“In this time in our lives where we need to build better (relations) between the community and the police, Officer Feliciano and Sgt. Lopez represent everything that’s good,” the report quoted Martin as saying. “I have seen both Officer Feliciano and Sgt. Lopez in situations ranging from shootings to holding a grandmother’s hand who just needed someone to talk to. Those are God-given gifts. We try to teach those in the academy. We do the best we can. But you can only teach and model so much.”
