In honor of National Police Week, U.S. Attorney General Stephen McAllister honored three Kansas officers who died in the line of duty this year. “We must never forget these brave officers,” McAllister said. “We will strive to be worthy of the sacrifices they made for us and to carry on their dedication to law enforcement.” The names of Sedgwick County Sheriff Deputy Robert Kunze and Wyandotte County Sheriff’s Deputies Theresa King and Patrick Rohrer will be added to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial in Washington D.C. during a ceremony on May 13th. According to the FBI, 55 law enforcement officers died in 2018 from injuries received as a result of a criminal act.
