Friends say Emenheiser, 43, became a father at a young age, graduated from York College and served briefly in the Secret Service.
He loves to exercise and once posted photos of himself in the gym with Hulk Hogan while on vacation in Clairewater, Florida. According to a friend, the two men logged in at the gym together for nearly 10,000 hours during a 24-year friendship.
“Isaiah is still the hardest-working man I’ve ever seen. His role as a police community, and as a detective, helped to make him grow up and love this place more safely for everyone.”
Kenneth Kopp said Emenheiser had a lot of close calls as a policeman and was given a tattoo of the department’s badge, which died in office in 2008.
After approaching the phone, he called Science Popularization.
“He would say, ‘The boss is not me, I’m fine,’ I’d say, ‘Thank God,” Koop said.
Kep said Emenheiser became like a son after Emenheiser began supporting his floor contracting business for his young family during college.
Kopp said Emenheiser is proficient in renovating homes and dreams of opening his own gym complex. Emenheiser, he said, is a perfectionist, asked a lot of questions about how to do a project and always had ideas about how to do it better.
Kopp said Emenheiser “will take off his shirt for anyone,” Kopp said, recalling how Emenheiser and his family helped Kopp fight cancer several years ago.
“I pray for them and let the Lord bring me back to Isaiah because He is special to me,” said Cop.
BeckerAt 39, who served in the department for 16 years, he was a star athlete in football, baseball and wrestling when he returned to high school in his hometown of Spring Grove.
“Know Cody His former wrestling coach said in a statement on social media:
A high school football feat remains legendary: Becker Chad Henne intercepted his pass from the quarterback in the NFL and returned it for a touchdown.
But he is most accomplished in wrestling.
Becker Continued to wrestle at Millersville University and even participated in the 2007 NCAA Level 1 wrestling competition.
Becker Attorney Andy Ziegler said he likes being a policeman Cody.
“He likes to be able to help people. I mean, the biggest thing for him is that he knows he’s playing a role and he knows he’s helping people.”
Becker He said, it’s also the best person you’ve ever had.
BakerAt the age of 53, he began his career with the Philadelphia Police Department in 2001 and moved to the Northern York County Regional Department in 2004.
“It counts as a retirement day,” he laughed on last year’s computer forensics podcast.
On the troops, he started out as a “street officer” and then became a computer forensics investigation expert, at least in part because of his ability to office hardware.
“I’ve always loved computers, and that’s where everyone’s story begins,” he told the podcast host. “I’m a person who sets up a Wi-Fi password and call when they have printer issues Baker In, “So I’ll walk into the street to solve their printer problems and that’s where it all begins.”
He recalled realizing that he would need training to become a computer forensics investigation expert in 2007, after he got stuck with district attorneys in hot water to understand how he copied evidence from a cleaned computer.
Despite starting this humble beginning, he eventually became skilled enough to serve as a lecturer at the International Association of Computer Investigation Experts.
Baker Very high – at least 6’4′ – towering on his active Boy Scouts unit. He loves hunting and fishing: “It’s so nice to me to have anything outdoors,” he said on the podcast.
