Most Recent Reflection
View all 65 ReflectionsNovember 23rd is a particularly dark day on the calendar of North Carolina Law Enforcement, for it reminds us of the loss of you, Edmond Cannon in Charlotte and Porter Robinson in Greensboro. Though the years of your sacrifices are different, your devotion to duty and fidelity to the canons of our profession are the same. I hope you somehow know that we know how your life mattered and that you are still remembered.
