For more than two decades, Shane led the Intelligence Branch of the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department. His mission: stop threats before they strike.
He worked nights, weekends, holidays — sacrificing time with his daughters to keep his city safe.
Then one day, the system he served turned on him.
Shane was accused of “obstructing justice” because he built relationships to gather intelligence — thevery thinglaw enforcement intelligence officers are trained to do.
It wasn’t corruption. It wasn’t betrayal. It wasduty.
Now, this American hero sits in a federal prison while his family struggles to get by — his two daughters praying every day their dad comes home soon.
And unless we act now, Shane’s story will be written in silence.
The National Center for Police Defense is fighting to change that — funding his appeal, supporting his family, and demanding justice for a man who gave everything for his country.
