•••
SDPD Officer Jonathan Matias DeGuzman (affectionately known as JD) was born in the Philippines on September 17, 1972. He and his family moved to the United States when he was 20 in search of the American dream.
On October 2000, he made a big step towards fulfilling that dream. He joined the San Diego Police Department as part of the 48th Academy. After graduation, he worked as a patrol officer in the Mid-City Division. This is one of the busiest and most diverse divisions in San Diego. While serving that community, JD was stabbed by a suspect during a traffic stop. He was awarded a Purple Heart for sustaining a life-threatening injury while on-duty.
In 2010, he joined the Gang Suppression Team (GST). JD also fulfilled a career goal by becoming a member of the SWAT team. He showed his persistence and determination after not making the team the first time he tried out.
During his duties as a GST officer, JD was involved in the investigation of a suspect who had been building improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and had set off bombs throughout San Diego. While trying to arrest the suspect, JD and the rest of his team were involved in a shoot-out with the suspect. The suspect was armed with a rifle, handgun and several bombs. For their dedication to duty and heroism, JD and GST were awarded the Meritorious Service medal.
JD, ever the humble person he is, hardly wore the medals he deserved. Instead, he proudly wore an American flag on his uniform. When asked why he doesn’t wear his medals, JD said he didn’t want to stand out.
On August 28, 2016, JD and his partner Wade Irwin were patrolling the southeast area of San Diego. While trying to conduct a pedestrian stop, they were met with gunfire. Officer Irwin sustained injuries to his neck, and later recovered. JD was hit on the torso just a few inches above his bulletproof vest. He passed away from his injuries.
JD is survived by his parents, his wife, Jane and two children, Jonathan Jr. and Amira. JD was very much involved in his community.

The "GS 24" workout of the day was created in memo

The "GS 24" workout of the day was created in memory of fallen Officer Jonathan “JD” Matias De Guzman.

"JD” was with the San Diego Police Department, a 16-year veteran of the force. He was shot and killed on July 28, 2016 while he and his partner, Officer Wade Irwin, were on duty in San Diego’s Southcrest community. "JD" is survived by his wife and two kids.

"He was a man of courage, strength, dedication, and service to the community and his fellow officers."

Let's join in the memory of “JD” by participating in this memorial WOD. @joinsdpdnow thank you for the share!

Currently, there are 22,217 names engraved on the walls of the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial. A total of 1,627 law enforcement officers died in the line of duty during the past 10 years, an average of one death every 54 hours or 163 per year. There were 135 law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty in 2019.
