NEW YORK—–(77WABC)
NYPD officers remembered Detective Miosotis Familia during their morning roll call on Monday, four years after her murder.
The 48-year-old mother of three was shot just blocks away from the 46 Precinct on July 5, 2017 — assassinated while sitting in a mobile command unit with her partner.
Officers confronted the shooter and fatally shot him.
Last year, her former precinct in the Bronx held a memorial to honor and remember Familia. Her daughter Genesis had said the pain of losing her mom is still very raw.
4 years ago today, while many were still celebrating the Fourth of July, @NYPD46Pct Det. Miosotis Familia was protecting the people of the Bronx when she was assassinated solely for the uniform she wore.
Miosotis was a mother, daughter, & police officer.
