Reflections for Sergeant William Leo McEntee

I was reading about an 18 year old daughter wanting to be with her Dad when justice is served. The daughter says she wants to be with her Dad as her Dad has always been there for her. What the cold blooded killer has been on death row 17 years of her life. I decided to read the whole story this world is so lost it’s compass. The story of the cold blooded murder seeing justice should not be a story about a fallacy of some death row murderer’s daughters rights. It should be a story of how, even in death, your love for your family still is evident in the belief that you are with them spiritually as so many comments profess your attendance in their lives. RIP and May your loved ones find peace in your memory

I also came across this tragic story while reading about the murderer asking for clemency.
There was clearly no remorse when he committed his crime, and I'm sorry that this brave, kind and compassionate police officer has to have his name linked to this lunatic.
May Gd continue to look after and protect your family and loved ones. I know there is nothing that can take the pain away, no matter how many years go by, but a stranger across the country has your whole family in her prayers.

Heartless, gut wrenching and coward are the words I would describe the killer to be civil and polite but he is way worse. My father died in line of duty when i was about to be 7 and all I’ve heard are stories of him from our mother & family. I’ve always missed my father and will pray for Bill’s widow, kids & family/friends.

This HERO was sitting in his patrol being shot in the head twice and then several other times. Did the offender give his family the chance to hug him when he came home from his shift? NO!! And now they want clemency? HEAVENS NO!!! Sgt Menentee M Entee is a full blown hero. May you rest in peace brother.

I hope justice is served on November 29th. An eye for an eye.

I agree with Andrew's comments. This is a tragic loss of this long serving officer. Clemency has been shown with this person living in jail since 2005 and getting to see his daughter and grandchild, a gift the 20yr serving officer will never get.

Imagine if all of these senseless killings received the attention that George Floyd got. No less tragic and far more common. Rest in Peace Officer McEntee.

Hi, I came across this sad story while hearing about the killer’s daughter wanting to be at the execution.
I’m sorry but this officer didn’t have a chance to have his daughter or loved ones with him when he passed on due to being brutally murdered.
May God always keep this officer and his family in peace

I am Mariya Anderson I am am currently in the Criminal Justice program at GAVC. We had to research a fallen officer and write a reflection on them. McEntee stood out to me because he lost his life completely unexpectedly. He was just talking and bonding with a little boy and Johnson came out of nowhere. He was a very strong and brave officer and I send prayers and closure to the family.

16 years and you are still missed every day. You are never forgotten. But you should be here. I am grateful for the quiet cemetery moments - and the signs when I have needed them the most. Continue to watch over your family. I know how proud you are of all of them. Love you - Jayne

Every time there is a police shooting, like the one yesterday at Hampton and Pernod, I think of my buddy Bill. This is happening WAY too often. The last time I saw Bill he was moonligting at the grocery store in Kirkwood and always was tied up chatting with two or three folks with a big smile and a wave for me. I always remember him as our giant sweeper center back on our talented DuBourg soccer team. One day in practice I decided to out jump him on a head ball. Big mistake. The top of my head crashed into the bottom of his chin as I near knocked myself out Sorry Bill. Please say Hi to team mates Jimmy Mess and goaltender Pat Chassaing who have also prematurely passed. God Bless your wonderful family and friends.
