I met Paul in 1996 in Oakland, and found him to be a good man and a good cop. He left for South Lake Tahoe PD and was shot in a foiled bank robbery. Rather than retire, he fought his way back to permanent duty. He went to Texas to get away from big city police work. We lost a good man.

I just read about the losses of the two officers. I just came back from National Police Week in Washington, D.C. My brother was shot and killed on March 22, 2006 in Albuquerque, NM. I couldn't help wonder, while I was looking into the other officers' faces, as to whom would be next. It deeply saddened me just having that thought. I am praying for the officers and their families.
