Description
With so much hype about the police and law enforcement officers being bad people. I wanted to post this photo that I was commissioned to take in spring of 2016. Officer John R. Kotfila Jr. He was a sheriffs officer that gave his life to save a family from a head on car crash. He put his patrol car in harms way to keep a wrong way driver from hitting a family of innocent motorists. Seconds to make a decision that coast him his life for the lives of others. Seconds to decide whether to shoot or don't shoot that comes up so many time. It is all apart of wearing a badge and doing a tough job. It is all apart of make tough decisions!!! (I will donate all moneys made from the sales of this photo to law enforcement charities)
