In Memorium
Officer Jesse Hamilton

From The Office of the Mayor:

It is with overwhelming sadness that I announce the loss of one of our Pasadena Police Officers.  Officer Jesse Hamilton, assigned to the Patrol Division, was killed in the line of duty early Friday morning.  Officer Hamilton, a 4 ½ year veteran of the department is survived by his wife Amanda and their two children, Audrey and Caelan.

It is at times like this that we are reminded how our officers put their life on the line each day to protect and serve the citizens of Pasadena.  I ask that you keep Jesse’s family in your thoughts and prayers during their time of grief.

Mayor Johnny Isbell
