Here's a note from Senior Lead Officer Maria Gray:

California Peace Officers for every department across the state, if not the nation, are breathing acollective sigh of relief with the conclusion of the Christopher Dorner murder spree. The wake of grief he left behind will remain in the broken hearts of untold number of family members, friends, co-workers, their respective communities, forever. We want to thank everyone for all the kind words of support during this tragic, surreal, time that is now, thankfully, over. Maria
