Planned Parenthood Clinics Are Open, But On Guard
Swasey’s funeral will be open to the public.
If you are wanting to line the route, officers suggest standing by UCCS where Swasey worked as an officer. He said Swasey was not asked to go to the clinic but wanted to go after hearing on the police scanner than another officer had been shot. He and two civilians were killed in a shooting rampage on Black Friday at the Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs.
Officer Garrett Swasey, the UCCS police officer who was killed in the Planned Parenthood shooting a week ago, will be laid to rest today.
“Garrett was prepared to do good things because he put his faith in the lord”, his wife, Rachel, said during the funeral. He was originally from Melrose, Massachusetts, and moved to Colorado to train as a champion ice dancer. “The love of my life gave his life without regret to be sure others would live”. Two teen sisters were killed and three others were wounded.
Stewart will be buried in his hometown of Waco, Texas.
Memorial services and visitation for Markovsky are tomorrow night.
This year marks 50 years since the school originated in Colorado Springs.
