Today we honor Police Officer James Le’Treall Manor, who was killed on this day in 2009.

Officer “Jamie” Manor joined the LVMPD on May 20, 2007. His imposing physical size was only eclipsed by the size of his heart and the magnitude of his character. In the early morning hours of May 7, 2009, Officer Manor was responding to a reported violent domestic disturbance when his patrol cruiser collided with another vehicle. Officer Manor had to be extricated from his patrol car, and died from his injuries.

Officer Manor was only 28 years old. He left behind a daughter, 10 brothers and sisters, his mother and a large extended family.

We will never forget.
