Front Yard: Police Officer

police officer: I found myself in an awkward situation this month as I stood in my front yard locking eyes with a hard-core gang banger I'd met during a murder investigation in May of 2000. , according to Winnipeg Free Press. I immediately felt a surge of apprehension and fear run through my body as I searched my memory banks trying to access the digital face-recognition technology I'd developed during a 26-year career in policing. This scenario is a police officer's worst nightmare. No cop ever wants to see a known gangster standing in his front yard. Our homes are our sanctuaries, our place to relax and escape all the madness a career in law enforcement entails. It's also a place where the people we love reside. As a result, police officers go the extra mile to keep their addresses out of the hands of the criminal element. A gang member is led away by police. For some, there is hope for a brighter future.
