About Me

My photo
I retired after completing 38 years as a law enforcement officer in the State of Florida. I began my law enforcement career with the City of Miami, where I served for nearly 27 years before serving with a state agency for 11 1/2 years (part of that time as Interim Inspector General). During my career with Miami I worked in uniform patrol, the detective bureau, and the 911 center. I was also a member of the first law enforcement crew to respond to New York City on September 11, 2001. From January 2007 to April 2011 I also served as a commissioner on the state commission that governs the certification of law enforcement, correctional and probation officers in the state. I am a Past President of the Florida State Lodge Fraternal Order of Police (President 2004-2006); I was an employee representative with Miami FOP Lodge #20 for almost 21 years (6 years serving at the Chief Steward). I have worked on legislative issues at all levels, worked on political screening committees. I’m a past member of the Dade County Republican Executive Committee, and have been an advisor/ law enforcement liaison for a presidential candidate..

No, I haven't Quit, I'm back!

I know it's been awhile since my last posting (nearly three months), I'm drafting a new post and it should be up in the next day or so.

Since it's been so long this new post will be a bit of a "Pot Luck", I thought I'd cover a couple of different thoughts instead of my usual single topic post.

As always, I've appreciated the feedback and the suggestions for topics. The only reason I hadn't taken the challenge to write about the suggestions is I didn't feel I would be able to devote the time to do it justice.

I hope everyone's first quarter of the year has been a positive and productive one. In the words of Douglas MacArthur "I shall return", or the Governor of California "I'll be back" (in a day or two).
