California Peace Officers Memorial |
California Peace Officers Memorial Ceremonies have been conducted in the State Capitol since 1977. It is a ceremony that honors the officers who have fallen in the line-of-duty the preceding year, recognizing the sacrifice of those loved and left behind. Three bronze figures represent the more than 1,200 peace officers that have died in the line-of-duty since California became a state. His bronze figures depict a county sheriff of the 1880s, a state trooper of the 1930s, and a city patrolman of the 1980s.
