Yesterday I lost my partner and my best friend. Justice has saved my ass more times than I can count and I am forever thankful. His loyalty and dedication to me and the job are beyond words. I’m really struggling right now but I know he’s still watching over me. RIP buddy, I love
I admit, recently, I was ready to let the hate win and give up being a cop. That is no longer the case! I won’t quit on my blue family or the community! I will fight with everything I have to regain the respect this profession deserves!

So I’m on duty pumping gas and a mom walks out of the gas station with 2 cute little girls. They were so excited abt the police car and wanted to come talk to me. Mom yells at them “Don’t talk to him unless you wanna get killed or go to jail!” Heartbreaking 😥
Over here brushing the dirt off from all these haters. I refuse to let this anti police agenda win! I will continue to lead by example and represent the fine men and women of this great profession! 🇺🇸👮♂️💙

I wanted to take a second to thank all you that have reached out to show support. This has undoubtedly been one of the worst times in my life but the support y’all have shown is helping tremendously. THANK YOU

Please say a prayer for one of the best dogs I’ve ever met. K9 Chedo and Sgt Hazelwood have saved more officers than I can count and we are torn apart by his loss. K9 Chedo became ill yesterday on shift and had to be put down today. Rest easy pup, we’ve got the watch from here
So far this shift I’ve had 4 people of various races approach me to say thanks and stay strong. It’s a nice change of pace from Fu*k 12 and finger guns.

To all my followers in the media, why don’t you guys show stuff like this??? If you spend 1 min of your time looking, you can find tons of good videos like this.

Wow! I had no idea that saying I’m praying for officers in Louisville would offend so many ppl. Regardless of how you think the case turned out, these officers that will deal w/ the aftermath did nothing to anyone. Guess I’m playing the how many followers can I lose game again 🤷♂️
For every follower (supporter) I lost for posting the truth abt Breonna Taylor, I gained at least 5 more great supporters. Thank y’all so much for your support. I will continue to speak truth, good or bad abt police! Thank you guys! Y’all are great!
So defund the police they say... This is the type of stuff YOUR officers around the world are doing daily. These actions just never get publicly seen because they don’t fit into the narrative that police are all racist assholes....
Farewell to our kick ass crew! Had a blast with you guys. Thanks for all you do to show transparency and the great work our officers do. We will miss you! 😢

I’ve lost more friends and family than I can count because this fabricated war on police. So if u come on page thinking I care abt offending a stranger, u better check yourself at the door. Shits abt to get real...🤷♂️😤💯🇺🇸
Much respect to this young man. He made a mistake and realized his mistake would likely have consequences. He owned those consequences and did not make it personal.

I’m often asked why I don’t quit policing in today’s society. It’s simple! I was raised by a single mother with all the odds stacked against her and I watched her FIGHT tirelessly for me and our family! QUIT is not in my vocabulary!! FIGHT is all I know!

So I finally decided to enter into the Sgt promotion process. For years I wasn’t sure if I wanted to but the time is now to lead my guys from the front. I want to be the example they follow and I will fight like hell to defend them from this societal mess we are in!

So last Wednesday, while at work, I helped rescue this guy from a fence in a vacant back yard. He only had a couple of inches to run. After spending 4 days in animal control I was able to adopt him. Meet Rizzo!

I see all these polls asking who to blame for the mass shootings. Is it the gun? Is it President Trump, etc.... How about you f*%^ing blame the shitheads who decided to take innocent lives?!?! Pretty simple guys...

When your local police department is hiring apply and be the change you want to see. Don’t sit on the sidelines and be fed a bunch of BS by corrupt politicians and media!
Just left a run at a hotel and it felt like I was in the

studios. Everyone there was a huge fan of the show. It was nice meeting and chatting with everyone. It’s great to come together like that regardless of race, gender or any of the other dividers being pressed on us🇺🇸
Good morning everyone! Up early to work a super long day 🥱 but grateful to still be doing what I love. Times are tough but I still love being a cop! Blue family, let’s keep our heads on swivels and get home to our loved ones!

I’m seeing a lot of anti police ppl following me after I called out that female officer. They are all being blocked. I will not be a voice for their agenda and I will defend cops more times than not. 99% of us do the right thing at the right time and for the right reason. PERIOD
I’d like to say thank you to everyone who has reached out to show support while our department grieves. This large amount of support and respect to K9 Chedo was not expected but is certainly appreciated. Please keep my buddy, Sgt Hazelwood in your thoughts and prayers as he

I just got home after a long day at work and I’m reading thru all the comments from my posts today. Apparently twitter has a limit to how many times I can like things so I want to let all of u know I am beyond grateful for ur support and u guys are all family!

Woke up this morning and had to make sure my gun didn’t jump off the nightstand and shoot someone. He was a good boy and stayed put just like all guns do… 🤯🤯🤯
So I go into a
@Speedway
gas station today to use the restroom after I got off shift while still in uniform. The cashier tells me it’s $40 and that I’m scaring the customers so I blow him off then walk by. On the way out he tells me he’s calling the mayor on me...🙄
#KeepItClassy
The politicians and media’s war on police is working. I’ve had more resisters in the last few months than an ofc should have in years. Many of them with guns. It’s truly scary out here. I pray these close calls don’t result in a life lost, mine included. 😔🙏
Yesterday my shift had an officer involved shooting. We are all ok physically but please keep our officers in your prayers. Days like yesterday make me proud to work alongside the great officers at LPD. Great response by all!

Here does the start of a 14 hour work day. I know it’s a tough ask but Lord please guide people to be civilized during one of the most crucial elections in history. Lord please keep my brothers and sisters safe 🙏
Let’s open use of force training to the public!!! I refuse to believe this many Americans are dumb. I believe putting citizens in the shoes of an officer can truly open eyes. It’s a lot different when it your life on the line! Let’s make it happen!
If you wanna wish death on me cause I’m not vaxxed go right ahead. I get that every day so I’ll be fine. Just know your opinions mean nothing to me and won’t change my mind. The more negativity that gets throw my way, the harder I fight! 💪
Man! My shift got our asses kicked tonight! A murder, narcotics arrests, a pursuit, 4 resisters, burglary, several domestics and a few bad crashes. 2nd shift got er done tho! 🥱😴👏

So I found out I passed all phases of the Sergeant promotion process and have been placed on an eligibility list for future openings. We should have some openings fairly soon so we will see how it goes! Thank u all for your support!
“We want justice!”..... “Yo, let me get this big screen tv!” These people are not seeking anything other than the opportunity to become thieves in masses. It’s a damn shame! SMH
All these NBA teams boycotting based on emotion instead of fact. Guess I shouldn’t be surprised. Good thing I wasn’t watching ur bum asses anyway...🤷♂️
Being a cop is like a mental train wreck. This profession eats away at people like many of you could never imagine. Yet 99.9% of us stay true to our oath and values. Those are the ones that need recognized! Stop nitpicking the .1%!
For all the Monday morning quarterbacks out there.... This is how fast shit can go south. I don’t wanna hear your bullshit “expert opinions” if you have never walked a day in our shoes.
#BackTheBlue
Reposting this for the "just let him go crowd" and the "it wasn't a dangerous situation" crowd.
Sheep, the lot of you.
You couldn't pay me enough money to do what Police do.
For those of us that were around for 9/11/01 remember the tragedy and honor those lost, but also remember the sense of unity shared by the whole country, regardless of race or sex. I wish we could get back to that unity and love for each other and country!
#NeverForget
#Unite
So protests and gatherings to paint Black Lives Matter on streets is safe but it’s not safe to turn on 2 lights? I must have forgot unity is not allowed til after the election... 🤔😤🇺🇸
I may be an asshole at times but at least I’m an asshole with pride, honor, courage and integrity, which is more thann half the country can say. That side only comes out when provoked so please don’t push me...😤
Active shooter situations are probably the most chaotic situation an officer will experience. That’s why we train long and hard with these scenarios. These officers did outstanding! Straight to threat and eliminate threat! 👏👏
I’m sick of posting prayers for dead officers! I’m sick of wearing the mourning band on my badge! It’s time the courts do their jobs and keep these violent criminals in prison! It’s inexcusable these violent criminals are freed to kill cops and citizens!
#BloodOnYourHands
My guys and I stopped a car full of youngens yesterday, as they were displaying some very suspicious behaviors. After searching the car, only a little bit of weed was located. We cut them a break and started shooting the shit with them. Next thing I know we are doing a group
I’m disgusted by the actions of the officers involved in the death of
