Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Trooper Jenks, I'm sorry for what happened to you that night 18 years ago, as the individuals who took your life were nothing short of cowardly, and they were corrupted from the inside out. From what I learned, is that they were so desperate to sell the drugs they had in their car that they were willing to kill for it, which means they were concerned about saving themselves. But despite that, it still doesn't change the fact they murdered a trooper in cold blood with no regrets, and if that doesn't describe how evil they were, I'm not sure what will. What bothers me in cases like these is that the officers in cases like these are young, and with you only being 24, you were a young man who was still advancing further in his career, and it was all taken away by some spineless drug fiends that never gave you a chance to fight back. Although I've only seen a small portion of your dash cam footage that showed moments before your death, it tells me all I need to know about how terrible it was, and considering I've seen countless videos on officers being harmed, that one is probably one of the worst, and it's up there as one of the most haunting. However, they didn't get away with what they did, as a couple hunters found you and called 911, as they sent your family in blue to catch them, thus resulting in you being avenged in death, and had those hunters not came across the scene, it would've gave them more time to get away. But thankfully Karma had other plans, as karma always goes after those who do wrong and harm police, as karma was creeping up on them to begin with, since they knew they'd get caught eventually. Despite that, I'd like to get into the positive side of things; To start off, you were one of the brave men in law enforcement to serve as a trooper, and you were one of the few who were just beginning life and already making it look easy to some who haven't achieved what you did, and the fact you were still a young kid and already faced danger each day says alot, since you were a young warrior at heart. I'm sure that during those almost 3 years of being on the job you were able to make a difference in that short amount of time, and you made sure that the highways were safe to traverse on and get the bad and dangerous people off as well. Although i myself am not a police officer, I understand and know that not all officers make it home each shift, and as unfortunate as it is, it's unfortunately true as you have people like them who are willing to kill just to save themselves, and for what? I'm not sure if that question will ever be solved, but it lingers in the air in cases like these. But rest assured, as slick as they thought they were, they were eventually caught as they've been sealed away from society, as the one who initially took your life got the life sentence as he should have. Though I think it should've been different, atleast we know that he is going to pay for his actions in the afterlife, as Karma will wait for him around the corner. In other words, I'd like to believe that now you're a guardian angel for your family, as you were a young man with the mentality of a warrior, and the skills of a sheepdog, as you weren't only protective of your family, but your people as well as you ensured that the citizens of Tennessee are safe with people like you protecting them, as you protect your family in spirit. I believe that majority of police officers are sent down by God, as they're sent down to serve and protect, and you Mr Jenks, were one of them as you're in God's army of angels. Though it's been some time since your passing, I'm sure that those who knew you will know that although you aren't physically here, you're there for them in spirit, as you're protecting those like your wife, along with your family as your parents raised a soldier who knew the dangers of this world, and went out anyway to make sure that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and you destroyed all evil. As of now, may you rest in peace knowing that your service will forever be cherished, and as long as your name is said and you're remembered, you aren't truly dead as you live on in the minds and hearts of others. But as for your killers on a side note, they will have judgement day brought upon them, as karma will always get those who do wrong, as the penalty for taking away an officer is death. Just know that as long as time goes on and we move forward, you won't ever be forgotten, as your story will be passed on and learned by those who never knew you, and even the memorial site of where you passed will stay there as a sign of your dedication and service, as people will learn about you not for how you passed, but for who you were as a Trooper, and as a man who willingly served with honor, and someone who demonstrated what it meant to protect and serve. Rest Well Mr Jenks.

Sadly watched the tv show A Time To Kill about you, Officer Calvin Jenks. Its heartbreaking to me, a mom, grandmother & great-grandmother, to hear of young people like you you, killed in cold blood for no reason except evil. I pray you are with our Lord Jesus & happy every day. I send heartfelt condolences to your wife & family.

I honor his death in January by wearing a yellow ribbon with his name on it. The state of Tennessee lost a son of law in forcement. I was amazed at the short period of time that lapsed from execution to capture. Awesome officers. It's amazing that camera are most everywhere. My only complaint there is they should be of better quality. My heart breaks till this day for his family. Having lost my only son in military I know the loss. They were both doing what they both believed in. So it helps me to remind myself of that fact. God bless.

Calvin,
I only knew you as a little boy; running and having fun with the other youngsters at the Hall for Thanksgiving gatherings with the Piper clan. You were a wonderful child and a true pride and joy of your parents life. Shy but full of life. The news was shocking and truly unbelievable, but today, I know your mama smiles when she thinks of you and the pride that continues to fill her heart. Thanks for your years of service. You are now with Grandma & Grandpa Piper. I bet it is the best homecoming you ever had. You have some cousins, Aunts and Uncles up there with you too. Thanks for protecting our lives while on earth, but more thanks for sending the shining light down for us to find our way at our darkest moments. Love ya buddy! RIH Cal.

Calvin, there is no greater love than when a man lays down his life for another. I think of you often as I hear of needless slayings in our country by illegal and legal individuals from other countries involved in serious crimes as this. I too am a Columbia, TN native and wanted to say thank you from my heart for bravely serving the citizens of Tennessee. This life is short and you left way to early. Hope to see you one day in Heaven for I know that is exactly where you are. A place of no pain, no tears, and no greater love from a loving and caring God. God Bless you.

Calvin, you will always be in our thoughts and prayers.
We miss you and know your are in heaven looking down
On all of us. It seems like yesterday when you were taken
From this earth way to early. We will rejoice together one
Day. Until then, RIP my son.


God Bless, YLF 01-06-15
