Minneapolis police officers have gotten no support in the aftermath of the 2020 protests, and many are struggling with PTSD.
I sit here in mourning.
I had a friend over for dinner recently and she told me that two Washington, D.C., police officers have committed suicide since the civil unrest at the Capitol on Jan. 6. I know so many people will jump to blame former President Donald Trump, but I don’t. I know better.
You see, I was a lieutenant with the Minneapolis Police Department, assigned to the Third Precinct. I had been a police officer in Minnesota for 37 years. I use the words “was” and “had been” because effective this month, I am retired.
