Trooper Joseph Longobardo, 32, was shot in a leg.
Our Father in Heaven we pray for the family of this slain officer. Let Your hand of grace provide them with comfort in their horrible loss. In Jesus' Name we pray, Amen.
May you rest in peace my brother.........
How sad. :((
Our love and prayers go out to this fine young man and his family.
I worked with Joe when he was a Trooper in Troop K. Joe was a dedicated, caring, compassionate and squared away indvidual. Joe was a Marine and an Air National Guard Reservist who served in Afghanistan. This is the fourth Trooper this year we have buried. For those of you who dont know, there have been people up in that area helping this human piece of filth known as "Bucky" evade capture and have even made t-shirts and served "Bucky Burgers" at local resturants. I hope of those people, have a great night of sleep tonight, because there are many of us who knew Joe and are praying for Don Baker who wont. Terri and Little Louis, Your Husband and Daddy died a Hero and we will never forget him or you....RIP Joe.
Prayers for his family.
Prayers for Tpr. Longobardo, his family and all the State Police involved in hunting down this lowlife. I have worked with NYS Troopers and met a few on the Northway, a better group of Law Enforcement Officers would be hard to find, anywhere. Your professionalism is legendary.
