American lifestyle brand Shield Republic will run 'Hold the Line' campaign for Deputy Sheriff James Blair of Simpson County
SMITHFIELD, N.C. - ncarol.com -- After falling in the line of duty last weekend, a 77-year-old sheriff's deputy in Mississippi will be honored with an apparel fundraiser for his family from Shield Republic Charities.
The American lifestyle brand has launched a "Hold the Line" campaign in honor of Deputy Sheriff James Blair of the Simpson County Sheriff's Office. Deputy Sheriff Blair lost his life when he was transporting an inmate to the Region 8 mental health facility in Mendenhall, Mississippi the afternoon of Friday, June 12. The suspect, Joaquin Blackwell, shot Deputy Blair dead before making his escape. After a 24-hour manhunt, Blackwell was captured and taken into custody. He has been charged with capital murder of a peace officer.
The beloved former crossing guard was delaying retirement so he and his wife could care for his three grandchildren, whose mother had died. In addition to his work transporting prisoners to Region 8 and the local hospital, the lifelong first responder had also served as a school resource officer and a paramedic.

The "Hold the Line" fundraiser for Deputy Sheriff Blair will feature the sale of special apparel including t-shirts, long-sleeved shirts, hoodies, ladies' tank tops and decals, with net proceeds to be donated to Deputy Sheriff Blair's family.

"Today we salute this hero for laying down his life to serve and protect. Our Hold the Line campaign in his honor is a tribute to his incredible service and his sacrifice."
