I proudly served with the City of East Providence Rhode Island Police Department for twenty-four years.
During that time I served at various ranks, and in various assignments, starting my career as a patrol officer
working on the street. As a detective I was assigned to the vice unit, major crimes and crime scene investigation.
Throughout my career I was blessed to achieve the ranks of detective, sergeant, lieutenant and eventually captain.
As captain, I served as the division commander of both the Patrol Division and the Detective Division.
I was the third ranking officer of the department while serving at this rank.
I preface this book with a brief background of my career to demonstrate that my experience in law enforcement was diverse.
I feel it gives me great insight into the law enforcement profession and what I am trying to relate to the reader
of this book.view less
