Produktbeschreibung
Relaxed conversations with friendly neighbors interrupted by senseless violence Patrolling the silent night streets-then suddenly, the thrill of the chase Boredom, instantly interrupted by massive adrenalin dumps Needing to remind yourself that most people are good while you interact daily with criminals and people of questionable character in dire and surreal situations "...He knew why I was there and admitted that things got a little out of hand. When I asked him why his shirt had blood on it, his answer astonished me. His ex-my complainant-had stabbed him in the chest with a buck knife!" She conveniently left out that 'incriminating fact' when she told me what happened. When people find out that you were a cop, they want to hear some good stories. These are some of mine. A hard-working veteran Dallas street cop vividly recounts 100 actual events he experienced during his career: 1990-2016. He had no idea what he was getting into.
Autorenporträt
Author born in a Chicago suburb. Good parents & upbringing, lived in just one house from baby to adult. Worked over 3 years in a factory out of High School, then quit and joined the U.S. Marines as a Reservist. I completed my U.S.M.C. enlistment as an Infantryman. Returned 6 months later and attended community college, University of Alaska in Juneau, and graduated from the University of Illinois with a degree in Management. First brief career was as a stockbroker. Thirsted for excitement and adventure and moved to Texas where I knew not one soul to begin my career as a Dallas Police Officer, retiring 26 years later in 2016. My career goal came early when I was still a rookie in training when I made a concerted effort to keep and write down interesting police stories for eventual publication upon retirement.
