NY1, New York City's popular
24-hour news channel, was one of many media outlets to feature John Perry,
and has posted a moving tribute to him on their web site:
http://www.ny1.com/ny/TopStories/SubTopic/index.html?topicintid=1&subtopicintid=1&contentintid=24217
The story concludes with
a John Perry quote, explaining why as a civil libertarian he chose to become
a police officer: "I wanted to be involved in justice, and helping
people to have their rights corrected and protected. I think that,
ideally in a free society, the police are real great protectors of individual
rights."
