Broken Badges: Cases from Police Internal Affairs Files

Read Broken Badges: Cases from Police Internal Affairs Files Storyline:

Police misconduct—cops engaging in sexual misconduct, theft, brutality, wrongful arrests, inept police supervision, and public corruption. There’s hardly any community that is immune from this cancer. It’s happening in small and large cities, urban and rural places, and local and state police agencies.
Lou Reiter has intimate knowledge of this subject. He’s been involved in police work for 52 years. The first 20 years he was with the Los Angeles Police Department and retired as a Deputy Chief. For the past 32 years he’s been a police consultant like the main character in this book, Taylor Sterling. Through this fictional consultant, Lou weaves stories taken from his extensive files and experiences on the dark side of law enforcement.
Taylor Sterling is called in to unravel and try to fix problems with a variety of police agencies throughout the country. He might be working for the insurance company, the town or city affected, or a concerned Chief or Sheriff who might not know the ins and outs of policing the police, or Internal Affairs. Taylor knows this well and he knows how to use every reasonable and professional technique to uncover police misconduct, help some officers who might be wrongly accused, and give needed help to a Chief or Sheriff when things get out of control.
These are fictional cases taken from police internal affairs files. They aren’t for the faint of heart. These stories are raw and uncensored. But in the end this book is designed to ferret out oppression by cops who were thought to be sworn to protect the innocent.
