A pair of Brooklyn officers who were slain in the line of duty were remembered for their service at a memorial mass on Monday, where family members, locals and politicians alike paid their respects to the fallen heroes seven years after their lives were taken. 

Detectives Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos were killed on the afternoon of Dec. 20, 2014, when they were shot four times while sitting in their patrol car at the intersection of Myrtle and Tompkins avenues in Bedford-Stuyvesant by Ismaaiyl Brinsley.
