Description

My stories reflect on events where citizens were in life threatening situations after a serious high speed car crash, trying to survive the "Blizzard of 1978", committing a crime against our community and even the commission of a murder to laughable stories about police officers being bribed by a mayor, and a lady which needed some under clothing, college girls only dressed in their birthday suits and a gentleman who was drinking out of a cell block toilet. These stories are meant to bring the reader into the life of a police officer and what they face on a daily basis. My life completely changed after joining the world of law enforcement having the opportunity to save several people lives. That satisfaction has stayed with to this day.
