Retired WWE wrestler Bill DeMott joins Trooper Steve On Patrol Keri Anne DeMott Foundation focus of conversation
ORLANDO, Fla. – You have seen him many times representing his family’s organization on News 6. What you may not know is the friendship and connection that I have with Bill DeMott and the foundation.
Bill DeMott may seem familiar to you as he is a retired WWE wrestler. But, unfortunately, that’s not the reason he does what he does today.
Making the right decisions and battling impaired driving has become the epicenter of the DeMott family. After losing Keri Anne DeMott to a repeat DUI offender, they created the Keri Anne DeMott Foundation in hopes of not only preventing things like this from happening again but inspiring change.
DeMott joined me in Results-1 on Tuesday as we caught up on the current state of the foundation and talked about their public Town Hall, which takes place Tuesday night in Orlando.
Watch the full discussion in the video player above.
