August 2009 Officers of the Month: P.O. Dave Cornell & P.O. Matthew Welle
Posted By: amber on August 5, 2009 in Officer of the Month - Comments: No Comments »
In August of 2007, the 7th District lost Police Officer Norvelle Brown, and the loss of a family member is always very hard.
Officer Matthew Welle and his Field Training Officer, Dave Cornell, assisted Detective Donald Williams with the Circuit Attorney’s Office in locating an essential witness for
a murder trial.
Detective Williams was having a difficult time locating Lamont Johnson, III and noticed Officer Welle had completed a Field Interview Report on him. The detective contacted Officer Welle and asked if he remembered preparing a Field Interview Report on this subject. Officer Welle did remember and had the witness’s current address. On August 4, 2009, Officers Welle and Cornell located Lamont J., at his residence and conveyed him to North Patrol for Detective Williams.
Lamont J, testified at the trial and the State received a GUILTY verdict. If Officers Cornell and Welle hadn’t completed a Field Interview Report on Lamont J., there is a strong possibility that the Circuit Attorney’s Office would have had to proceed without the vital witness. The trial for suspect Antonio Andrews, the man accused of Norvelle’s murder, was held in August of last year.
Officers Cornell and Welle did an outstanding job in assisting the Circuit Attorney’s Office by providing vital information in locating a key witness for the trial of slain Officer Norvelle Brown. They should be commended for their initiative.
