Directors note:
I am the wife of a retired state trooper and one of the producers on the film. When my husband retired from his 22 year law enforcement career all of our dreams of how his retirement would and should be turned into our nightmares. Little did we know that his years on the job would transform into the demons he battles today. I did not understand what was happening to him and watching his downward spiral was heart wrenching and it has torn our family apart. We now know that he suffers from job related Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
His story has inspired me to write a screenplay titled "The Greater Good" which in turn has inspired me and my producing partner Lisa Edwards to shoot a documentary about these men and women and the family members who love them. It saddens me to know how little our society knows about the struggles these brave men and women face during their years on the job and must carry with them into what should be their hard earned joyful retirement. What I find infuriating is how little the departments themselves do in order to help these men and women. This cannot continue. Their voices have to be heard in honor of those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice - suicide.
