Brian's name was LaVigne...not Levine...u Mojon! And yea that angered me because non of the idiots around you made sure you knew that. So if you are going to be at his funeral and you are going to speak please get with some1 that knows how to pronounce his name first. let me help you out:::
LA...VINE....
And talk from the heart...not from what them azzholes write 4 YOU.
I know that Chad I fell in love with is still in there...stop listening to those fuks. Remember it's LA VINE

SO sorry to hear about your loss. Sad to hear this happen to this deputy only one shift away from retirement. Prayers to the family and your agency during this tough time. God bless you all.

Speaking of the Tampa Police Department, your agency and personnel were professional, understanding and committed to ensure Brian was honored and the family along with our troops were handled with care that night. Thank you, from a 31 year HCSO LEO.

He was a true leader, he truly looked out for his troops, and his troops loved him. He had a huge following. He did the very things for us that we constantly ask of our districts. The best he could within his very limited power. That explains why he was still a corporal after 31 years and why some of the deputies he trained have become majors and colonels. You can’t look out for your troops if you want to play the rat race game and climb the rank ladder. He knew that. Thank god he was here for us as long as he was as a supervisor. At least there was one squad to bid to in order to get some peace.

In my opinion, knowing everything we know about Murphy’s law with cops, those last few days on shift before retirement are a bad omen. We hear stories our entire careers about cops getting killed days before retirement. He should have been on a desk somewhere. For a few weeks prior. It’s not like we don’t already have deputies and bosses sitting at desks already for most of their careers. You would think after 3 decades they could have extended him that courtesy.

Exactly what someone is screaming in another post. I know my direct supervisors will protect me as I sit right under this tree at my house. Especially after this beautiful soul...Brian...was taken away FROM US!!! RIP big brother. We got your baby if she decides to stay.

He wouldn’t have sat “at a desk somewhere”. He was there with his squad, supporting like he always did. Didn’t have to be there, but he was the guy that always had your back, right to the end. Godspeed.
