Blue Alert

Suicide liaison appointed

Our board voted to appoint a suicide liaison. As many of you may know, more than 3 times as many officers commit suicide as die in the line of duty. Julie Zielinski is the mother of Deputy Matt Zielinski, Chelan County S.O., who took his own life on 06/01/2005. Julie has "walked and lived this tragedy" and understands what others are going through. Julie‘s blog is http://mattcutshort.blogspot.com and she has also written a book, ―A Life Too Short: Matt‘s Story. The book is currently at the publisher‘s with production scheduled for January, 2012. We welcome Julie‘s insight and support. Contact Julie
