Dear Friend,
I’m writing to you to make a plea on behalf of a police officer who can’t speak for himself…
…because he’s on trial RIGHT NOW for a crime he did not commit.
Officer Alfred Flores spent nearly 15 years protecting the people of San Antonio. He’s a husband, a father, and a veteran cop who served with honor on the city’s south side.
But today, instead of wearing his badge, he’s sitting in a courtroom — fighting for his freedom.
Will you rush an urgent donation to defend Officer Flores right now?
In June 2023, Alfred responded to a 911 call about a woman in the midst of a mental-health crisis.
She had barricaded herself inside her home, smashed out windows, and threatened officers with a hammer.
Flores and two fellow officers used department-approved tactics to contain the threat.
They begged her to drop the weapon.
When she advanced on them with a claw hammer, fearing for their safety, they fired.
It was a tragic outcome — but a justified one.
Internal investigators cleared them. But a year later, a political district attorney decided to reopen the case and charge all three with first-degree murder.
Now Alfred Flores — a man who’s risked his life for his community — could spend the rest of it behind bars.
His legal bills are crushing. His family is terrified. And his trial is happening right now.
That’s why my friends at the National Center for Police Defense are stepping in to fight for him.
But they can’t do it without you.
Your gift today will go to Officer Flores’s legal defense, expert witnesses, and helping his family survive this nightmare.
Please — don’t let this good man face the system alone.
He served with honor. He responded with courage. Now he needs you to stand with him.
Thank you for backing the badge when it matters most.
Sincerely,
Sheriff Joe Arpaio
