"Fatta, 33, was a 9-year veteran at the sheriff's office. He had a degree in criminal justice, three years in the military as a security officer, a year as an armed security guard before being hired by Broward in 1995.
"He loved his job," said Trenner Tompkins, who lived next door to Fatta for three years in Pompano Beach. "It was what he lived for, what he breathed."
