She was 29 years old, a new mother and a beloved member of her community. She was a St. Croix County sheriff's deputy. She stepped up and stood between those who would do harm and the innocent.

Deputy Leising lost her life Saturday, shot and killed by a suspected drunken driver in a rural area of Wisconsin just a little more than an hour east of Ramsey County.

It is still a noble and needed profession.

Thank you all for what you do. And thank you, Deputy Leising, for your life of service. Godspeed.
