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..

Brief update

Back in December I posted that I’d be back soon, as soon as I dealt with some personal/ family issues.  I recently had someone ask if I would be posting again anytime soon.

Those issues that I referenced in my December post was that my partner/ better half had suffered a medical issue requiring surgery and physical therapy.

She is progressing well and has reached a point that she wants me to start doing some of my own things again, some of the things I enjoy (like writing).  As a result I’ve begun paying more attention to current events and subjects that I’m interested in writing about.  I have begun drafting some ideas and should have an article up soon.
