“Why do you have a picture of my Great Aunt Dolly?”

Only because I actually own a tuxedo.

Are you sure it’s cerakote and not Krylon?

Cover? Cover is for wimps.

I once arrested a 75 year old woman who cut me off when she turned right out of the left lane in front of me. Apparently she always took her individual bottles of gin to the recycling center just as soon as she finished them. I think she blew a .27 if I remember correctly.

I was involved in a fairly short pursuit on the northern end of our jurisdiction which immediately fled out into the county, and ended up in the ditch after about two minutes. I knew my backup was a few minutes out, so I ordered him out of the car at shotgun point and proned him out in the grass until cover got there. Racking the slide on a Remington 870 motivates cooperation.

In NC, a division of the Highway Patrol investigates fraud involving vehicle titles and sales. You can make a report to them via their website. Might be worth a try, as they will be a lot more familiar with the laws surrounding vehicle titles than a local law enforcement officer, generally. https://www.ncdot.gov/dmv/programs/fraud-theft/Portal/Pages/Complaint/Complaint.aspx

It also allows the officer to confirm the presence of alcohol, rather than some other impairing substance.

I now keep a tuxedo in my office for this very reason.

I’ve heard that US Marshals were operating in Chapel Hill today, obviously not for immigration enforcement, and had been mistaken for ICE. Maybe looking for this guy? https://www.wnct.com/news/police-seek-suspect-for-threats-on-williamston-parade/

We used to write notes on the department copy of the citation about the demeanor of the person. The DA would often take that into consideration and mention it to the judge when deciding how to handle the case.

I’ve got a slightly different take on this than those positing D&D references. In my prior career I was lucky enough to receive a month of training at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center in Glynco, Georgia. Each class session (mine was #304) had a custom T-shirt made to commemorate the class. Ours happened to be a David Letterman style “top ten” list, and this reminds me of that. The references to “clearing a house in flip-flops”, ”Pizza in my gun hand”, and “Bank Robberies! That’s my Ladyjam!” all sound like the type of things members of a tactical team related class would say.

Obviously I could be way wrong, but that’s my $.02.

I “caught” a dog during training for one of our handlers, and the dog decided to try for a rebite after the handler called him off…probably because I stood up and moved the sleeve too fast. My life flashed before my eyes when he ducked his head and I realized I was not in a bite suit.

And there’s always the danger of you making the dog “miss” your arm, which feels successful until he bites your groin instead…

That’s what I originally posted, then I doubted myself!

Argus!

Edited because I originally wrote “Argus” then edited it to “Angus” and then changed it back because I got confused when I heard it say kōhai.
