Reflections for Corporal Barbara Ann Dukes Ester
On behalf of Evening Watch at Metropolitan Detention Center Los Angeles, California we also grieve at your loss. Correctional Staff perform in selfless duty with no tools to defend themselves with besides verbal persuassion. It is such a shame that this occurred.
We honor Barbara's life even though we never met her. All females in this business represent her and her attention to detail in discovering contraband. We sincerely hope and pray someone with guts risks their careers and stands up to gutless Congress and make some damn changes, giving us the tools we need and deserve.
Lord provide us peace and safety, have mercy on each one of us and our families. Amen!

RIP Sergeant Ester.
This is a prime example why the death penalty should be given whenever a law enforcement officer's life is taken and it should be mandatory life WITHOUT parole when an officer is injured.
Also, RIP Deputy Sheriff William Coleman EOW 1/8/12.
