Cops Don't Just Eat Donuts (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781478321040)

This book offers a new perspective for those who think cops only eat doughnuts and pull people over for no reason. This book provides a chronicle of crime and, occasionally politics, in Kansas City, Missouri, over the span of half a century. These are real cops, sharing their observations and feelings. These are real cops who have spent countless hours poring over fingerprints, cataloguing evidence to identify suspects. These are real cops, who when the state prosecutor's office wouldn't file cases to help break up a notorious Gypsy crime ring, went against the system, using a television journalist to get the case the attention it deserved to get the cases filed. These are cops with families, cops who have seen their fellow policemen die, cops who have been caught in shoot-outs, robberies and house fires. These stories run the entire gamut, from funny to horrible, from pathetic to heartwarming, from wild and exciting to downright unbelievable. While most of us sleep and chase our dreams, cops watch and wait for evil to manifest itself so they can track it down and snuff it out. These are real-world stories of good guys vs. bad guys, of life and death, and all the strange, funny and ridiculous mistakes and mishaps that happen to a policeman carrying a badge.
