Reflections for Police Officer Jennifer Lynn Sebena
I just saw this in YouTube! My heart is CRUSHED for this young woman & her family ! R.I. P. and in HEAVEN Jennifer! I think the husband should have been "EXECUTED IMMEDIATELY!" for this EVIL HORRIBLE ACT that he did to this beautiful soul! Sad this woman never had the chance to live her life!

I just saw this on the show "True Crime". This story devastated me. I deeply admire those who keep us safe, those in blue and their families. I know this happened years ago, but Jen will have a place in my heart going forward. Sending her family love and light, and her brothers and sisters in blue. Stay safe.

Jen, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers on this, the twelfth anniversary of this senseless tragedy. I often think about how much the Wauwatosa community has missed out on a wonderful human serving them on its police force... but you have been serving a higher calling. Keep watching over us.

I only knew you for the time we were in the academy together. I remember you as a very kind and caring person. I hope you have found peace. I hope the people that love you have found some sense of solace and peace. Rest easy Jen Sebena.

Just heard this story. I am appalled that the National Memorial had difficulty deciding whether or not to allow Officer Sebena’s name to be added to this place of honor and distinction (LEO National Wall). Their hesitation is indefensible !
I have 5 members of my agency on the wall- two of which I served with.
Let’s not have this foolishness again.
RIP Officer Sebena and thank you for choosing to serve - I am so sorry your life was taken.

I pray that everyone can find peace in knowing that we will see this officer as well as many others again in Paradise soon. Until then, please accept my condolences.

Rest in peace Officer Sebena. How cruel a manner to be taken from your family by a cowardly and brazen spouse of no values. Your valor won't be forgotten. Sadly, you are among many heroes and heroines of the law enforcement profession killed by a crazed individual.

"Their duty was to serve, our duty is to remember." "It is not how these Officers died that made them heroes, it is how they lived." Remembering Officer Sebena and her honorable life of service and the family left behind.
