SharonfromSXM said: Glad you posted this Barbara because I just went to do it. I hope anyone who can give even a small amount will do so. This officer was loved by everyone even the bad boys because he treated everyone with respect. He worked hard everyday to protect tourists & residents from crime. I did get some details of how this happened & the officer was quickly responding to the report of a robbery but what he did not know was the robbery was still happening & he walked right into it. He has a small child & death benefits amount to almost nothing here so anything will help.
Officer Benjamin is the first police officer killed here in the line of duty & I pray he is the last.... Yes, Sharon, he walked right into it. My granddaughter witnessed the entire thing. and every little bit will help for sure. Office Benjamin was so well liked and respected and he lost his life trying to keep us all safe
