Powerful Tribute to Fallen Hopkinsville Police Officer [Video]
This is powerful and important. In the wake of last week's tragic shooting death of a Hopkinsville, Kentucky police officer, Muhlenberg County Sheriff Curtis McGehee wrote a poem called "Officer Down." Courtney Peveler, a young singer/songwriter from Central City, took those words and put them to music. Take a listen.
Officer Phillip Meacham was murdered last Thursday evening. He leaves behind a wife, two young children and a respected legacy of law enforcement.
