A photo of Austin Mayor Steve Adler at Austin Police Department Senior Officer Anthony Martin's service with his eyes closed has captured attention with some saying Adler was sleeping.
Austin police officer Tony Martin was honored by the community on Monday, "If you're going to defund and destroy a police department as their mayor then attend a highly respected officer's funeral, perhaps do not continue to disrespect that officer's family, friends, and other officers by falling asleep.
""I want to express my deepest apologies to the family of Officer Martin. Officer Martin died 10 days ago and will forever be honored as a hero. This moment should be about him and his family, including his two daughters whose words today pierced my heart as a father. I hold Officer Martin in the highest regard. May his memory be a blessing to his family, and to the city he served."
