<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1792621/open_sms">Text a Message to the Show</a>In the summer of 2025, one of my patrol officers, Hunter Simoncic, was struck by a car and killed in the line of duty. As part of the grieving process, we are sharing our experiences with you that you might be better prepared for the impossible tasks that immediately follow a line of duty death.One of the most difficult is that of family liaison officer.  A family liaison is assigned to the family of a fallen officer, to advocate for the family's needs, to communicate to them about police traditions and the departments needs, and be the point of contact for the countless questions that arise when everyone has just had their worst possible day.Our guest for this interview is friend of the show Captain Gregg Dorsett.  Captain Dorsett was asked to be a family liaison officer for the Simoncic family and he agreed to let me debrief him and share his experience with you.  To go from police commander and decision maker to family advocate in the midst of strongest possible emotions… well, that's a journey I think everyone can gain from hearing about. Concerns of Police Survivors can help families and coworkers.  Their website is <a href='https://www.concernsofpolicesurvivors.org/'>https://www.concernsofpolicesurvivors.org</a> Music is by the WesterliesHey Chaplain Podcast Episode 126 Part 2 Tags:Family Liaison, Coroner, Family, Funeral Homes, Hospital, Memorials, Morgue, Murder, Paperwork, Planning, Police, Post-Mortem, Processions, Sympathy, Kansas City, Kansas <a rel="payment" href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/heychaplain">Support the show</a>Thanks for Listening!
