Kenneth P. Wilson, 39, a highly decorated Albany city dedetective and homocide investigator, was killed in a car accident on Wedneday, April 26, 2006.
Wilcox was respected among many of the department's rank and file for his ability to break open stalled investigations, especially difficult homicides. He was sworn in on Jan. 15, 1988, and worked as a patrol officer until joining the detective ranks in 1993. That same year, he received a life-saving medal and a key to the city for saving the life of an 8-month-old baby in a house fire in the city's South End. His other awards include being named state Arson Investigator of the Year, and Kiwanis Police Officer of the Year.
