On
March 03, 2003, while attempting to stop a vehicle for a traffic violation,
I was shot and injured by a driver who, unbeknownst to me, had minutes earlier
committed a bank robbery. After taking a round through the leg, I returned
fire at the driver as he fled the scene of my shooting.
I turned to TMPA and your legal services for support in the
internal affairs investigation that followed. I received expert assistance from
Lance Wyatt of the Lyon, Gorsky, Baskett, Haring and Gilbert Law Firm. Lance
provided the legal advice necessary, but perhaps more importantly for my situation,
was also there for me as a friend as I recovered from my injuries. Despite what
I know must be a heavy caseload, Lance always made me feel as if I was his only
priority.
Additionally, I was quite surprised to receive a gift of flowers
from TMPA on the very day I was shot. Such timely action by your organization
is proof of your concern for your members and evidence of your awareness of
the events we encounter. I am proud to be a member of TMPA and honored by your
professionalism.
Thank you for being there,
Officer Jeff
