On February 18, 2012 Sgt. Michael Todd May of the Monongalia County Sheriff's Department was killed when his cruiser was struck by a drunk driver that Deputy May was attempting to stop during a high speed pursuit that had went through two states starting in Monongalia County, West Virginia and ending in Greene County, Pennsylvania. Sgt. May was an eleven year veteran of the Monongalia Sheriff's Department and is survived by his mother, father, and his brother. The drunk driver who Sgt. May was attempting to stop (Jarad Allen Green) had been arrested five times in Oklahoma for DUI prior to him striking Sgt. Mays cruiser and killing Sgt. May. Sgt. May served his community and gave his life in the line of duty, let us honour his memory along with the rest of our fallen brothers and sisters. End of Watch Brother Thank You For All Your Service.

On August 28, 2012 West Virginia State Trooper Cpl. Marshall Lee Bailey was shot and killed in the line of duty. After taking a drunk driver into custody Bailey and his partner were both shot after the suspect slipped his cuffs and was somehow able to obtain a gun. His partner Trooper Eric Michael Workman is still in critical condition. Deputy John Westfall who responded and exchanged fire with the suspect is in stable condition after surgery.

Former Trooper and acquaintance of mine I knew from working the same area. Killed himself the other day. He was never right after seeing two murdered kids. He left law enforcement and I never knew what happened to him. Not technically line of duty but in my opinion caused by the job. RIP John. Wish I knew you were hurting

Not easily recognized by governments nor insurance companies, but it sounds like complications from PTSD. It doesn't only effect military from combat. Sorry about any LEO, but as he was a friend, I know it is difficult, and more so because you didn't keep up with him.

I have always felt guilty about a former supervisor I knew, who I know felt he hadn't been treated right by the establishment, and probably hadn't. I also didn't keep up with him to have a clue he was hurting enough to eat his pistol. And of course now it is too late to try to help him. He was a good guy who tried to help his subordinates at all times.

RIP Ofc Renn
With voices cracking and anger seething, Mayor Greg Ballard, Public Safety Director Troy Riggs and Police Chief Rick Hite said 21-year veteran patrolman Perry Renn had been shot and killed in an Eastside alley.
"Tonight we are here because we have lost one of our own," Hite said. "Perry Renn was a very fine and courageous officer."
