Dear Friend,
There’s a moment every police officer dreads…the moment when doing your job could cost you everything.
For Officer Chance Bretches, that moment has come.
He’s a decorated Austin police officer. A husband. A father of four.
And on December 8th, he’ll walk into a courtroom–not as a hero, but as a criminal in the eyes of an anti-cop District Attorney.
His “crime”? Following his training. Protecting his city.
Doing what every officer in America swore an oath to do.
During the violent 2020 riots, when Austin was under siege, Officer Bretches was out there defending innocent lives.
He used non-lethal measures—the very tactics his department trained him to use—to stop violent rioters from destroying homes, businesses, and lives.
He should have been thanked. Instead, he’s being prosecuted.
Send your best gift now to his defense so Chance can be with his family this Christmas.
The DA knows what he’s doing. This isn’t about justice. It’s about politics. It’s about sending a message to every cop in America:
“If you stand up for law and order…we’ll come for you next.”
They want to make an example out of Chance Bretches.
But I refuse to let that happen and I hope you
Chance’s trial is just weeks away. His family is terrified. His children might not have their dad home for Christmas.
All because he wore the badge with honor and did what he was trained to do.
This is wrong on every level.
And it’s why I’m asking you to stand with him.
He needs a strong legal defense to fight back. Expert witnesses. Court fees. Travel costs. It’s adding up fast.
Without immediate help, this could end with an innocent man behind bars.
We can’t let them win.
Not here. Not now. Not ever.
Friend, I’m standing with Officer Bretches. Will you stand with him too?
Your donation today will help us fight for his freedom and send a message that America still stands with those who protect and serve.
Thank you for being the kind of American who stands up when it matters most.
