world we would never have to see officers killed in the line of duty. If I could give my own life to keep another officer from being killed in the line of duty I would. But things don't work that way. I don't know why they work the way they do...but they do.

God Bless you, Investigator Sapinoso...my prayers are with your family and friends.

God Bless you and your family. Although no justification, at least we can hope for justice.

Police Officers are part of a brotherhood that others will never know! Take care Inv. Sapinoso, we've got the watch from here!

This is an absolutely tragic and horrific loss for the family. Two senseless deaths in one family. May God protect you and give you peace during this time. Rest In Peace Inspector Sapinoso.

Day is done,
gone the sun.
From the hills,
from the lake,
From the skies.
All is well,
safely rest,
God is nigh.

Godspeed to you and your family

There are but two persons who protect the sinful human race from destroying itself. One is God's Holy Spirit. The other is the Peace Officer. Without them, we would all perish at each other's hands.
You were called into this profession and our Lord and Savior has blessed you because:
According to Romans 13.1-5...
God ordains the Peace Officer’s profession.
The Peace Officer is sent by God.
The Peace Officer is vested with God's authority to enforce the law.
A Peace Officer's badge is to be honored by us, because it is honored by God.

You gave the ultimate sacrifice, your life for your fellow man, while serving, defending, and protecting others in your community.

To the family of Investigator Joe Sapinoso and the Greenville County Sheriff's Office, your extended family of Law Enforcement Officers grieves with you during this time. I pray that God will wrap his loving arms around each of you and comfort you during this most difficult time.

To all my brothers and sisters, please remember the fallen officers we have lost. Remember the men and women who died trying to make this world a safer and better place for us all to live in. Please pray for this officer's family and friends as they struggle with this tragedy.
May God be with you every day, please remember, we are a part of the largest family in the world and when one hurts we all hurt.

Though our badges and uniforms may be different, our mission is the same. Rest in peace with our other fallen Brothers and Sisters. We will continue the fight in your honor.

Your murderer a coward, may God be the final judge. God bless you brother. Go in peace and know that we weep along with your family. You will not be forgotten as no hero is.
