“It was so difficult to take in. It takes time to absorb, and then you feel the need to make sure that what you hear was true – and it didn’t take that long to set up. From there, the police officer’s instinct is to assess the situation and continue,” he said.
“Perhaps the most emotional (second) was to see William the morning after (the car accident),” he said for the week that followed Diana’s death. “I saw William walking his dog outside, and I walked up to him and said, ‘I’m sorry to hear your bad news.’ Unfortunately William said, ‘Thank you.’ Don’t want to trespass on his grief, then walked on, and William continued to walk his dog.
