“I’ve seen the best of humanity and the worst. I’ve seen bravery that never made headlines and corruption that destroyed trust.

I’ve seen young officers risk their lives for strangers, and I’ve watched politics cheapen their sacrifice.

The Gilgo Beach case reminded me that persistence still matters. Even when politics and egos cloud the mission, the truth has a way of breaking through.”
