Yes. I always wait to see if someone else will do anything. There is never someone else and I am the one who end up helping. I hope to get rid of my codependency some time in the future and be selfish like everybody else.
When my parents adopted me, they made my middle name the name of my birth mother. I am proud of that name, and I love her so much. I hope that Hope can forgive her birth mother too
Also the words that came out of his sergeant at 12:14 "I thought my job was to teach him. I thought my job was to talk to him about getting home safe and making mom proud. But here we see this man teaching me", moved me. Officer Holets and Sergeant Edison are both great cops and great human beings.
You are 100% correct!!That's what many people don't understand. Cops are people. A good cop is usually going to be a good friend, good brother/sister, etc. Usually a bad cop is also a horrible husband/wife, father/mother.
Ru Ba exactly. My opinion is that American police forces attract a disproportionate amount of people who just itch to be aggressive and brutal - but I can also acknowledge that there are truly decent and caring officers that want to do the job with humility and justice. This man is a good human, so therefore he makes a good officer. To paraphrase Wayne Dyer: “when you squeeze an orange, what comes out is orange juice, because that’s what it contains. When you are squeezed, what you contain is what comes out.” This man (and his wife) were obviously filled with mercy and selflessness. This country needs to change the kinds of officers that they hire, and stop punishing the whistleblowers trying to uphold their duty to protect the people and do the right thing.
b ray nobody said hero, it says heroism which is a word of its own that is associated with audacity and spirit. No he isn’t say a war hero, but he sure is that kids hero/saviour (litteraly). On the other hand, you’re here deciding what counts as heroic when you yourself have never done anything remotely close to even daring.

@Yee0j No, sometimes you just can't manage alone and often it is very hard to ask for help. This guy has a high internal moral motivation which is inspiring and literally makes a change for others.
My husband and I adopted 6 kids out of foster care. We raised 40 foster children. We have contact with a lot of out kids. Congratulations to you and your family!!
Ohhhh wow!! I always wanted to foster children but with a whole rescue farm AND my own adult kids moving back home i dont have time or bedrooms to devote to young kids right now. ..someday. .
I was afraid that helping the addicted couple would end when the baby was born, but they continued to help them and they became sober. Wonderful story.
that's what made me happy the most, the fact they believed that the couple could be redeemed and get better. and they did help them! and I'm so happy for that
It is nice that the birthmom and dad has a chance to see her grow up and also for Hope to see them later in life if she wants. OMG such a wonderful story. Little baby Hope.
@Nikol S. Ervant Sobriety is the state of not being under the influence of any mind-altering substance. Similar is how "driving under the influence" may refer to alcohol or any other mind-altering substance. The psychiatric field definitely does not use the term "clean," because the opposite of that is dirty. "Junkie" is quite pejorative and dehumanizing too. Nice try at being condescending.
Thank you for saying sober instead of “clean”. We aren’t dirty - it’s actively using and we aren’t clean - we’re in recovery or sobriety. 5 years and counting in long term recovery from opiate use disorder and working with moms actively using, seeking recovery and/or in long term recovery 💜 #RecoveryIsPossible
I’m crying really like a baby. As a recovering addict, this is just.. these are incredible people. 17 months sober & never going back! ** edit, March 2023 - thank y’all so much for the loving, supportive comments! It means so much to me!! 💕 My husband & I just celebrated our 3 years clean mark in February! We DO Recover!!! ❣️🖤❣️
Congratulations, I hope you're still doing good and being strong. If not, you can always start over again. Do you remember the dad said everyone is redeemable. He's right.
@@MrPeteDane But it is still true though, the one who hears someone crying for help is responsible, then has to make a decision wether to help or turn to the other side, the point is that he/she heard and can't unhear, whatever choice he/she makes
The funny thing is there are probably so many cops that do special things every day that no one hears about bc all the media talks about is the negativity of those who protect and serve
That's what decent people do there are heroes everyday nobody ever hears about them, this guy is amazing, who else would have done this if they had the means 2 help? Not many!
Can we not only appreciate the officer and his wife, but Crystal herself? She is an addict, BUT she knows that the baby deserves more than she can give her, and seems like a good person that got stuck in a hard place. I hope she continues her sobriety. And Crystal, if by some miracle you see this comment, you are wonderful for giving your baby to such wonderful people. I hope nothing but the best for you and your family. 💚
Yes she did something amazing and yes she did fuck up her baby but I am sorry it isn’t as easy as ppl want to think it’s so hard but I can tell you it can happen and none of my addiction had been done thru my pregnancy and I did the best thing I could not to see my baby go thru what I can’t and I know it is not my baby fault
@@minxymoo2325 see the thing is, not everyone believes in abortions. Every one's opinions differ and some people carry the guilt. In her case, the baby is healthy and fine and now has a happy family. It may not seem like a big deal, but it takes a lot for someone to give up a child they have carried while battling their demons. So I can respect her.id advise you do the same or get out of my comment thread. Then again your most recent comments are all complaining. So is that your personality trait?😹😹😹
@@minxymoo2325 you would rather her kill the baby?? As if thats not just as bad? You know what they say. The people who are for abortion are already born. I bet if you asked that baby, that baby would want to at least have a chance at life. Some people, even though they're in a messed up place, still want to give that child a chance. You can't blame them for that.
I know everyone’s praising the guy and he deserves it. But like, can we talk about his wife? Like she is such an Angel, to just accept that like “okay” without even thinking about it. Like their relationship is amazing and she obviously trusts him a lot and she’s just cute in general in appearance and in soul. They are such a blessed couple.
Thats what happy couples do. My sister in law came out of class (college) and her mom called and told her a friend's friend is losing her child due to drugs and if she want to adopt the baby and without hesitation she said "yes". She later went home told her husband they are adopting and he says "okay" lol. After the adoption of baby girl, two years after to be exact, the baby has a sibling, baby boy.... now adopted by my brother and sister in law. Its stressful but worth it. My niece and nephew are so adorable and amazing ❤.
@@Baybieangel209 There's a huge difference between asking and springing it on her. Welcoming a new baby is a big responsibility, and "happy couples" need to include each other in major life-changing decisions like this. Even if he knows his wife and knows that she'd be willing to adopt, he should have at least checked with her out of respect (and to hear any concerns) before making the offer, instead of agreeing to adopt and then TELLING her that he'd made the decision on behalf of both of them. I understand that in the moment he was likely very emotional and might not have thought that much, but making major decisions without your spouse's input not something that we should be glorifying by any means.
His wife is everything I want to be, she’s hopeful and positive, she took what any person would’ve panicked about or made worse, positive. I know magic isn’t real but holy hell shes magic
Stupid cop, the just took the child from his mom, why didn't they help the woman from addiction drugs, and give her money and job, stupid government bad fake people steal the child poor
What an amazing man. And his equally amazing wife. This is a hero. Not a celebrity. Now he has another child to feed, clothe and take care of and he only considered the urgent need. Truly amazing.
Dude adopts a drug addicts child not out of what's gonna make him famous but what's the right thing to do. Dude totally deserves all happiness in the world
I adore the way he lights up when he talks about his wife saying “okay”. It shows that they are truly compassionate loving people ☺️ what a wonderful story.
@@Aaron-gt6xn Yeahhh, the kind that some (well most tho they won't admit) can only hope & pray to find. At least I do.....always have. Like soulmates u knw; now not so much😅...tbh I lost faith in human beings . Though still love to see it😍
People like Crystal are almost always painted as evil, horrible people, but something must have happened to get her in that situation in the first place. Three years later, I hope the baby is doing well and is healthy and happy, and Crystal is able to spend more time with her daughter.
People have this idea that addiction is a simple choice. A choice that only bad people make. But truth be told, there are a million and one ways someone can fall into addiction and it can happen to anyone. It’s easy to believe it can never happen to you or anyone around you, but addiction is far more common then people realize. Cause some people also forget that drugs aren’t the only form of addiction either.
Yep, my sister was in a domestic violence situation. Her bf threw a ceramic dish at her and it almost cut her finger off. She had to have surgery and was prescribed an opioid for pain. She became addicted and her neighbor who was a dealer took advantage of her vulnerability. He basically had her kidnapped. He made her take drugs, drive him places in stolen cars and even had her new boyfriend killed after she had finally got away. She finally got away again almost a year after he killed her bf. She love fat but it was the only way for her to get away from him go good.
Sometimes they have to help themselves first before you can help them. Are you gonna help a beggar? Knowingly you only gave them money so they can buy more drugs?
@@stefalexandra6127 🤢 you and your lack of humanity and empathy is truly SICKENING!! If these people could help themselves and heal themselves I am sure they would! They have given up on themselves and life.... so how are they supposed to 'hElP tHeMsElfEs'?!! You really need to EDUCATE yourself and stop making stupid, ignorant comments. I surely hope that you or your loved ones don't end up in this situation because I wouldn't wish it on anyone! And to answer your question, yes! I have given a panhandler (not 'beggar') money knowing damn well what they were probably going to use it for but that is not my business. I do it because I care about their suffering and that they are a HUMAN being who deserves to be seen and cared about!!
@@pelviselvis3421 judging by your emotional response you lack clarity. I only made one comment prior to my original message. This is the real world. Not everyone can help themselves and you're the problem if you think it makes you a good person just because you gave them money knowingly they would use it for drugs. You say it's not your responsibility but the fact that you gave that person money makes it your business. If someone wants something they have to put in the work instead of just hoping someone would give them money for their addiction. I like to thank you for twisting my response because your entire comment was done out of emotion. What the OP said implies everyone has to help because those people are asking for help and you heard them. But that's not always the case hence why I said what I said.
Absolutely. The couple weren’t violent or trying to get away, they were just suffering, and this cop gave them what they truly needed at the moment: compassion. Not everything needs to be solved with a bullet, and I WISH that was the norm with cops instead of the exception.
@@glennkometscher7928 paid bots. Like lots of these comments.sometimes I feel like all of this internet is s simulation and we really aren't talking to others. Except in direct interactions we purposely seek and can validate in reality. Like these comments are just a giant AI. Occasionally I get a reply to either challenge or support my idea. Even if I'm just being facetious I still get replies costed in genuine concern.
I'm watching this again. I'm so happy for the baby. She won't suffer in a foster home being molested and abused now. So many kids say they're abused in foster homes. This is so nice and loving
They dont seem like they want this attention, so I doubt that will ever happen. But the child has problems for sure! ALL heroin babies wil have problems forever. So sad!!
I’m a recovering addict. I did it all by myself as my family and friends deserted me. I would’ve given anything to have just anyone take my hand and offer help. When you’re in your addiction it’s almost impossible to help yourself, and honestly I don’t know how I did it! He is an amazing person!!! 🙏🏽
I was not surprised to hear this at all when I heard it, I went to school with Ryan for Aviation maintenance, and even at his young age then he deeply impressed me and we became good friends. He is one of the finest people I have ever met
I live in Albuquerque and I did not hear about this. It's sad that our media is full of politics and crime. Thank you for shedding some light on our city. We need this.
Some people say they are just one couple but they can inspire others to help others and here in America too we got plenty of people in need with problems that maybe we could help
You really think that its everyone business? What if you're dope head with this same situation? You want the whole city to know? Doubt it. Highly doubt it.
It's because their both selfless, pretty rare these days to have people who truly are.. Everybody, wants to *be* loved like that, but rarely wants to love someone els like that.(cause of greed, vanity, pride and jealously)
I just came across this amazing story today. America needs more stories like this instead of all the evil that's blasted on television and social media . It's heart warming and so very special. God bless this couple and all of their children. "A servant's heart" powerful description.
Just the fact that this mum gave him her daughter to protect her and give her a better home shows that she has a loving heart. Sometimes loving someone means saying goodbye
i hope she won't bring another human into this world without changing tho..it's not always christmas where someone will just pop out and adopt a baby..she's very lucky to have that cop
U don't have to be religious or believe in one religion as Hindu sikh Muslim and Christian believe earth made by their own God this way there should be four earth but earth is one and God is in actions which this police person have Look inside yourself r u really a gud person then God is in you that's all
We adopted our youngest son, whose birth mother was an addict. If you’re looking to adopt, don’t be afraid to take on one of these children, they may need a little extra help, but they will bring you joy. All of our children bring us happiness but he is the joy of our family, he’s the youngest, and he is surrounded and protected by all of us. He is successful and thriving, he doesn’t have any issues as far as behavior or substance abuse attraction. He’s actually a very humble, kind and funny guy, we love him so much.
@C H it's not always a choice. People are prescribed medicines by the doctor that they trust, and become addicted. Eventually the pills aren't enough and they move on to stronger things....from the streets. Nobody wakes up and says "today im going to become an addict and spend the rest of my life in misery." 🙄 Even for those who did choose to use opiates the first time, are they not deserving of help just because they made a bad choice? Have you never made a bad decision? The wrong decision? Trust me, it only takes 1 or 2 times of using heroin to become addicted to it. That quick, a person finds themselves trying to get more bc they literally feel like their body is going to shut down if they don't. All because of the one bad decision. Again, nobody wakes up dreaming of becoming an addict and living that lifestyle. I sure hope that you or someone you care about never has a bad day and makes that bad decision. The way things are going in the world today with addiction, it is *very* possible and *very* likely that addiction will hit close to home for you, and I hope no one turns their nose up at your family/friend and says "you shouldn't have chosen to abuse opiates." That would really suck. 😬🤷
When you have a baby in your stomach and continue to love your shitty life, you deserve to be told the truth of what you’re doing. If you wanna call it judgement, then you’re very weak
I grew up knowing not to touch hard drugs. Tough life, many hardships but still knew the rules of addiction. Person choice is what it is and I have seen the devastation and so many deaths and lives destroyed so STFU. DON'T TAKE IN THE FIRST PLACE.
Ok First, This Man is amazing and the true definition of a Policeman 👮 Second, Bless his wife who I imagine wasn’t surprised because she knows her Husbands Heart, she accepted it with excitement, and Third thank you Jesus for bringing the Mother and Ryan together to assure the baby will have a loving family and hopefully initiative to the Mother to seek help for her addiction! Amazing Story!
Yes this officer is what we need. He seen someone in help and offered everything he could to ensure they’d be safe their child included. He’s an amazing man and I hope his family has many more blessings to come.
Except,sometimes people are a lost cause because the damage is too deep, beyond the reparable stage.Sad truth. He might've found them at the perfect time. Maybe they did make it.
My wifes sister passed away and we took her 3 kids. I have 3 of my own so it wasn't easy but I couldn't see them split up or in foster care. They needed family. Best decision of my life. I would do the same for any child.
Im so sorry for your loss, i hope things get easier and i pray that youll have some support around you. Those kids will know you didnt give up on them and thats so important
People just assume that all drug addicts and people like her are just bad but she’s just a lost souls who can’t get off these horrible chemicals, so if you see someone like this just know that they need help not punishment
NewtslayerProductions yeah. Look at RDJ! He used to be an addict, and with the help of his amazing wife he turned his life around and did an amazing job as iron man. :)
Martha Banks When I was a teenager I used drugs, I drank, I pretty much tried whatever was out there.” These are his exact words and thats what i stated i dont really know what but he said he did drugs lfmao get your facts straight
It is his purpose to be a policeman . You don’t find selfless , kindhearted loving police these days . He is truly a man of Christ .May God bless him and his family !
@Charlee Barlee is correct. In general, it is difficult to see any person or group acting selflessly when you watch the news. Unfortunately, the news is quite often the only place to find out what’s happening in the world around us, especially in a geographically large place, like the United States.Do you not believe that it’s possible that one or more good natured, selfless cop can be found within every city and county? The media can only show you a glimpse of what happens in the world around us, and for a variety of reasons, they prioritize, sensationalize, exaggerate, and sometimes completely lie about news that induces fear and creates the perception of a nation divided by race, political ideology, etc. I am not trying to say the man featured in this clip doesn’t deserve the praise and recognition he received, but to think that he is the only police to have done something like this, or to believe that selfless, kindhearted loving police don’t exist everywhere is a misperception that develops from depending on the media to paint the picture of how the world really is. Look up any city, any police department here on RUclips - surely you will find dozens of stories about police doing wonderful things,
The news only presents an extremely small percent. I know more decent people who are officers like this guy than whose who aren’t. If more weren’t good people, we’d have a more obvious problem
I wish I had neighbors like this officer and his beautiful family. Just going to bed at night and waking up the next morning would be made brighter (knowing) I was in close proximity to true goodness.
Awe, my mom named me Hope because she said I was the hope for her future because she was on drugs as well. She’s stayed clean since getting pregnant with me and I’m almost 21. She’s now a homeschool mom to my 3 little siblings and has been married to my step dad since I was 4. I love this story.
except I bet 100% that this guy is probably Conservative and very Christian. Both things that the liberals are so hateful against. Democrats hate Christians and police officers
@@rihanajan9798 not true I don't know where your hearing this but I have a relative and a family friend that is in the law enforcement and he's a democratic voter also there Christians that means your wrong about that
This couple are amazing for helping the birth parents too. Noone plans to be an addict. I hope my son pulls thru it too. I have the most admiration for them
I'm adopted. This cop's kindness brings me to tears. So much humanity. We need more cops like him. God bless him and his family. 🙏May Hope grow big and strong. Good cops like him make the world a better place.
Damn I wish my birth mother was like this, kept shooting up with me, I was born addicted and I was taken away by the state at 6 months. My birth mother still doesn’t realize that you can’t be an addict and a mother. 21 years later she’s back in jail doing the same thing.
Both him and his wife are literal angels on Earth that found each other, and were meant for each other. They could do a lot of good in this world. So much love for them all ❤️
Honestly, you should go with Jesus, it is very worth going with him. Though Jesus does promises tough times like trials and tribulations, you got to know that this life is only temporary and that the spiritual side is eternal and it would be wise to seek God for yourself. But you should seek him with all your heart. Sorry for the many words but I just wanted to make sure I tell you what you should know, also God is ready with open arms to receive you and any pain or sorrow or any mistake you are afflicted by God can heal you. Have a blessed day.
My Father was a police officer in Albuquerque, years ago. But I have a feeling that he was a monster. He was in our home……a monster. Good for this gentleman. He’s a hero and I applaud him.
My story exactly. My father was a Albuquerque Police Officer when I was born. But my dad was horrible and I have a feeling that he was fired. He passed about 5-6 years ago. Not one person has shed a tear, especially me, since his death. I still wish I could get the real story from APD about him.
He looks older than 27 I was taken aback when they said his age too...He looks at least 35. But also 4 kids by 27, he started young if the oldest was 4 he was 23 as a first time dad...you dont see many men now a days who are that young stick around let alone want even more that close together.
Yeah, he’s a very young man. It’s amazing that the wisdom and intelligence he has at this age is more than what people acquire in their lifetime. Great fella
she got help and is sober now! all she needed was support from people and got herself out of the horrible situation she was in. Shows just how much kindness can affect someones life.
@Jayla Ro yeah I know... I just would like the bad ones not to exist. Can you imagine that just last year police stopped me and wanted proof that my son in the stroller really was my son? You see... My son is mixed. They first wanted my and his ID. Ok. Why does he have a different family name? Because he he has his father's family name, sir. Duh. Then why does he not look like you at all and his name is foreign? Ehm... The child is mixed, sir. Dad is African. Can't you see we both have Italian ID though? Ok. So where is the dad? At work. Sir. He is working. Good. Do you have any family pictures on your phone where you are with the child and possibly his father. I proceeded to show captain dumb all my family album. Included the pictures in the hospital with me giving birth. That one was the last. Yeah. Officer got a good shot of baby head coming right out of my vajayjay. Captain dumb then got angry at me for showing him such graphic imagery during a control. I just answered I wanted to give concrete proof the child was mine and I was not trying to kidnap him and sell him to the Satanist church for sacrifices. (I was and fry at that point. Officers had been rude and did not allow me to pick up my son when he was crying so I kinda blew up and purposefully show him the picture of me birthing the child) I got brought to the station and got a fine for "disrespecting the officer". I appealed that shit and ended up not having to pay anything because actually it was the officer who went too far with me, assuming I kidnapped my son and being rude about it. And then bringing me to the station for showing him a picture and making a snarky remark. Still the officers face when he saw that picture is one of the funniest thing I have witnessed. He looked like he had just seen a ghost.
@@irenerandazzo4206 the fine once you proved it is out of order but honestly the checking if you're the mother or not shouldn't be seen as a negative, I'm a parent myself and if anything it makes me feel a little better for my sons safety knowing that police check things like that, sure it's frustrating if you're the parent but then to imagine someone did take your child and was caught because the police thought something was suspicious and looked into it, you would see them as a hero and your childs saviour, try to think about things objectively.
Jayla Ro Naw their not overshadowed by the bad ones.. it’s just what do you see in the world around you? Do you see the evil or do you see the good? It’s all just a choice really...

Let’s take a minute to appreciate how she wanted her baby to have a better life. She knew she wouldn’t be able to take care of the baby, so she did the right thing in that situation.
VideoEtTaceo Thank you :)
it warmed my heart when that part came up in the video.
Lara Yes, it was unselfish!!
she mama'ed up imo, and i hope that she manages to get and keep her life in order and possibly even maintain some kind of ongoing relationship with hope and the holets family.
she was shooting heroin while pregnant which can harm and even kill a baby. she didn't care about that baby nearly as much as she should have.
"When somebody asks for help, the person who hears is responsible"

@Ling Ling the mother was crystal meth the baby was dope
I was afraid that helping the addicted couple would end when the baby was born, but they continued to help them and they became sober. Wonderful story.
that's what made me happy the most, the fact they believed that the couple could be redeemed and get better. and they did help them! and I'm so happy for that

It is nice that the birthmom and dad has a chance to see her grow up and also for Hope to see them later in life if she wants. OMG such a wonderful story. Little baby Hope.
@Nikol S. Ervant Sobriety is the state of not being under the influence of any mind-altering substance. Similar is how "driving under the influence" may refer to alcohol or any other mind-altering substance. The psychiatric field definitely does not use the term "clean," because the opposite of that is dirty. "Junkie" is quite pejorative and dehumanizing too. Nice try at being condescending.
Thank you for saying sober instead of “clean”. We aren’t dirty - it’s actively using and we aren’t clean - we’re in recovery or sobriety.

@@minxymoo2325 see the thing is, not everyone believes in abortions. Every one's opinions differ and some people carry the guilt. In her case, the baby is healthy and fine and now has a happy family.

So I can respect her.id advise you do the same or get out of my comment thread. Then again your most recent comments are all complaining. So is that your personality trait?😹😹😹
@@minxymoo2325 you would rather her kill the baby?? As if thats not just as bad? You know what they say. The people who are for abortion are already born.

I know everyone’s praising the guy and he deserves it. But like, can we talk about his wife? Like she is such an Angel, to just accept that like “okay” without even thinking about it. Like their relationship is amazing and she obviously trusts him a lot and she’s just cute in general in appearance and in soul. They are such a blessed couple.
She is soooo sweet 🥰. He's so lucky.
so true, they're both literal angels.
Such a wonderful couple.
Thats what happy couples do. My sister in law came out of class (college) and her mom called and told her a friend's friend is losing her child due to drugs and if she want to adopt the baby and without hesitation she said "yes". She later went home told her husband they are adopting and he says "okay" lol. After the adoption of baby girl, two years after to be exact, the baby has a sibling, baby boy.... now adopted by my brother and sister in law. Its stressful but worth it. My niece and nephew are so adorable and amazing ❤.
@@Baybieangel209 There's a huge difference between asking and springing it on her. Welcoming a new baby is a big responsibility, and "happy couples" need to include each other in major life-changing decisions like this. Even if he knows his wife and knows that she'd be willing to adopt, he should have at least checked with her out of respect (and to hear any concerns) before making the offer, instead of agreeing to adopt and then TELLING her that he'd made the decision on behalf of both of them. I understand that in the moment he was likely very emotional and might not have thought that much, but making major decisions without your spouse's input not something that we should be glorifying by any means.
His wife is everything I want to be, she’s hopeful and positive, she took what any person would’ve panicked about or made worse, positive.

People like Crystal are almost always painted as evil, horrible people, but something must have happened to get her in that situation in the first place. Three years later, I hope the baby is doing well and is healthy and happy, and Crystal is able to spend more time with her daughter.
People have this idea that addiction is a simple choice. A choice that only bad people make. But truth be told, there are a million and one ways someone can fall into addiction and it can happen to anyone. It’s easy to believe it can never happen to you or anyone around you, but addiction is far more common then people realize. Cause some people also forget that drugs aren’t the only form of addiction either.
Yep, my sister was in a domestic violence situation. Her bf threw a ceramic dish at her and it almost cut her finger off. She had to have surgery and was prescribed an opioid for pain. She became addicted and her neighbor who was a dealer took advantage of her vulnerability. He basically had her kidnapped. He made her take drugs, drive him places in stolen cars and even had her new boyfriend killed after she had finally got away. She finally got away again almost a year after he killed her bf. She love fat but it was the only way for her to get away from him go good.

And to answer your question, yes! I have given a panhandler (not 'beggar') money knowing damn well what they were probably going to use it for but that is not my business. I do it because I care about their suffering and that they are a HUMAN being who deserves to be seen and cared about!!
@@pelviselvis3421 judging by your emotional response you lack clarity. I only made one comment prior to my original message. This is the real world. Not everyone can help themselves and you're the problem if you think it makes you a good person just because you gave them money knowingly they would use it for drugs. You say it's not your responsibility but the fact that you gave that person money makes it your business. If someone wants something they have to put in the work instead of just hoping someone would give them money for their addiction. I like to thank you for twisting my response because your entire comment was done out of emotion. What the OP said implies everyone has to help because those people are asking for help and you heard them. But that's not always the case hence why I said what I said.
Treat them like a medical patient and not a criminal, and this is the kind of thing that happens. This man did his job well.
Absolutely. The couple weren’t violent or trying to get away, they were just suffering, and this cop gave them what they truly needed at the moment: compassion. Not everything needs to be solved with a bullet, and I WISH that was the norm with cops instead of the exception.

We adopted our youngest son, whose birth mother was an addict. If you’re looking to adopt, don’t be afraid to take on one of these children, they may need a little extra help, but they will bring you joy. All of our children bring us happiness but he is the joy of our family, he’s the youngest, and he is surrounded and protected by all of us. He is successful and thriving, he doesn’t have any issues as far as behavior or substance abuse attraction. He’s actually a very humble, kind and funny guy, we love him so much.
Opioid addiction is very real. We must stop judging others and help instead
@C H it's not always a choice. People are prescribed medicines by the doctor that they trust, and become addicted. Eventually the pills aren't enough and they move on to stronger things....from the streets. Nobody wakes up and says "today im going to become an addict and spend the rest of my life in misery." 🙄 Even for those who did choose to use opiates the first time, are they not deserving of help just because they made a bad choice? Have you never made a bad decision? The wrong decision? Trust me, it only takes 1 or 2 times of using heroin to become addicted to it. That quick, a person finds themselves trying to get more bc they literally feel like their body is going to shut down if they don't. All because of the one bad decision. Again, nobody wakes up dreaming of becoming an addict and living that lifestyle. I sure hope that you or someone you care about never has a bad day and makes that bad decision. The way things are going in the world today with addiction, it is *very* possible and *very* likely that addiction will hit close to home for you, and I hope no one turns their nose up at your family/friend and says "you shouldn't have chosen to abuse opiates." That would really suck. 😬🤷
It's really, really, really easy to get addicted to pain pills.. been there, done that..
D D And the western governments . The amount of illegal drugs on the streetsdon't get into western countries through mules!
When you have a baby in your stomach and continue to love your shitty life, you deserve to be told the truth of what you’re doing. If you wanna call it judgement, then you’re very weak

It's just like reminding the mother that there is hope.
And coincidentally the mother's middle name is Hope.
And Rebecca's grandmother's name as well.
Lmfao you balled your eyes out?
Very touching that they are still helping the birth parents... And also that they included the mother's name as well
This is so touching. They didn't just save the baby but they saved a whole family.

Exactly but this bad ones still have to be held accountable, what an amazing world we'd live in if we only had cops like this
Facts this man is a great example of what we need
Hi zee We do have cops like this. They’re just hardly recognized.
@@hizee5515 The world would be even more amazing if no citizens broke laws and committed crimes.
For the couple that gave birth to Hope, I pray that they can live a meaningful life and just shine and grow and still be part of Hope’s life as well.
Selfless acts of love. Amazing. Wonderful. Perfect example to everyone. Thank You for sharing with us.
Thanks for sharing....seems cold according to Reddit. I think so too.
1969Vanessa G what do you mean seems cold?
1969Vanessa G Did you mean to write that?
@@brandymoore7191
Maybe!
1969Vanessa G I have no idea what that means or what you think is cold.
People just assume that all drug addicts and people like her are just bad but she’s just a lost souls who can’t get off these horrible chemicals, so if you see someone like this just know that they need help not punishment
its illegal for a reason
NewtslayerProductions yeah. Look at RDJ! He used to be an addict, and with the help of his amazing wife he turned his life around and did an amazing job as iron man. :)
Kate A. Even obama did drugs!
Anisa Farah Obama smoked weed, he didn’t do heroine and meth . Lmao
Martha Banks When I was a teenager I used drugs, I drank, I pretty much tried whatever was out there.” These are his exact words and thats what i stated i dont really know what but he said he did drugs lfmao get your facts straight
It is his purpose to be a policeman . You don’t find selfless , kindhearted loving police these days . He is truly a man of Christ .May God bless him and his family !
@Charlee Barlee is correct. In general, it is difficult to see any person or group acting selflessly when you watch the news. Unfortunately, the news is quite often the only place to find out what’s happening in the world around us, especially in a geographically large place, like the United States.Do you not believe that it’s possible that one or more good natured, selfless cop can be found within every city and county? The media can only show you a glimpse of what happens in the world around us, and for a variety of reasons, they prioritize, sensationalize, exaggerate, and sometimes completely lie about news that induces fear and creates the perception of a nation divided by race, political ideology, etc. I am not trying to say the man featured in this clip doesn’t deserve the praise and recognition he received, but to think that he is the only police to have done something like this, or to believe that selfless, kindhearted loving police don’t exist everywhere is a misperception that develops from depending on the media to paint the picture of how the world really is. Look up any city, any police department here on RUclips - surely you will find dozens of stories about police doing wonderful things,
They are everywhere. You have blinded yourself with implicit bias.
The news only presents an extremely small percent. I know more decent people who are officers like this guy than whose who aren’t. If more weren’t good people, we’d have a more obvious problem
@@silverstar4289 It's a fuckin miracle to the "woke".. bleh.
Si !
I wish I had neighbors like this officer and his beautiful family. Just going to bed at night and waking up the next morning would be made brighter (knowing) I was in close proximity to true goodness.
Awe, my mom named me Hope because she said I was the hope for her future because she was on drugs as well. She’s stayed clean since getting pregnant with me and I’m almost 21. She’s now a homeschool mom to my 3 little siblings and has been married to my step dad since I was 4. I love this story.
Beautiful
That’s So Amazing ❤️God Bless all of you!!
Hope Unknown ❤️
We need more Hope people
Hope Unknown I’m so proud of your mother
The world needs more people like him. Not just a responsible cop, he is a wonderful human being. The trust he has for his family, is so beautiful..
they’re genuinely good people, no politics, just hope.
except I bet 100% that this guy is probably Conservative and very Christian. Both things that the liberals are so hateful against. Democrats hate Christians and police officers
@@rihanajan9798 not true I don't know where your hearing this but I have a relative and a family friend that is in the law enforcement and he's a democratic voter also there Christians that means your wrong about that
This couple are amazing for helping the birth parents too.
Noone plans to be an addict.
I hope my son pulls thru it too.
I have the most admiration for them
This officer deserves a lot of credit but his wife??? Man! Well done. God bless you and your family...
What a marriage. They are absolutely on the same page.
Agreed, it's amazing
If everybody had a heart like this the world could be a better place.
Absolutely.
GOD BLESSS THIS POLICE OFFICER AND ALL THE GOOD HEARTED PEOPLE LIKE HIM.
Hello 2020 all the people like him. Sure his wife is a great human like him too :)
Inb4 the angry atheists come and wish cancer on you
I'm adopted. This cop's kindness brings me to tears. So much humanity. We need more cops like him. God bless him and his family. 🙏May Hope grow big and strong. Good cops like him make the world a better place.
Same here I cried with joy
I’m a 38 year old bloke, sat in bed blubbing my eyes out! Very well done to this man and women. 2 true heroes!
tim davies wtf is a bloke
Chahzy Verazzano it’s a term for man I think
@@evisfree9639 It's british slang for "dude" or "man".
C W I believe it’s actually an Aussie expression
I'm not a bloke (lol) but I cried my eyes out as well. This is a beautiful story.
Damn I wish my birth mother was like this, kept shooting up with me, I was born addicted and I was taken away by the state at 6 months. My birth mother still doesn’t realize that you can’t be an addict and a mother. 21 years later she’s back in jail doing the same thing.
Sarah Hudson I'm sorry to hear that. Looks like you turned out splendidly!
Sarah Hudson I am so sorry to hear that but You turned out amazing
You are drop. Dead pretty we share the same story remember we are survivors🙏🙏🙏🙏 stay strong
So sorry to hear that. I can’t imagine a world without my mom. God bless you!!!
Same here I was born addicted and my mom is back in jail
Both him and his wife are literal angels on Earth that found each other, and were meant for each other. They could do a lot of good in this world. So much love for them all ❤️
Could? They are already doing good!
Such a beautiful baby. I’m happy the officer came just in time to rescue her.
This guy is truly an angel. For him, I'd believe in Jesus and go to church.
Honestly, you should go with Jesus, it is very worth going with him. Though Jesus does promises tough times like trials and tribulations, you got to know that this life is only temporary and that the spiritual side is eternal and it would be wise to seek God for yourself. But you should seek him with all your heart. Sorry for the many words but I just wanted to make sure I tell you what you should know, also God is ready with open arms to receive you and any pain or sorrow or any mistake you are afflicted by God can heal you. Have a blessed day.
@@joeyvargas8818 i agree so much, jesus loves youuu❤️
@@samanthacaldera2 we are very blessed to have such a loving Creator.
Fun fact humans in heaven are actually higher than angles
Amen!
May God Always Look After This Family And Keep Them Safe.
🙏 Amen
I respect his wife for understanding, what a couple hats off
I would honestly have loved my husband to have walked in said that to me!
Some of us are just happiest with a baby in our arms 🤗
My Father was a police officer in Albuquerque, years ago. But I have a feeling that he was a monster. He was in our home……a monster. Good for this gentleman. He’s a hero and I applaud him.
My story exactly. My father was a Albuquerque Police Officer when I was born. But my dad was horrible and I have a feeling that he was fired. He passed about 5-6 years ago. Not one person has shed a tear, especially me, since his death. I still wish I could get the real story from APD about him.
Profound statement: " because I was the one hearing her."
This makes me want to be a better person...the person who hears is responsible.....
@@vidaapplebee5504, God YHWH bless and keep you.
I love the fact his wife was just like “Ok, let’s do it”
Thats a wife that has pure love to offer to her family
so pure.
Lol couple goals
Super excited! It was cute!
Perfect couple
“so why did a 27 year old cop-“
WHAT
27
WHAT
I know his so younge, good man.
He looks older than 27 I was taken aback when they said his age too...He looks at least 35. But also 4 kids by 27, he started young if the oldest was 4 he was 23 as a first time dad...you dont see many men now a days who are that young stick around let alone want even more that close together.
It's because he's balding.. if he shaved his head completely he would look 27
vianjelos he appears to be from a religious background. That’s probably a big factor
Yeah, he’s a very young man. It’s amazing that the wisdom and intelligence he has at this age is more than what people acquire in their lifetime. Great fella
Put in the right place at the right time,saving three lives.Absolutely beautiful.
I know most people will say we need more cops like this. But I say we need more humans to act like humans.
God Bless this officer. May this woman find herself and let this man's example be the fire that lights her up.
ashleywatson2007 Amen!!
she got help and is sober now! all she needed was support from people and got herself out of the horrible situation she was in. Shows just how much kindness can affect someones life.
This is what police should be. This is what a policeman's drive and personality should be. They do it to help. I wish they were all like this...
Agreed
@Jayla Ro yeah I know... I just would like the bad ones not to exist. Can you imagine that just last year police stopped me and wanted proof that my son in the stroller really was my son? You see... My son is mixed. They first wanted my and his ID. Ok. Why does he have a different family name?
Because he he has his father's family name, sir. Duh.
Then why does he not look like you at all and his name is foreign?
Ehm... The child is mixed, sir. Dad is African. Can't you see we both have Italian ID though?
Ok. So where is the dad?
At work. Sir. He is working.
Good. Do you have any family pictures on your phone where you are with the child and possibly his father.
I proceeded to show captain dumb all my family album. Included the pictures in the hospital with me giving birth. That one was the last. Yeah. Officer got a good shot of baby head coming right out of my vajayjay.
Captain dumb then got angry at me for showing him such graphic imagery during a control. I just answered I wanted to give concrete proof the child was mine and I was not trying to kidnap him and sell him to the Satanist church for sacrifices. (I was and fry at that point. Officers had been rude and did not allow me to pick up my son when he was crying so I kinda blew up and purposefully show him the picture of me birthing the child)
I got brought to the station and got a fine for "disrespecting the officer". I appealed that shit and ended up not having to pay anything because actually it was the officer who went too far with me, assuming I kidnapped my son and being rude about it. And then bringing me to the station for showing him a picture and making a snarky remark.
Still the officers face when he saw that picture is one of the funniest thing I have witnessed. He looked like he had just seen a ghost.
Actually most of them are like this but everyone is trying brianwash everyone into thinking every cop is bad
@@irenerandazzo4206 the fine once you proved it is out of order but honestly the checking if you're the mother or not shouldn't be seen as a negative, I'm a parent myself and if anything it makes me feel a little better for my sons safety knowing that police check things like that, sure it's frustrating if you're the parent but then to imagine someone did take your child and was caught because the police thought something was suspicious and looked into it, you would see them as a hero and your childs saviour, try to think about things objectively.
Jayla Ro Naw their not overshadowed by the bad ones.. it’s just what do you see in the world around you? Do you see the evil or do you see the good? It’s all just a choice really...
Geez that's a lot of children. I'd lose my mind. Big ups to them. They're stronger people than me.
I have 10! Half are grown now and I lost my mind years ago, but my husband lost his with me so I have wonderful company. I call it beautiful chaos
