FULL REMARKS: NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch Honors Fallen Officer Didarul Islam At His Funeral

Published | Video Starts at 04:36

12 hour tours in a busy precinct, extra shifts, paid details. Last Sunday, he was out at the Dominican Day Parade working more than a full tour. And On Monday, the day that he was killed, he picked up work at 345 Park Avenue to bring home just a little more. Because that's who he was. He didn't look for an easier way. He just showed up and he did the work. There's a quiet dignity to that. A quiet dignity. (04:36–04:44)
