This morning I come to you weeping over the death of Albuquerque Police Officer Daniel Webster. He died early this morning after being shot by a thug, a thug who should have been in jail. This is a very sad time in New Mexico, the worst violence in our most recent history. We just lost 4-year-old Lilly Garcia, she was shot dead by a thug in a road rage incident. This thug should have been in jail also. Last night Mayor Berry and Police Chief Eden gathered with many at the hospital to show their support for Officer Webster, his family and fellow officers. Then early this morning we learned Officer Webster had died overnight. Who will stand in the gap? From the words of Jesus, our prayers for you are “Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted.”
