HONORING THE LIFE OF DETROIT POLICE OFFICER LOREN COURTS
(Mrs. LAWRENCE asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Mrs. LAWRENCE. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor the life of fallen
Detroit Police Officer Loren Courts.
Officer Courts died in the line of duty at the age of 40 on July 6,
2022. I and all Michiganders share in the grief during this difficult
time.
A 5-year veteran of the department and second-generation officer,
Officer Courts risked his safety and ultimately sacrificed his life
protecting his community. He will be remembered by his loved ones as a
remarkable public servant, friend, son, husband, and father.
Madam Speaker, I ask all of my colleagues to join me in honoring the
life and service of Officer Loren Courts of the Detroit Police
Department.
