Trooper Gary Daniels, I didn't know you personally. But I do know a lot like you and we mourn the loss of a brother.
Make the call, ask for the help.
No one in this field should be judging their brothers and sisters! We see a lot and deal with a lot. I hope no one made you feel like you couldn't reach out, because there are far more of us who would listen and understand than who wouldn't.
Rest easy, Trooper Daniels.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Trooper Daniels as well as the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
Chief Wells
