40 Questions People Asked When This Former Major Crimes Detective Promised To Answer Them

Or become President of the US....

To be fair it's not hard to be smarter than those who have been leading the US. 🤷‍♀️ And yes, I'm American.

All police officers need this attitude. This one of our own bs is a slide into the depths of corruption

I was nearby when the Universal Crime Reporting system was implemented. The UCRs were virtually designed to give control of the crime stats to the local police, who had an inherent conflict of interest.

Great answer!

This dude's kids won't be able to get away with anything will they? 😂

"Nobody drinks like a cop." I've observed for decades and found this to be true.

"Known to the FBI" does not seem like a crazy idea

Sometimes, I just want to cry.

Bull might have been chasing you because you were running. Some of them are just really bigs dogs. Very playful but still as dangerous as hell.

While I get what they're coming from, the person asking the question probably doesn’t know the depths and devastation that uncontrolled gambling can lead to.

Children need to know that adults have set these boundaries, even if they then transgress them. This shows my age, but the example that brought it home to me is that there is a HUGE difference between a school banning smoking behind the bike sheds but knowing that there are kids sneaking out there because it is impossible to stop, and the school allowing smoking behind the bike sheds and the teachers joining them. The former and latter feel very, very different to the pupils of that school, even if the amount of smoking going on is the same.

I know from my mom’s family in semi-rural and small town South Carolina, there were always stories about child rapes, other child abuse, missing kids, etc. Very few of these were ever brought to justice.. in fact, prior to the sixties, crimes against children were kept pretty quiet

that...escalated at an alarming rate.

Maybe the dog was @ddicted? /s 🙄

0% i find that incredibly hard to believe. Even the littlest most rinky d**k towns in my area have at least a few unsolved murders.

Again, this guy's kids are going to have trouble pulling anything over on him. I was once able to convince my dad he hadn't seen me skipping school, when it WAS me that he drove past. 😂 I suspect this father would know I was lying.

I think this probably happens more than we want to know. Frankly I'd be OK if my cats ate my body when they were starving. 🤷‍♀️

I recommend the read Murderland. It talks about how the,dad and copper contamination in the PNW led to the rise in the number of serial killers.

This technique is used in sales and is useful in everyday life too - basically, whoever breaks the silence first, loses. If you ask someone a question you know they're not going to like ie. Are you cheating?, ask the question then SHUT THE F*CK UP. Do not fill the silence by babbling on, just stay quiet and keep looking straight at them; few people can resist speaking under those circumstances so just let them speak & dig their own grave

I would be in favor of capital punishment for narcotrafficers, child ab.u.sers, serial kil1ers and other heavy crimes.

Working for the police absolutely ruined cop shows for me, and I was only civilian staff. Apart from 'The thin blue line' with Rowan Atkinson 😂

WTF is a bearcat?!?!? Also, the nuances required in policing really, really need a human. Literally much of what makes us human and not robots is tied up in good coppering.

My dad (the retired crime detective) abhors any crime novels and movies because of their inaccuracies.buuuut there is one film standing out he recommends watching: it shows the immense pressure (time and psychological) the investigators are under: "Es geschah am helllichten Tag" ("It happened on broad daylight) . The black and white thriller from 1958 --> (German version) https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x9it5je ////And With English subtitles: https://m.ok.ru/video/1883219954356

🤣🤣🤣 I like this answer.

D-r-u-g related.

"Holidays are always domestic disturbance time." That is one of the saddest things I have ever read.

It's 30 years since I did my police training and tape-recording was just being introduced. TV interviews still bug me. They don't make the right introductions for the tape/video (eg never give the date); at the end they might say "interview terminated" but do t give the required date and time and never sign the tapes and put them in evidence bags. A small thing but it annoys me no end!

My brother was set on becoming a cop from about the time he was 16. He did a bachelor of criminology and then applied straight after. He did the testing and was on to the interview stage where he was asked 'why do you want to become a police officer?' and he couldn't answer it. He decided not to go further, though he did apply for the federal police after. He realised he wanted to be more on the making of laws side, so did a masters of politics and policy making. Afterwards he applied for a lot of graduate positions in that field (including ASIO) but never got anywhere so is working as a manager of a Salvation Army op shop.

How would dui checkpoints be unconstitutional?

If a child predator tried to off themselves just prior to arrest and I was a cop I have to say my reflexes that day would be a shade poorer.

I watch a lot of body cam shows/videos (watching one now actually) and SO many people talk themselves in to an arrest when really the cop was just going to write them a ticket and send them on their way. Or they flee from a traffic stop and end up in a car chase, which is usually a felony - because their license is suspended or something stupid that would have simply been a ticket. 🙄

Blaming the crowds for cuffing and stuffing. Absolutely zero doubt every single one of his suspects are guilty. This guy is presenting a good front as a well reasoned, completely responsible, LEO, but the red flags abound.

If you interact with them and hear them interact with others you can definitely tell that they get the very middle to lower end of the bell curve overall. While making eye contact at the scene of an accident I literally pointed at my car to a cop and said that's my car. He asked for some more information then asked which ones your car. ... This is not an exceptional exchange. Watch body cam videos. It's friggin scary how dumb MANY leos are.

I can understand that. After doing law as a trainee and having a law degree, I hate watching trials on TV!
