  HONORING THE MEMORY OF WICOMICO COUNTY DEPUTY SHERIFF GLENN HILLIARD

  (Mr. HARRIS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HARRIS. Mr. Speaker, I will take a few moments today to honor the 
memory of Wicomico County Sheriff Deputy Glenn Hilliard, a brave 
Eastern Shore police officer who was killed in the line of duty while 
trying to arrest a wanted criminal on probation.
  Officer Glenn Hilliard lived his life as a devoted husband, father, 
and police officer who was commonly referred to as a hero by his fellow 
officers on the police force.
  On June 12, 2022, just a little under a year ago, Officer Hilliard 
was shot and killed by a fugitive who had committed multiple felonies 
and was running from justice.
  As we honor National Police Week, both Glenn Hilliard's life and 
death are a testament to why we should support and fully fund police 
officers as they risk their lives daily to keep us safe.
  Officer Glenn Hilliard served Wicomico County with honor, valor, and 
distinction. In the end, Officer Hilliard's memory is most treasured 
not by how he died but by how he lived as a selfless and heroic police 
officer who put the safety of his community above his own.
