In Memphis, friends are remembering a man who not only made the ultimate sacrifice Saturday night but who spent his entire life serving and protecting others.
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — “He was a great guy. He really was.”

This is how Mike Maharrey remembers his friend Sean Bolton.

People all across the country are rallying around the Memphis Police Department and Officer Bolton’s family. Condolences are coming from law enforcement officers from Los Angeles to New York, and even the White House has reached out.
Officer Bolton joined the Memphis Police Department in October 2010. Before that, he served as a Marine in Iraq.

The veteran was killed in his own community over less than 2 grams of marijuana, something many in the community are struggling to come to grips with.
