BREVARD COUNTY, FLORIDA (WFTV) – Trying to ignore negative messages about law enforcement is a daily battle for spouses of officers.

Channel 9 sat down Monday with two wives in Brevard County who want the public to know their husbands are committed to protecting the community, and have families they want to come home to each night.

Crystal Behringer started a group on social media to help spouses cope with the fears that she said have become more serious than ever.

Behringer and Tina Gay said they rely heavily on their faith. “As soon as he walks out the door, I say an extra prayer,” said Behringer. “Whatever happens to them, happens to us.”

“You really don’t know if they’re going to come back,” said Gay.
