The same city that gave Chance this award is trying to put him in prison for
life for doing his job.
Dear John ,
That’s me, my three kids, and my husband, Officer Chance Bretches, in the
picture I’ve sent you.
<[link removed]>
This photo used to be one of my favorites.
Now looking at it makes me cry.
Because a police-hating, Soros-funded prosecutor...
...is trying to rip my husband away from our family and lock him up for life
for doing his job.
And he might succeed if no one can help us.
<[link removed]>
I should explain.
For nearly 13 years, Chance has been a decorated police officer with the
Austin, Texas Police Department.
But in May of 2020, our lives were turned upside down.
You probably remember what it was like in our country after George Floyd.
Violent, fiery anti-police protests were sweeping through cities.
Every step of the way, they were cheered on by radical politicians,
Soros-funded prosecutors, and the Mainstream Media who lied to us and said,
with a straight face, that these riots were “mostly peaceful.”
It was especially bad here in Austin, Texas.
For three nights in a row, angry, anti-cop mobs rampaged through downtown,
smashing windows, burning police cars and looting stores.
The crowd attacked officers like my husband who were trying to keep the peace,
pelting them with rocks, bricks, and even lit fireworks.
On the third night, things got even worse.
Protestors shut down the interstate, and a crazed mob surrounded Police
Headquarters.
Chance and his fellow officers knew that if they didn’t restore order
quickly, the headquarters, and maybe even the entire city, might burn to the
ground.
Following their training, they fired non-lethal weapons – the same “beanbag
guns” that police have used for years to break up riots – to stop the violence
before things got any worse.
The mob slunk off.
And my husband made it home safe and sound.
But what Chance didn’t know is that one of the beanbags he fired wound up
hurting a rioter’s hand.
And nearly TWO YEARS after my husband helped save our city from being burned
to the ground...
...the county prosecutor decided to charge my husband with “aggravated
assault by a public servant” – a charge punishable by life in prison.
This is the upside-down world we live in now.
A world where lawless thugs who fling rocks at police and try to burn our city
to the ground get off scot-free...
...while law-abiding officers get criminal charges and face life in prison
for following their training and breaking up a mob of rioters.
What are cops like my husband supposed to do when faced with this kind of
out-of-control violence?!
When Chance told me about the charges, I went from disbelief to anger to
despair...and back again.
But it all started to make sense when we learned the prosecutor in this case
owes his election to a wad of campaign cash from none other than radical
Leftist billionaire George Soros.
That was when I realized that the anti-cop crowd is trying to get revenge on
my husband.
They don’t care if my husband is innocent.
They’ll do everything in their power to make cops pay.
It makes me wonder why anyone would ever sign up to join law enforcement these
days.
But nearly 13 years ago, my husband did.
And he did it because helping innocent people is in his blood. His brother is
a firefighter. His dad is a 34-year-old police veteran.
My husband was a youth leader at our church and plays guitar in the worship
band.
He’s served on mission trips – planting churches, planning vacation Bible
schools, and sharing the Gospel.
And he’s done his job as a police officer with honor and dignity, without a
single mark against his record.
Chance put his life on the line to protect our city from a violent, unhinged
mob...
...and life behind bars could be his “reward.”
Even if my husband’s good name is cleared, there is no way we could hope to
pay the mountain of legal bills.
Thankfully, by God’s grace, there is one group who has stepped up to help us
– the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund (LELDF).
If you’ve ever heard of LELDF, you know that their record has made them a
policeman’s best friend.
Jason Johnson and the LELDF board organize and fund the successful legal
defense of good cops wrongly charged for crimes – like my husband.
LELDF hires the best attorneys and secures expert witnesses who will testify
to the truth – without being influenced by political paybacks.
And now they’ve agreed to help Chance.
My friend, you’ve read my email this far so I’m going to ask as boldly as I
can:
Will you help Chance, too?
<[link removed]>
Would you help by sending a one-time gift to LELDF so this amazing group can
defend my husband and the other good police officers who have been wrongly
accused?
You see, LELDF is a non-profit organization.
They rely entirely on the generosity of kind-hearted folks like you to defend
the men and women in blue who defend us.
So with that in mind, please know that any contribution – be it $35, $100,
$500, or even $1,000 – is tax-deductible.
<[link removed]>
But whatever you feel led to give, please send it back quickly.
Chance’s trial starts in December.
Our legal team needs to be working day and night getting ready for his defense.
Because if Chance is found guilty...
...he’ll spend every wedding anniversary, birthday, and Christmas for the rest
of his life in prison.
He won’t be able to take our sons to football games or teach them how to
drive...
He won’t be able to walk our daughter down the aisle on her wedding day...
I can’t bear the thought of life without him.
And I know what happens to former police officers when they get locked up with
thousands of criminals.
My only hope of saving him today is good-hearted patriots like you.
So please, my friend, rush back your gift in the next 24 hours if possible.

With this radical Soros-funded prosecutor on the warpath, your gift of $35
<[link removed]>
– or any amount – could be the difference between Chance clearing his good
name...
...and spending the rest of his life behind bars.
Thank you for reading my email today with such a generous spirit.
I can never express how grateful I am to you – in advance – for helping my
husband fight back.
With hope and thanks,
Kimberly Bretches
P.S. My husband Chance put his life on the line to keep our city safe from a
rabid mob of violent protestors. Now life behind bars could be his “reward.”
And to make things worse, we’re up against the deep pockets of a George
Soros-back prosecutor in court.
We have very little time to act before Chance’s trial begins.
Chance and I have three children – and one more on the way. Please don’t let
them grow up without their father.
Thank you for any help you can send to LELDF today.

More such officers who sacrifice so much for will face similar fates unless we
speak out and stand up for the brave men and women in blue. The next time you
see a police officer in your community, please thank them for their service. To
