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..

Coming Back Soon

When looking at the stats for this blog I was amazed that there have been readers from different countries.  I've received messages asking if, and when, I would be posting again?  I'm currently working on a post and it should be up in the next day or two.


Last year my better half decided to return to college and earn a degree.  When asked, her professors agreed to my tutoring her periodically so needless to say having to become familiar with the material covered in a full schedule of classes has been time consuming.  When it came to American History, I found myself helping two additional students periodically.  This semester there has been only one class so I am going to try to get back into writing regularly again.  Now that former President Trump has been indicted by the Manhattan District Attorney I have a feeling that there may be a few topics to write about.


Thanks for your support and patience.
