Sergeant Claude C.W. Standridge was celebrated for his service. He was shot in the line of duty in 1972. Only now has his death been linked to his injuries and declared line-of-duty death.
As far as anybody can remember, it’s the first time in the history of the Dallas Police Department that an officer has been celebrated with full honors posthumously 25 years after his death.
Standridge joined the department in 1954. In 1972, he was shot in the face, neck and stomach during a traffic stop. He returned to work 18 more years but suffered multiple setbacks and surgeries, retiring on disability in 1990.Dallas Police Chief Eddie Garcia declared his death line of duty 51 years after he was shot.
Standridge’s daughter and son-in-law Matt Baren never stopped fighting for his death to be categorized in the line of duty and for full honors to be granted.
