I was 13 when this happened, we had no internet for news to go viral. You got your 30 or 60 minute news on TV, what they chose to show you on any given day. Can't imagine someone NOT stopping a criminal like this today. The sheer number of suspected fires alone should have had him off the street. Appreciative of all I have, and the protected rights to live a free life.

John's wife is something else - so loving and strong. She kept that family together through the most unimaginable situations. God Bless her.

"What if someone wants you dead, but you live to tell." Nailed it. 🎯

Disgusting treatment of a man who trained and lived to protect the town. John, if you're still with us, we can understand you perfectly. You brought up your family to be as strong as yourself, as are your brother and niece. You sir are someone everyone dreams to look up to. I'm angry that you didn't get the justice you deserved and hope your later life is peaceful and happy.

I watch a lot of crime stories, but this one....I'm actually crying over this story. I was is shock when they put John on the screen and I realize he survived. When he came back home and said 'I'm done', I was so happy for him for getting to that place after planning and planning a revenge. Finally he let go of the anger and returned to his life... this family is amazing. And I was so anxious as they kept interviewing his wife alone, I kept wondering the entire time if they had split up at some point, and that last moment where they're together on the beach, that was the happiest part for me. They truly all healed as a family and managed to stay together and live a good life despite what had happened.

I thought he spoke very well.

I saw a longer show about this several years ago, which went more into the back story of who shot him. Apparently, Melvin was a local goon who had a lifelong reputation as a violent psychopath. His whole family are the kind of people you don't want living anywhere near you. So glad the family were survivors, who were able to beat the odds and get on with their lives. True Evil does exist out there and sometimes is passed down genetically.

The fact that both the father and his family survived is a true testament that good can triumph over evil. As long as people are willing to make sacrifices. I do think the legal system and local police department should have done more for the officer and his family. It's scary to know a clan of criminals could control a town with impunity and evade the justice system.

That cousin is a *top quality* cousin, God bless her. She is an excellent argument for the value of extended family.
