    Hein was said to be in his mid-40s. He had over 20 years on the job. He was well-liked and respected in the greater Monroe community.

    "The loss is immeasurable to Kiryas Joel and the Greater Jewish community of New York – and above all to every man and woman in the New York State Police," Rabbi Bernard Freilich said today. "He was a person who understood the community, had vast knowledge of our communities' complex laws and customs, and was a man who was always there when needed." [dailyfreeman]

    it sounds like a real loss, indeed it’s rare to find a decent state trooper who doesn’t have an ego that impairs him from doing the job he’s paid to do with tax payers money
