In Memory of the Fallen

It totally rankles me that in our society we publish the heck out of the agents of evil and the victims quickly fade from view, remembered only by the friends and family they left behind.  I can't name one of the victims of  jeffrey dahmer, ted bundy or david berkowitz (son of sam), just to name a few.  The only one I could come up with was Sharon Tate in the manson murders.

So in an effort to keep the memory of the victims of that ex-LAPD psychopath, justly fired, alive over his memory, as much as this blog can, here are their names.




Police Officer Michael Crain
Riverside Police Department, California

Detective Jeremiah MacKay

Monica Quan and Keith Lawrence

They passed together as they were going to go through life on February 3, 2013.

Our prayers are with their family, friends and co-workers.

*uncapitalized names done purposefully because to capitalize them would show a sign of respect they certainly do not deserve.


“When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants and murderers, and for a time, they can seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall. Think of it--always.”
― Mahatma Gandhi


Psalm 37:9
For those who are evil will be destroyed, but those who hope in the Lord will inherit the land.
