1 Mistake Can Destroy 2 Lives Forever

  • Sunday, September 26, 2021

First let me say I agree 100 percent with the verdict. But at the same time I cant help think about how one tragic mistake can destroy two lives forever.

Officer Galinger was doing his job and gave his life for our city. I don't know Ms. Hinds and have no connection to anyone involved in the case, but she appears to be a law-abiding citizen for her entire life who has never been in trouble. It only takes one mistake to change everything.

I saw Ms.
Hinds' daughter in law hug Officer Galinger's father after the verdict. I am a Deist but I hope both families find comfort in their faith.
