Sacramento County Deputy killed in the line of duty

It is with great sadness and anger that I report the death of a fellow officer in a sister agency, the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department. Deputy Jeffrey Mitchell leaves behind a wife and a six year old son. The type of person who would actually shoot and kill a law enforcement officer is one who has absolutely no redeeming aspect to society.

This should serve as a reality check to all those in the academy class of what is asked of them when they put a badge on their chest, wear a gun, and are sworn to enforce the laws of the land. As I watch my own child play, my heart goes out to the Mitchell family.

Be safe my brothers and sisters.
