On Tuesday the twenty first day of July we said goodbye to a 10 year veteran of the JCPD, who succumbed to his devastating injuries suffered at an incident that occured on July 16,2009. Our fallen Hero paid the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty. He was dedicated officer who was proud to wear the uniform.
On Monday the twenty third day of March we said goodbye to a good friend. For those of you who had the opportunity of becoming a friend of Omar Laureano will never forget his great smile or sense of humor. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family.
