MPO Brian T. Gibson

This years DC-C.O.P.S. Classic Golf Tournament is dedicated to MPO Brian T. Gibson.  On February 5, 1997, at 3 am, Officer Brian T. Gibson, 27 was on duty and in full uniform, when he was ambushed and shot to death while sitting in his marked patrol car at a traffic light outside the IBEX Nightclub at Georgia and Missouri Avenues, NW.  Within three minutes after the shots were fired, members of the Fourth District apprehended Marthell Nathaniel Dean, who had been escorted from the IBEX club by an off-duty officer just prior to the shooting.  Dean was found guilty of First Degree Murder and is currently serving a life sentence without the possibility of parole.

The DC-C.O.P.S. Classic Golf Tournament relies heavily on volunteers and community support during our yearly golfing event.  If you do not play golf but would like to volunteer to assist with the tournament on the day of the event, please click on the Contact Us page and contact Joe Crespo or Greg Alemian.
