        This is the problem with stigma of mental illness! Would have been respectable of them to find him a position within the office so he could receive his pension! They take care of the community and the community should take care of him. Thank you for your services and being a hero

        @ABC This is unacceptable. Whoever made this decision should be ashamed. 10 years of service is along time. You should be bending over backwards to let him be vested

        Ok this is ridiculous. Beyond any descent comprehension. If this town cannot give this officer his 6months and pension due him then they don’t even deserve a police force. The people there should think about that and wonder what it’d b like calling 911 and no1 answers!!

        Is this the way we treat mental health? Is this the way we treat our heroes and public servants. I believe this dishonors the victims and those he saved.
