Lane and Patty Judson

Lane & Patty Judson's daughter Crystal was fatally shot by the husband she was divorcing - Tacoma Washington's Police Chief David Brame - one day after city officials publicly announced that her claims of abuse and threats would not be investigated. It was a very public murder-suicide, executed in a shopping center parking lot with their 2 young children running to them. Chief Brame died that day but Crystal lingered. All of us here in Tacoma held our breath praying for what couldn't be. She had taken a contact headshot with a police-issue glock. Her family stayed with her in the hospital for that week before she died, and it was during that time Lane was given the time to whisper to his daughter... Please take time to visit their website: http://www.lanejudson.com/index.htm

Lane and Patty Judson have been helping victims in other states fight for legislation involving Officer Domestic Violence. They have agreed to help us reach out to lawmakers in Louisiana. God Bless them!

Thank you Lane and Patty!

  1. What a terrible final act of total control. Sickening. Thank God her parents are being proactive for all other victims of OIDV, true heros.
