Gary,

I’ve been a Texas law enforcement officer since 1987. I wanted to thank you for this episode featuring Kevin Conner. As a member of Officer Down I remember when he was killed last year. I didn’t know Kevin but we shared a common bond. Ours is the only profession where being murdered during the workday is a real possibility. Yet men and women put on the uniform and go to work daily. They are an amazing group of people and you did Kevin great honor.

Thank you.

Choctaw,
We are just doing what should be done anytime one of our great law enforcement officers is killed in the line of duty. We were especially close to Kevin as he would come to Texas and visit from time to time. He was killed by a young man on a routine traffic stop. Had Kevin killed the young man, Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson and Obama would have been in NC before the next morning crying police brutality. Since this case did not fit the media's narrative, they elected not to cover the killing. While CARNIVORE does not have the number of viewers that CNN has, we felt that it was important to bring attention to the loss of a great young man and pray that he is not forgotten.
I ask that all of you tune into CARNIVORE at 12:30 PM today or 7:00 PM on Sunday as we pay tribute to one of the nicest young men that I have known. It was extremely difficult for me to watch this episode.
Adios,
Gary

Gary, very good show and tribute to Kevin! I set the DVR to record it so I wouldn’t miss it. Good hunting and glad you had the footage for the tribute. Such a sad story. Thank you!!

Gary,

I am a Trooper here in North Carolina. Kevin was/is a good friend and coworker. I just wanted to say, thanks for what you've done. It really does mean a lot to the guys around here. Its still hard to believe he's gone. Just watching a video doesn't do justice to the kind of man he was. But you did a great job showing the world a small glimpse.

Unfortunately many of us do not have a cable provider that was willing to air your show. Many people would really love to see the entire episode who didn't get to see it; myself included. Is there any way I could get a digital copy of it? I'm willing to pay for any postage or time put into getting me a copy.

Again, thanks!

Seen the post and recorded the show to watch later. Just watched it and must say it was a very good show, emotional at times. He really enjoyed that cat.

Thanks for sharing it.
