Erie's Joe Kress decided on a career in law enforcement after his brother was killed in 1975.

Greg Kress was killed on his honeymoon in New Orleans.

An attempted robbery for drug money went terribly wrong.

Joe Kress spent 26 years on the Erie Police Department.

After he retired from the force, Kress developed a nine-point plan on the dangers of drug use.

His goal is to get the message out in local school districts.

Kress told Erie News Now, "only one school in the tri-county area is considering his program."

You can learn more about his program by calling 814-460-8447.
