Book Synopsis Life Behind the Badge by : Doug Driver
Download or read book Life Behind the Badge written by Doug Driver and published by . This book was released on 2002-05 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life Behind the Badge is the real story behind law enforcement, written by a veteran police officer. Although similar to the life of a cop, this story has all the excitement of the chases and takedowns that Tinseltown emphasizes. Sergeant Doug Driver also shows you the struggle to be a cop in today's world of lawsuits, political correctness, and public scrutiny. The private life of a public servant can be hard. It's easier to take a criminal off the streets than it is to keep a marriage together. Harsh hours, low pay, stress, and the trauma of seeing the cold hard truths of life take their toll. But every day, in every town in America, men and women put on the badge and sacrifice a part of themselves in order to serve Justice. This is the story of one man's Life Behind the Badge.

Download or read book A Cop's Life written by Randy Sutton and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2007-04-01 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After September 11, 2001 Las Vegas Police Sergeant Randy Sutton began soliciting writing from law enforcement officers-his goal being to bridge the gap between the police and those they serve, with a book that offers a broad and thoughtful look at the many facets of police life. Hundreds of active and former officers responded from all over the United States: men and women from big cities and small towns, some who had written professionally, but most for the first time. Sutton culled the selections into five categories: The Beat, Line of Duty, War Stories, Officer Down, and Ground Zero. The result is True Blue, a collection of funny, charming, exciting, haunting stories about murder investigations, missing children, bungling burglars, car chases, lonely and desperate shut-ins, routine traffic stops, officers killed in the line of duty, and the life-changing events of September 11. Here, officers reveal their emotions-fear and pride, joy and disgust, shame and love-as they recount the defining moments of their careers. In these stories, the heart and soul behind the badge shines through in unexpected ways. True Blue will change the way we think about the deeply human realm of police service.
Download or read book Police Women written by Sandra K. Wells and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2005-09-30 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often said that a woman must do a job twice as well as a man in order to get half the credit. This is particularly true of women in law enforcement. Women have been involved in various forms of policing for the last 100 years, but it wasn't until the Equal Employment Act of 1970 that women could move from the job of meter maids to patrol and detective work. Yet less than 1% of all top-level cops are women, and there remain significant obstacles in the career paths of women in the force. This book looks at the history of women police officers and provides first-hand accounts of women at every level, including those who drop out. It addresses discrimination, competition, lack of mentoring, differential treatment and sexual harrassment, examining what issues play into the decision to stick it out or leave that many policewomen face. It also considers the family issues these women return home to at the end of the day. It is often said that a woman must do a job twice as well as a man in order to get half the credit.

It looks at what plays into the decision to stick it out or leave that many policewomen face. It also considers the family issues these women return home to at the end of the day. Unlike other treatments of the subject, Alt and Wells show how women have changed police work into a more community-oriented model of policing, reduced police violence, served as a strong force to promote a more effective response to domestic violence within police departments, and helped with community-police relations. With a combination of first-hand accounts, careful research, and lively analysis, the authors are able to convey the actual experiences of women who have made their careers behind the shield.

Book Synopsis BLUE LIVES MATTER: The Heart Behind the Badge by : Brian P. Whiddon
Download or read book BLUE LIVES MATTER: The Heart Behind the Badge written by Brian P. Whiddon and published by BookLocker.com. This book was released on 2020-09-11 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A violent war is being waged against cops in America. A common strategy in warfare is to de-humanize the enemy. And, our liberal media is pushing that narrative on an hourly basis. The fact is the majority of cops are good people, with families, ambitions, mortgages, health issues, feelings, opinions and, most importantly, SELFLESS COURAGE. Brian Whiddon spent 15 years as a law enforcement officer. In these pages, he gives readers a rare look into the humanity of being a cop on the street. Car chases, fights, arrests, rapes, shootings, deaths – they are all in here. But, Brian takes you deeper than that. In Blue Lives Matter, you’ll feel the raw, personal emotions that come from a cop’s professional experiences. You’ll learn the conversations that cops have in private. You’ll be introduced to the things all cops know that aren’t part of the academy curriculum. From being seconds away from shooting a suspect, to dealing with inter-departmental politics, to pulling a pilot out of a fiery plane crash, you’ll learn how it really feels to be a cop. Laugh at Brian’s antics, fight back tears over stories of tragedy, and burn with anger when you learn what some people get away with. No subject is too sensitive and Brian addresses them all – poverty, racism, homelessness, sexism, political correctness, and even corruption. Cops are the last thin line of defense between YOU and the violent chaos we are now witnessing in cities like Seattle, Chicago, and Portland. If what you’ve seen on the news hasn’t made you get off the couch yet, and Back the Blue, then you need to read this book. You’ll find that cops are human, just like you. A portion of all royalties from this book are donated by the author to the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Tunnel to Towers has several programs to help the family members of fallen first responders. Mainly, they pay off the mortgages of the homes of fallen heroes so that the family will not have to struggle with the burden of keeping a roof over their heads. Stephen Siller was a FDNY fireman who was getting off shift on the morning of September 11, 2001. After hearing reports of a plane crashing into the World Trade Center, he called his wife to say he would be home late, jumped in his truck, and raced toward the scene. However, the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel had been closed off for security reasons, and he could not drive through. Stephen strapped 60 pounds of equipment to his back, and ran on foot to the World Trade Center. He was one of the firemen who lost his life at Ground Zero. I invite you, also, to give to the Tunnel to Towers Foundation. Please enjoy this book knowing that part of what you paid will be donated to this worthy organization.

Book Synopsis American Heroes Coming Out from Behind the Badge by : Greg Miraglia
Download or read book American Heroes Coming Out from Behind the Badge written by Greg Miraglia and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2010-12 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine working in a job you always dreamed of having and working in a career that excites and fulfills you in every way. Consider what it would be like to be highly successful in your work, admired by your peers, but always fearful that if anyone you work with discovered your secret, it could all be over. This is what it is like to be a closeted gay, lesbian, bisexual, or transgender member of law enforcement. And in the fire service and emergency medical services profession, the condition is even worse because of the common housing situation required while working a 24 to 48 hour shift. It's true that society as a whole has become more accepting of gay and lesbian people, but homophobia continues to be pervasive in much of the public safety arena. Most states still do not have any employment protection against harassment and discrimination based on sexual orientation. Imagine being fired from the job you love because of who you are. American Heroes Coming Out From Behind The Badge is Greg Miraglia's second book intended to show examples of how police officers, firefighters, and EMS professionals have been able to come out and be successful on the job.

The book contains a section on how to come out as well as a section with resources and associations supporting LGBT public safety professionals. This book is ideal for anyone who is struggling to come out as well as for straight allies who want to learn more about how to support their LGBT colleagues.
