Dismiss By Jim Pilmer Normal text size Advertisement Recently I attended a graduation ceremony at the Victoria Police Academy. It was interesting to cast an eye over the list of previous occupations of the 22 men and women who passed out of the Academy that day. Mechanical fitter, chemical transfer safety specialist, systems engineer and child and family case manager were among the former occupations listed in the graduation booklet. The average age was around 30. A matter of trust: Graduating recruits at the Victoria Police Academy chapel.

Date Time Ceremony marks one year anniversary Victoria Police will today pause and pay tribute to four fallen colleagues at a ceremony to mark the first anniversary since the officers were tragically killed in a road incident on Melbourne’s Eastern Freeway. Families, friends and colleagues will come together at the Victoria Police Academy chapel to remember the lives of Leading Senior Constable Lynette Taylor, Senior Constable Kevin King, Constable Josh Prestney and Constable Glen Humphris who were killed in the line of duty on 22 April 2020. The service will include the laying of four wreaths for each police officer killed and a one-minute silence.
On this day one year ago, their worlds fell apart. “The memory of how that night unfolded is as clear and as painful as if it happened yesterday,” recall the family of Constable Josh Prestney, killed alongside three of his Victoria Police colleagues on Melbourne’s Eastern Freeway. Constable Josh Prestney with his mother, Belinda. “As hard it was to lose Josh, harder still has been learning to live without him. We will never get used to this, get over this or move on from this.” Their beloved son, brother and partner left for work that night and never returned, as did new police graduate Constable Glen Humphris.
