The Streets We Roamed: To Serve and Protect. True Stories about Real Crimes and the Hunt for Suspects (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798893082937)

This book highlights the careers of two investigators from different law enforcement agencies and their search for violent wanted suspects. It's about their friendship, brotherhood, and the oath they had taken to protect the citizens of the State of Maryland. Above all, these are true criminal investigations conducted by two investigators who were always there for one another through life and death situations.

You will be taken behind the scenes of hotel drug interdiction investigations and will experience the risk taken by undercover detectives. You will experience life and death situations during their pursuit of armed suspects and, above all, you will be taken on a journey in the life of two aggressive investigators. You will walk the streets of Baltimore, executing no-knock search warrants and entering row homes for armed suspects wanted for sawed-off shotgun robberies and witness their fight for survival while making the arrest. You will travel with them as they investigate and search for a violent rapist wanted for multiple kidnappings and sexual assaults, including that of an eight-year-old girl. You will follow them during their pursuit of an auto theft organization that was terrorizing the streets of Baltimore County and Baltimore City and accompany them during a two-and-a-half-year undercover narcotic investigation dealing with violent Puerto Rican and Jamaican drug traffickers.

This book will take you to neighborhoods throughout the state of Maryland as they track violent suspects with the US Marshal's Violent Crimes Task Force. Above all, you will travel from Baltimore County to the City and all the roads between in the streets they roamed in the pursuit of wanted suspects. These are true stories about real crimes and their hunt for suspects.

Ernest Hemingway once said, "There is no hunting like the hunting of man, and those who have hunted armed men long enough and like it, never care for anything else thereafter."

One thing is certain, crime cannot be solved by law enforcement alone. It's the citizens working with the police who can solve and deter crime. One thing we learned along the way, citizens are our eyes and ears. They see what is occurring in their communities. They hear and have knowledge of criminal activity. It was those citizens and informants that led to our success.
