When I first started my career in law enforcement, my mom didn't like to hear the stories about foot pursuits through the yards chasing armed suspects, the homicide scenes I had been too, or the violence that plagued my city. What she enjoy were the stories about the funny and sometimes crazy things that would happen to me during the course of a shift. She encouraged me to write those stories down and after 26-years, here they are, the mostly true stories of my life on the streets.
