SALINAS — One by one, family and fellow law enforcement colleagues stood and spoke at a public memorial Thursday for Salinas police officerJr., who was shot and killed last month in the line of duty. They spoke of his sense of service, his love of family and the ideals that drove the 30-year-old man.
“I’ve been to several of these — one in Seattle, one in South Carolina and now this one,” he said. “And honestly, it can become emotionally exhausting with the grief.” “He was a man of service and he died being in service,” Jorge Ernesto Alvarado said. “On Feb. 25, he never retreated from his final battle.”
Alvarado’s boss, Salinas Police Chief Roberto Filice, reflected on the difficult moment for both Salinas police and the broader community.
