Mourners arrive to pay respects for slain retiring cop
Family, friends and colleagues, while the alleged killer hunting continues, just a few days away from retirement, they come together to greet a senior officer.
Neal Thompson, the senior officer of the detective leader, will be said to be farewell with full police dignity at a funeral at the Victoria Police Academy on Monday.
The 59 -year -old was one of the two Victoria police officers who were killed on August 26th, and presented an order to Disid Freeman on a property in Porpunkah, about 300 km northeast of Melbourne.
The officer was looking forward to spending more time with Lisa with the love of his life, and there was already a list of tasks to deal with his spare time.
In order to remember the man known as Thommo, his partner, where he built a house, he will be among those who are expected to pack his chapel in the academy in the east of Melbourne.
Wayne Gatt, the boss of the State Police Union, said that he deserved the life planned by Det Sen Const Thompson after his police career.
Gatt, “Here 38 years later and at the summit of retirement, decided to put others in front of him, a measure of the lost man,” he said.
“Neal was usually the light side of a dark profession from time to time. A character, the basis point and a comfort for many.”
Det Leader Sen Const Thompson was a comfortable adventurous who revelled large outdoors and spent time with friends and colleagues in nature regularly.
He joined the police in 1987 and worked in 2007 to become a detective in the great fraud staff and the government crime staff before moving to Wangaratta to join the Crime Investigation Unit.
The uniform members of the power will form an honor guard after the serious service on Monday, as for the senior officer Vadim, who died in the same incident.
On Friday, the 34 -year -old funeral attended the funeral and 3000 years old and took the expected number doubled.
Sen Const de Waart-Hottart, a smiling protector with a permanent admiration for the Batman comic book character, sent a real-life superhero.
The couple is allegedly killed, almost two weeks ago after escaping to the bushes.
Hundreds of civil servants continue to look for him in Victoria’s high country.
The latest dark green or khaki tracksuit trousers, dark green rain jacket, brown Blundstone boots and reading glasses wearing 56 -year -old Freeman’ın arrest of a $ 1 million prize was offered.
The biggest prize to be offered for a arrest rather than a conviction in the history of Victoria.
