Sadly, on Saturday, April 23 Johnson County Sheriff's Deputy Clifton Taylor was killed in the line of duty at a domestic disturbance call near Venus, TX. I did not know Deputy Taylor, but my heart breaks for his family, the other officers that responded alongside him, Sheriff Bob Alford, the Johnson County Sheriff's office personnel and all law enforcement officers in agencies across America.
I've written before that since taking office and working closely with the Joshua Police Department I have developed an immense appreciation for the men and women in blue who selflessly stand guard against the evil in our midst, running towards danger when all human instinct is to run away. Few times in my life can I honestly say I understand empathy, but this is one of them.
Thank you for your service, Clifton Taylor.
A.J.
