I know Mr Mowry personally and he is a great man. We worked together for years. He is a father, husband, and a great loving person. He will have to live with this forever.

Luckily for him it sounds like the mendo officers fired the fatal rounds still traumatic but not quite as much,

Sad day for sure, I’m I bit surprised at only 7 involved shooters, he did put a couple rounds in a squad car, they’ve done a lot more for way less… Don’t park in the managers spot
