The Oklahoma police department thanks Jelly Roll for honoring a fallen officer at his recent concert. Edmond police’s Sgt. C.J. Nelson killed in motorcycle accident in Oklahoma City. The truck driver who hit Nelson was charged with first-degree manslaughter. Currently, the case is ongoing in court.
Last night at the Jelly Roll concert in OKC, he noticed a fan in the crowd wearing one of our CJ Nelson memorial t-shirts. Hey Jelly, if you can send us an address, we’d like to send you a shirt! Thanks for the love! @JellyRoll615 pic.twitter.com/sXEcJlP24i

Nelson, 38, died while on patrol outside the city limits. He is the first Edmond police officer to die in the line of duty. During his show, the singer points out someone in the crowd wearing a memorial shirt for Nelson.
The shirt was made by a member of the Edmond Police Department, they hope to get Jellyroll one for him to wear. Thoughts go out to Sgt. C.J. Nelson’s famly and friends.
