Book Description
These short stories are actual events in which I was personally involved. They occurred between 1982 and 1995 while I was serving as a police officer and detective in the bomb and arson unit, homicide unit, and burglary and auto theft units with KCPD. These incidents are taken from my memory of the events as they took place. They are not, in any way, meant to hurt or cause discredit to anyone or anyplace described or resembled in these stories. I wish to make it known that my personal comments in each story may be a little on the redneck side, but they are not meant to be racist or sexist, but humorous. Even though most police officers’ humor is sometimes considered sick and different from that of other people, we use this humor as a tool to handle the many mental stresses we deal with each day.

Cop in the Hood
Author: Peter Moskos
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 1400832268
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
When Harvard-trained sociologist Peter Moskos left the classroom to become a cop in Baltimore's Eastern District, he was thrust deep into police culture and the ways of the street--the nerve-rattling patrols, the thriving drug corners, and a world of poverty and violence that outsiders never see. In Cop in the Hood, Moskos reveals the truths he learned on the midnight shift. Through Moskos's eyes, we see police academy graduates unprepared for the realities of the street, success measured by number of arrests, and the ultimate failure of the war on drugs. In addition to telling an explosive insider's story of what it is really like to be a police officer, he makes a passionate argument for drug legalization as the only realistic way to end drug violence--and let cops once again protect and serve. In a new afterword, Moskos describes the many benefits of foot patrol--or, as he calls it, "policing green."

Category : History

Joy Harris-Smith, Vince Bantu, Marcia Clarke, Valerie Landfair, Antipas Harris, Luke Powery, Efrem Smith, Donyelle McCray, Jamal-Dominique Hopkins.
