8-years ago, CHP Officer Kevin Briggs talked this young man out of jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge.

That young man’s name is Kevin Berthia.
Today he is 30 years old and married with 2 children.
This week he presented Officer Briggs with an award on behalf of the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention.

The story of how Officer Briggs talked Kevin down is remarkable.

As you can see in the picture, Kevin is literally one step away from jumping to his death. But for more than hour, the officer listened to Kevin pour his heart out about his troubles and told him, “I know you think things are bad, but they can get better.”

Kevin says, “Officer Briggs never made me feel guilty for the situation I was in. He made feel like, I understand why you are here, but there are alternatives”

Kevin is just one of countless lives Briggs has saved over his 23 year career.

Briggs, who was promoted to Sergeant five years ago, is humble about what he does. He says, ”they make the decision, when they step back over that rail it takes a tremendous amount of courage”

I salute Sergeant Briggs!

Okay, I wish I would NEVER have to make a post like this.. but here it is.

That’s Emily, a girl I’ve known for about 10 years. That’s her face a couple of days after her boyfriend beat the shit out of her. She has to get facial surgery for broken bones, a titanium plate inserted for her “pulverized cheekbones”.

She has been amazingly open about her experience and very optimistic, retaining her sense of humour, but her ex-boyfriend hasn’t been caught yet. He beat her in Arizona but he might be out of the state by now.

His name is Chris Young. He’s a raver and a DJ. I’m not friends with him on facebook, so I can’t get any better pictures than that. But you can see that she trusted him. And he broke that trust in trying to break her.

If you see him, please call the Tucson Police. IF you know ANYTHING about him, call the police.

It’d be great if people could reblog this for her.

Yes, reblogging this WILL make you blog look ugly because domestic violence is ugly. Reblog it anyways.

I live in Arizona, and am visiting Tucson tomorrow… definitely going to look for him. T__T

I live in the UK but I don’t give a fuck. I have American followers <3

This is William Cullen Klein, 19, he was killed Friday in an accident in Tianjin, China.

Klein, who grew up in Melbourne Beach, was a student attending Florida State University. He was in China participating in a six-week Chinese language studies program.

His father, veterinarian William Klein, owner of Pine Castle Animal Hospital in Orlando, said Chinese police reports indicate that his son had been on the roof of his dormitory to view the nighttime skyline; he lost his footing while trying to climb to a higher location on the roof, Local 6 News partner Florida Today reported.

Klein planned to graduate FSU this summer with highest honors, majoring in Chinese and Spanish and minoring in French and Arabic. He had gone on Jesuit retreats with his father and recently was on a mission to Haiti.

“He was incredibly driven,” said his father. “He was such a role model.”

His father, who lives in Melbourne Beach, said he and Klein’s mother have been receiving numerous calls and messages stating what a positive influence Klein had been.

RIP
