We wish the Correctional Peace Officers National Honor Guard Team safe travels as they attend the services of Fallen Correctional Officer Jovian Motley.

The 27-year-old officer lost his life in the line of duty on November 13, 2023, while serving at the Wainwright Unit in Houston County, Texas. Motley joined the agency in October 2022.

“Officer Motley was a hero who tragically died while protecting his fellow officers and the public,” TDCJ Executive Director Bryan Collier said. “His courage and dedication will forever be remembered. We are praying for his family, friends and co-workers during this difficult time.”

CPOF will be there for the family and department of Correctional Officer Motley and continue to keep them in our thoughts and our prayers.
