New York State Police Trooper Joel R. Davis was unable to finish building a tree house for his daughter before he was killed in the line of duty on July 9. But a group of Watertown, NY-area law enforcement officers came together and joined forces this past week to make sure Trooper Davis’ project got done for his youngest child, 13-year-old Jaila.
State police spokesman Jack Keller said that 35 active and retired officers from the state police, the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department and the Watertown Police Department spent a day in the family’s backyard to finish the enclosed wooden tree fort for the trooper’s youngest child. Many of the officers were his friends, the
