There is more heartbreak for the family of a Doraville police officer who was killed by a suspected drunk driver.
Shane Wilson's family has learned his name will not go on a state public safety memorial dedicated to fallen police officers.
The deceased detective's wife, Katy Wilson tells Channel 2 Action News the decision is disrespectful to all police officers.
"I'm offended. I don't understand it. I don't see how people could be that heartless," said Wilson.
His stepfather and mother, Jim and Gayle Hanson, both retired DeKalb officers, are devastated as well.
"The support is wonderful we've been getting and when you feel like you've been shut out of that, it's disturbing," Gayle Hanson said.
His name will go on the national one.
The director of the Georgia Public Safety Training Center says that the criteria for a fallen police officer's name to be put on the national memorial is somebody that was killed on duty.
He said for the Georgia memorial it's somebody killed in the line of duty.
"I don't know how you can draw a line that fine," Jim Hanson said.
A suspected drunk driver going the wrong way down the road killed Wilson in November as he was driving on Interstate 20 responding to a call. Doraville police said Wilson was the on-call detective called in from home to go to a home invasion.
"There's not an officer out there that doubts that if they get in that car and leave their home on a call out. They don't doubt that they're in the line of duty," said Gayle Hanson.
