Roadside Memorial
On Nov. 30, 2011, a bouquet of flowers along Oregon 11, just north of Pendleton, Ore., marks the spot where correctional officer Buddy Ray Herron was stabbed multiple times late Monday when he stopped to help what he thought was a stranded motorist. He later died in a Pendleton hospital. A 22-year-old Multnomah County man has been charged in his death. (AP Photo/RICHARD COCKLE - The Oregonian)
