"Over time, things in my life spun out of control. At a point when I had everything, I found myself planning to throw it all away in just one night. I learned that making it to tomorrow is something I will never take for granted again. Every day, another officer is formulating their plan to throw it all away.
Together, we can foster a culture of understanding and resilience in law enforcement. We must support and protect those who protect us." - Shayne Melton
