Cops and Robbers Patrick J Proudler

A law enforcement officer's thirty-year professional journey is recounted through his lectures to recruits attending the police academy. Commentaries on the business of policing intertwine with colorful accounts of investigations and assignments. Sketches portraying his role as a patrol officer, detective, homicide cop, internal affairs investigator, and police academy training coordinator richly depict the variety of positions afforded to a career police officer. The lecture series is both educational and compelling. This easy-to-read book will engage both the civilian and sworn communities. The chronicles are inspired by actual events infused with the personal and thoughtful insight of the city police detective who lived them.
