Jared Bridegan’s widow honored with Back the Blue award for ‘Bexley Boxes’

Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier presented a Back the Blue award to Kirsten Bridegan and members of the Bridegan Foundation for its Bexley Box initiative on Thursday. For more than two years, the daughter and widow of Jared Bridegan, the man who was ambushed and murdered in Jacksonville Beach in February 2022, have been turning a tragic experience into a beautiful act of kindness aimed at helping children who are in the middle of crime scenes or investigations.
