Buchanan is a small county in southwest Virginia, in what was formerly mining country.
The total county population there is less than 25,000 and the Sheriff's office only has 47 members (sworn and civilian).
This is a devastating loss.Last edited by GoDirectly2Jail; 03-14-11 at 11:24 AM.

It does not bode well for a society when so many LEO's are being killed, and assaulted. Not to mention all the other crap these less than human types have set about doing in the world, not just the US. Wish there was an easy answer -there isn't------so I'll just say Bless you and thank you to all that put yourselves out there to protect the rest of us. My heart goes out to all these LEO's families.

Thanks, the article I pulled it from wasn't too clear, but I've since received the flag half staff order from the Governor's office that listed them. I have since edited my original post. Originally Posted by greg72982
