Today we remember Special Agent Truett E. Rowe.

On June 1, 1937, Special Agent Truett E. Rowe was shot and killed by Guy Osborne, who was sought by the FBI in connection with his April 22, 1937, escape from the Eufala, Oklahoma, county jail.

Osborne, a fugitive, was wanted in Fort Smith, Arkansas, where a complaint charging him with violation of the Motor Vehicle Theft Act was outstanding. Special Agent Rowe and the local police chief located Osborne at his brother's ranch in Gallup, New Mexico, late on the afternoon of June 1, 1937. Osborne was gathering some of his possessions when he unexpectedly drew a concealed revolver and fired at Special Agent Rowe. The Gallup police chief then attempted to shoot Osborne, but his gun misfired and Osborne escaped. Special Agent Rowe died while the police chief was rushing him to the hospital. That evening, the police chief and another officer succeeded in recapturing Osborne. He was tried in Albuquerque, New Mexico, for the murder of Special Agent Rowe, and was found guilty of first degree murder. On October 5, 1937, Osborne was sentenced to life imprisonment and was sent to the U.S. Penitentiary, Leavenworth, Kansas, on October 6, 1937.

Special Agent Rowe was born in Amity, Arkansas, in March of 1904. He received his appointment as a Special Agent of what was then known as the Division of Investigation and began training in 1935. During his time as an agent, Special Agent Rowe worked in the Nashville, San Antonio, and El Paso field offices.

Today the FBI remembers Supervisory Administrative Specialist Bryan Myers.

On the morning of September 11, 2001, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175 were commandeered by terrorists and crashed into the north and south towers of the World Trade Center in New York City. Later that morning, both towers and surrounding buildings collapsed, sending a large cloud of toxic dust and smoldering debris through lower Manhattan.

Supervisory Administrative Specialist (SAS) Bryan Myers, a member of the Mobile Field Office’s Evidence Response Team, was deployed to the World Trade Center for the FBI’s recovery operation. Working eight- to 12-hour shifts at the Fresh Kills Landfill in Staten Island, New York, Myers’ duties entailed continuous sifting and sorting through World Trade Center debris in an effort to locate human remains, personal items for identification of victims, and recovery of evidence. As part of his official duties, he was exposed to the carcinogens, toxins, and hazardous materials present at the recovery site.

In April 2021, SAS Myers was diagnosed with Stage 3 bile duct cancer, which spread to his lymph nodes. He succumbed to the disease on May 30, 2022. Extensive research by the Centers for Disease Control and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health established sufficient evidence that SAS Myers’ exposure to the air in and around the World Trade Center site either precipitated or accelerated his development of the disease.

SAS Myers was born in January 1968 in Mobile, Alabama. He entered on duty with the FBI in March 1992.

Today the FBI remembers Special Agent William H. Christian, Jr.

On May 29, 1995, Special Agent William H. Christian, Jr., was shot and killed by Ralph McLean, who was being sought in connection with several police shootings and killings in the District of Columbia and Prince George's County, Maryland. McLean was expected to meet a former girlfriend in Greenbelt; and Special Agent Christian, along with 26 other investigators, was conducting a surveillance of the area. At approximately 1:00 a.m., McLean approached Special Agent Christian, who was sitting in his car in a parking lot. Attacking the agent from behind, McLean shot him through the car window. FBI agents and local police pursued McLean to a parking garage, where he killed himself with a gunshot to the head.

Special Agent Christian was born in July 1946 in Baltimore, Maryland. He entered on duty with the FBI through the Baltimore field office in 1975 and was later assigned to Detroit, where he became certified as a SWAT team member. Special Agent Christian was ultimately assigned to the field office in Washington, D.C.
