Sandra Garza received the letter recently, which read in part, “Please forgive me if I am intruding but I wanted to write and let you know how sorry I am about the death of your partner, Brian” adding … “Having recently watched documentary footage of the harrowing events that took place at the Capitol building I wanted to acknowledge the patriotism and selflessness of Brian.”
The letter went on to praise Brian for his patriotism in protecting the Capitol, saying he hopes Sandra can “take some comfort from knowing that it is thanks to law enforcement officers like Brian that the situation did not escalate further and democracy was upheld.”
Sandra told CNN she received zip former President Donald Trump, blasting him … “Trump does not give two craps about law enforcement or Brian.”
