DSR Michael Lambiotte was able to attend a presentation given by motivational speaker, Matt Griffin. The Journey to Midnight is Matt Griffin's memoir about his childhood journey from the inner city and poverty, to a lacrosse scholarship at Morristown-Beard, one of the richest, most prestigious high schools in the country, to the US Navy, then a career as a law enforcement officer and undercover cop. Matt shares the heartbreak of divorce, the joy of single fatherhood, the dark streets of the drug world, and the thing that almost killed him, and killed 228 police officers in 2019, and continues to kill 22 military veterans per day - SU***DE. With September being National su***de awareness month, Mr. Griffin spoke to a group of people at the CJIS Center at the FBI center in Bridgeport.
