Incidentaly, becuae UHP pays its officers so poorly, like most Troopers do, Scott was working part time as a Sheriff while he was employed full time with UHP. I hope that explains the earlier issue about the math. It makes you wonder though, if he had not been forced two work two highly stressful jobs at the same time, might he still be with us today?
Read the article. It said he had worked for UHP for twenty years. He also worked for the county part time until he went full-time last year. Obviously he was working part time while working for UHP.
There are two sad points here:
1. Law enforcement officers are so under paid for such a risky job that they have to work two jobs.
2. You two need something to do, if you have to be so nit picky about an article, when a man has died.
He CHOSE to work that poorly paying job.
Our sympathies go to his family, friends, and co-workers. It hurts to lose one of the good men!
I would never wish something like this upon anyone. Good for her for calling 911 and trying to revive him.
From all that I have heard he is a standup man, officer of the law, and member of the Church. God be with his family.
To Kathleen,
There are many who share your sorrow. Scott's influence was almost as big as his heart. Please leave a post with the time and location of the funeral services when they are finalized.
