I cannot believe that someone can just do something like this. My parents are both police officers and I have been to 3 funerals of fellow police officers, and I still to this day do not understand. It is heart wrenching and it really hits home because I live in the fear of losing my mother everyday when she goes to work, and to hear about 4 officers lives being taken is absolutely terrible
