Soon he realizes that he’s part of a police force where there are some police officers who dishonor the oath they all took to protect and serve their city and he knows what is going on around him is all wrong. He has a decision to make, whether to report it and risk his career and his badge or be part of the cover up. He chronicles all of these events where he talks about different cases and everything that occurred during that time period.

I wrote this chapter so Gary can express what's going on in the city along with the questions that's going to come from his family and friends. He was there at the crime scene that night and there's the question of whether he's going to tell the truth from his family or avoid them altogether.

Book Excerpt

Code Blue An Oath to the Badge and Gun

The cameras were back in my city all over again,

This shooting that happened weeks ago is still lingering.

My fellow officers were acquitted and the tension has built,

The military is still around as the tear gas fills the streets daily.

My family members have been asking me about it,

But I’ve been dodging their phone calls and answering their questions.

What do I say to them? How do I explain this to them?

I was there at the scene too and saw everything that happened.

They didn’t have to shoot their guns but they still did,

I don’t condone what they did but my police report did.

I’m not a person to lie but I’ve been doing a lot of it lately,

It’s all over people’s television screens and on the internet.
