The officer is expected to make a full recovery thanks to Jamal Rutledge and the other officers. Hopefully, this experience will help change this young mans life for the better! The Fort Lauderdale Police Department is honoring a juvenile offender who helped to save the life of the officer who was booking him into jail. Jamal Rutledge, 17, and three officers will be recognized Jan. 21 at a city commission meeting for their actions to assist Officer Franklin Foulks.... Suddenly, booking officer Foulks, 49, collapsed to the floor. Sitting nearby, Rutledge began kicking the security fence and yelling to alert other officers that their colleague was in distress. The effort worked. The Sun-Sentinel reported that Sgt. Todd Bunin removed Foulkes police gear and cut off his shirt, while Officer Robert Norvis performed CPR and Officer Raymond Ketchmark used a defibrillator in an effort to restart Foulks heart.
