A cobra strikes fast just as evil and violence and so one does not get many chances to correct things the first time out.

Your honor, dignity and integrity, Officer Cook, were surely put to the test. Lo and behold you heroically answered what turned out to be your last call of humility and character on mankind's behalf. Safety and security for a community reaching out for some resolve and respite. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.

Real simple. No. Police work takes a lot of training, practice and the precision by which one must carryout their affairs despite inherent stress, duress and danger. Peril is that train that nears its arrival point searching to unseat the harmony we all come to expect. Dade County demanded action and your humility and honor, Officer Cook, brought the quickest response to a very ugly domestic scene in which you gave your life to shelter, preserve and save the citizens and your colleagues held under fire by Mr. Pearsall. A great man and wonderful human being gone before his time. So much character and class, so much desire and motivation. Dedication and determination ,fiercely loyal and so honored for combining integrity, fortitude and wisdom to all facets of life. Rest in peace my neighbor, friend and hero.
