The Oklahoma Highway Patrol  sadly announced the line of duty death of Trooper Vernon Brake.

On April 8, 2026, at 11:27 a.m., a vehicle traveling southbound on I-35 lost control for an unknown reason and crossed the center cable barrier. The vehicle struck Trooper Brake, who was traveling in the northbound lanes just south of Hefner Road in Oklahoma City.

Trooper Brake was pronounced deceased at the scene. The driver of the other involved vehicle, along with a four-year-old passenger, were also pronounced deceased at the scene.

Trooper Brake was a graduate of the 56th OHP Academy in 2006 and has proudly served the Oklahoma Highway Patrol for nearly 20 years, with a significant amount of time assigned to Troop S (commercial motor vehicle enforcement). After his graduation from the academy, he also served in Oklahoma and Logan Counties.

Trooper Brake is survived by his wife and two children.

Rest In Peace, Hero💙🖤

BREAKING: FBI and our partners have arrested a former SOCOM employee, who supported our top-level military warfighters, for allegedly transmitting classified information to a member of the media.

Outstanding work by FBI Charlotte and the FBI Counterintelligence & Espionage Division - as well as our TheJusticeDept partners.

Let this serve as a message to any would-be leakers: we’re working these cases, and we’re making arrests. This FBI will not tolerate those who seek to betray our country and put Americans in harm’s way.

April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month 🚗📱

Last month, one of our officers was injured after a driver ran a red light and admitted they weren’t paying attention. Thankfully, the officer is okay.

A few seconds of distraction can change a life forever.

🚨 OUTRAGEOUS: Sacramento Politicians Just Opened the Door to Release SERIAL SEX OFFENDERS and CHILD PREDATORS🚨

In a stunning and deeply troubling move, Assembly member Stephanie Nguyen and Sac DA Thien Ho agreed to amend AB 2727 to allow SERIAL RAPISTS and CHILD PREDATORS to qualify for “elderly parole” at age 65…even when sentenced by a judge to life in prison.

Let that sink in.

These are not low-level offenders. These are the worst of the worst—repeat predators who terrorized multiple victims.

👉 People like David Funston…who was sentenced to THREE life terms and readily admits he’s still sexually attracted to children.
👉 People like Roy Waller-the NorCal rapist who terrorized countless women for years and was sentenced to 800+years to LIFE.

Under this amendment, predators like these get a shot at release—simply because they got older.

David Funston was released at 64. Do we all feel safer from this pedophile simply by waiting til he’s 65?

⚠️ Age does NOT erase predatory behavior.
⚠️ Time does NOT undo the trauma inflicted on victims.
⚠️ And the public should NOT be forced to take that risk.

This is exactly what’s broken about California’s parole system:

• Violent offenders get endless chances
• Victims are forced to relive their trauma at every hearing
• Public safety takes a back seat to political deals

📢 We should be strengthening protections—not allowing early parole eligibility for serial predators.

STOP AB 2727.
