Biden visited him in the hospitalHOUSTON – Newly released photographs show now-President Joe Biden quietly visited an injured Houston police officer in the hospital a little more than a year ago. Officer Taylor Roccaforte was shot three times while pursuing a robbery suspect shortly after the Democratic debate in Houston in 2019. “It was very unexpected and it was special to me,” Taylor Roccaforte told KPRC 2 on Wednesday. Samuel Roccaforte, Taylor’s father and a fellow HPD officer, said Biden didn’t want any press at the hospital. “It was really a nice time for us to see him there and was very calming for my son,” Samuel Roccaforte said.
