Six Missouri law-enforcement officers and two corrections officers who died in the line of duty in between in 2020 were honored on Saturday, May 1, during Missouri’s annual Law Enforcement Memorial Service for those who have paid the ultimate price for their service protecting their fellow Missourians.
Officers, their families and friends from across the state gathered as the service returned to the Missouri Law Enforcement Memorial on the grounds to the state Capitol, after being held virtually last year due to the coronavirus pandemic.
In addition to the officers who died in 2020, the names of seven law-enforcement officers whose historical line-of-duty deaths recently confirmed also were added to the memorial’s “Wall of Honor.”

About 20 people spoke about the job in-person and virtually during Wednesday night’s regular School Board meeting, attempting to sway the nine elected officials to their side.
Most argued that the post does more harm than good, particularly to students of color who might not feel comfortable with an armed officer patrolling their schools.
Daniel Chaffee, who said he has children of color, told the board that his kids have discussed being afraid of police.
