Jon, my niece Quinn’s husband, is a dedicated Sheriff’s Deputy in Indiana. On May 22, 2… Theresa Bilse-Kraft needs your support for Support for Jon’s Recovery

Deputy Jon Samuelson of the LaPorte County Sheriffs Department is the officer in critical condition after being shot this morning at Franciscan Hospital in Michigan City. There are official press releases with more details. We want to share this picture of Jon with K9 Bosco, and ask for prayers for Jon.

We have so many great pictures and videos of Jon along with Bosco, like this one, helping us shine a light on the community good done by those in law enforcement through ride-alongs, K9 demos, and videos highlighting local first responders. Jon is one of our Heroes.

In true hero fashion it seems Jon had stopped to help what appeared to be a stranded motorist, taking him to the hospital. That very person he helped is the one who later shot him.

No sense can be made of senseless acts. We turn to God with hope and prayers for healing for Jon. We ask you to look at this picture. To put a face to this heroes name if you did not know him and please… pray for Deputy Jon Samuelson, his family, and his brothers and sisters in the first responder family.
