It is possible. It is very possible. We have to figure out, the problem is we have to figure out how do we keep good, young cops from leaving to go do another job. Shitty cops are staying in and getting promoted.

Other than here. I think in a lot of agencies, there are good leadership that have made it to an executive level, but they're too afraid to speak out because they're outnumbered. I think those people have to have backbone. I think we have to figure out that this person is a shitty leader and they need to be demoted.

You know, if you have officers, like when I left, when I medically retired, 108 left.

Yeah, a lot of frustration. So my first call ever, day one, I got pinned the day before, and now I've reported to my duty. I get with my FTO, and we're going over all the things. 7.30 in the morning, my first call. Call comes out. Missing kid. Cool. It's a great one to go to. It's a great one to learn from. Right off the gate. Missing kids. They come up all the time. So a lot of them are runaways.

A lot of them are just hiding in closets. Don't want to go to school. Parents just can't find them. Whatever. They're not actually missing. They're just running away. So we get there. And the mother is just... She's really like distressed. I don't know what she's supposed to look like. It's my first call ever. She's like, I can't find my son. I don't know where he's at.

I've searched the whole house. I just haven't looked in the basement. They're like, well, has he ever had any behavior of running away? No, he just doesn't like going to school. Like, all right, man, we'll search the house again. Search the whole house, nothing. Open up the basement door, started walking down the steps. I see two little bare feet maybe about a foot, foot and a half off the ground.

And I'm like, wow, I already know what this is. I get all the way down to the basement. My FTO is behind me. He took an extension cord, tied it to a water pipe, multiple pipes, and hung himself. So we're sitting there, and I'm day one, man, first call. My FTO is such a coward. He said, hey, you need to go up and tell that mother that her son is deceased, and we found him. Why don't you go do that?
