In Kansas City, Kansas we had 4 officers murdered in three separate events in the span of just two years. Two from the police department and two from the Wyandotte County Sheriffs Office. Captain Stephen Smith, a returning guest and friend of the show, had a connection to all four and was on scene when the two deputies were killed. We're going to hear him recount that day and then we'll hear from Steve's adult daughter, Taylor Hubbard, to get her perspective on what a cop's kid experiences during those frightening times when the community knows an officer is down, but the family doesn't yet know who has been hurt.
Kansas City, KS and Wyandotte County's recent fallen:
- Detective Brad Lancaster, EOW 9 May, 2016
- Captain Robert Melton, EOW 19 July, 2016
- Deputy Patrick Rohrer, EOW 15 June, 2018
- Deputy Theresa King, EOW 16 June, 2018
