But for more than hour, the officer listened to Kevin pour his heart out about his troubles and told him, “I know you think things are bad, but they can get better.”<br/><br/>Kevin says, “Officer Briggs never made me feel guilty for the situation I was in. He made feel like, I understand why you are here, but there are alternatives”<br/><br/>Kevin is just one of countless lives Briggs has saved over his 23 year career.<br/><br/>Briggs, who was promoted to Sergeant five years ago, is humble about what he does.
