May is recognized in Florida as Law Enforcement Appreciation Month, and with recent local celebrations, we’re taking a moment to honor those who serve. In this episode, I am joined by Sergeant at Arms Edson Abbott and Omar Ayala, two dedicated officers raised in Miami’s District 5. We discuss their personal journeys, what inspired them to join law enforcement, and their efforts to encourage local youth. They also shed light on the critical role Sergeants at Arms play in supporting elected officials and why that relationship matters. Most importantly, we reflect on the deep sense of camaraderie that exists within law enforcement—how that shared bond, rooted in mutual respect and support, helps officers serve with integrity and strength.
