Your murderers may have escaped proper justice at that time, but they surely faced a higher justice in a different place at a later time. Thank you for your service and please know that no passage of time can ever erase your sacrifice. Rest in peace always.

Your heroism and service is honored today, the 136th anniversary year of your death. Your memory lives and you continue to inspire. Thank you for your service. My cherished son Larry Lasater was a fellow police officer who was murdered in the the line of duty on April 24, 2005 while serving as a Pittsburg, CA police officer.

Time never diminishes respect. Your memory will always be honored and revered. What an absolute travesty of justice occurred in this prosecution of the persons responsible for the death of four state police officers. Thankfully, God is the final arbitrer of justice.

Rest In Peace.

This is a true tragedy and your actions will never be forgotten. May your assailants and the jury that acquitted them find true misery and pain for an eternity.
