My sincere condolences to the entire family and friends of Brother Winston Bateman Knight! I first met Cpl. Knight as a freshman athlete while attending Alabama State University! Immediately he impacted my life to the man I am today! He was my Patrol Supervisor in Law Enforcement at Alabama State University Police Department on Third Shift patrol! He was a good person but a great friend! For over 30 years he was father figure and mentor to me! He will definitely be missed! May God continue to give continued strength and comfort to the entire family especially during this time. ( Bishop Frazier Executive Dignitary Details Police )
