The widow of a Florida police officer killed while escorting President Barack Obama's motorcade has sued the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office, saying it was negligent in her husband's death.
Jupiter Police Officer Bruce St. Laurent died Sept. 9, 2012, after being struck by a pickup truck while he prepared to shut down a stretch of Interstate 95 ahead of the motorcade as Obama campaigned in Florida.

Was it her lunch break, her dinner break, her coffee break or maybe even hrt smoke break?
(That my friends is how a liberal would setup his offense)
I don’t get it...they should have shut down the highway BEFORE he started the preparations to shut down the highway?
