MESA, AZ â A Mesa police officer that was critically injured while on duty last year is focusing on helping others.
Stoddard said his brain erased everything from the accident. My brain is deleted, so I use the term Sean 1.0 and Sean 2.0, he said. In the beginning, I wasn t able to walk. I wasn t able to talk. I wasn t able to feed myself.
It s the traumatic brain injury that left the most significant impact. It s something that s with you forever, he said.
