This week, the ODMP website rolled out several new features in order to maintain a respectful atmosphere within our Memorial & Reflection pages.

Being an ODMP subscriber has always provided our supporters with specific benefits by enabling them to:
  • Manage subscriptions to ODMP's LODD notices, No Parole notices, EOW report, monthly newsletter, and more
  • Add fallen officers and K9s to a personal "My Heroes" page for quick access to their Memorials
  • Save a customized Reflections signature and go through a quicker Reflections review process

New features will also enable subscribers to:

  • View, edit, or delete past Reflections left for any officer
  • See their "My Heroes" page directly on the main ODMP homepage
The main ODMP homepage will feature a "My Heroes" section for all logged-in subscribers

Due to a noticeable increase in abuse by anti-police visitors, however, we've implemented several new steps to prevent negative and hateful messages from being posted as Reflections on Memorial pages or being mailed to agencies following line of duty deaths.

The most significant change will be a requirement to be logged in to view agency contact information or to leave an immediate Reflection. Visitors who would prefer not to create an account, but still wish to leave a Reflection, will have to go through a separate, one-time email verification process before Reflections are reviewed and posted to memorials.

Users can manage their profiles by clicking on "My Account" in the ODMP top-level menu bar

We encourage all our supporters to subscribe to ODMP in order to have access to the full array of features on our site, and we're confident that these new steps will enable us to maintain ODMP's Memorial & Reflection pages with a more respectful atmosphere and to prevent negative messages from being sent to agencies who have lost officers to line of duty deaths.
