CHP memorial ceremony honors officers killed in the line of duty

The ceremony honors 232 people who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California Highway Patrol honored officers killed in the line of duty at its annual memorial ceremony Tuesday.

The ceremony honored 232 people who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.

There will be a 21-gun salute by the honor guard, laying of the wreath, bagpipes, and buglers, a flyover, and a roll call of fallen heroes and more, according to CHP.

Gov. Gavin Newsom spoke at the ceremony, saying loss never gets easier.

"I want you to know how personal that is and how mindful I am of the world we're lived in. We heard it even yesterday, how divided we are and how we've lost a little bit of trust, but no we haven't lost respect for the profession. Know that all of us care deeply about public safety," Newsom said.
