In 2005, an Officer Saved Him From the Golden Gate Bridge. A Decade Later, They Met Again.
I came across these photos and the story behind them is just incredibly powerful. Back in 2005, Kevin Berthia went to the Golden Gate Bridge, planning to end his life. He was there, right on the edge, when Officer Kevin Briggs started talking to him. They talked for 92 minutes, right there on the bridge. And in the end, Officer Briggs convinced Kevin to step back.
It's truly amazing to think about the impact those minutes had. But what really gets me is the second picture. Ten years later, they met again, at the very same bridge. This time, they're both smiling, laughing even, standing side-by-side. Kevin is even wearing a "Be The Voice #StopSuicide" shirt. It's such a powerful full-circle moment.
