The Thin Blue Line Thread

[Hoosier_Vol]

I know there is basically a anti police thread in another section but as someone who spent 17 yrs wearing the badge I wanna have a thread to honor those that gave their life in the line of service. **Please keep this thread respectful. If your anti police, that's your choice but this isn't that thread**

WI- Cameron Police Officer Hunter Scheel and Chetek Police Officer Emily Breidenbach were shot and killed on 4/8/2023 during a traffic stop. The suspect is dead.
Officer Scheel was well-respected officer known for a caring and responsible manner; he was an Army National Guard veteran who had served in Afghanistan. Officer Breidenbach was widely known for her commitment to community, and frequent interaction with children and the department's service K-9 Grizz. She was the daughter of a police chief, and a candidate for trustee this next election cycle. She had recently been engaged to be married.

They were a son, a daughter, a brother, a sister; they were friends. They were real, with real people who loved them.

LA- Officer Abney survived an ambush shooting by a gunman passing in a pedicab, and had lived since with a bullet in his brain, too dangerous to remove. The medical examiner ruled that his death this weekend was the result of complications from his wounds; the prosecutor is weighing upgrading charges from attempted murder to murder.
Officer Abney was a military veteran who had served in Iraq. He was a son, a brother, and a friend.
He was real, with real people who loved him.

Never leave your wounded.

There are some absolutely amazing officers that have the well being of others in mind when performing their duties. God bless the families of these men and women that lost their lives.

This story has stayed on my mind over the years anytime an officer is killed. Very sad.
