(From Romans 13:4) - "For he is the minister of God to
thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth
not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute
wrath upon him that doeth evil."

We Will Always Remember!
In the early morning hours of January
28, 2000, an incident would occur that would shock the
sensibilities of an entire state, disrupt the professional
fabric of it's largest law enforcement agency, bring about
massive changes in policing methods, and cause continuous
discussion regarding the relationships of whites and blacks
for years to come.
On
that early January morning, Cornel Young, Jr., son of
the highest-ranking African American police officer in
the state (and a founder of our organization), was shot
and killed by two members of his own department when they
mistook him for a crime suspect. He was the first African
American officer in the State of Rhode Island to have
been killed in the line of duty, and the only known officer
to have died as the result of "friendly fire"
Cornel's untimely death has had a profound
impact and effect on each of us - in the manner in which
we conduct ourselves both personally and professionally.
His life, his actions, his warmth will not be forgotten.
In his living, he was a hero to his family and close friends;
in his dying, he became a hero to an entire community.
To his family, we will always be ever
ready to come to your aid and need, as you are constantly
in our prayers. To his friends, we join you in your memories.
We hope you will join us in sharing your
thoughts and remembrances of our lost brother-in-arms,
and share in our prayers for him. For he has been called
to reside with Him who rules us all. And it is His Plan
that Cornel now follows.
