Last Week Law Enforcement; The Good:
(1) An officer returns to duty after he is shot. His attacker gets 40 years.
(2) A policeman can never rest - you never know when you might spot a fugitive.
(3) Police in Virginia Beach bust a robbery ring in connection with 19 robberies committed over the last 10 months in Virginia Beach alone. The seven men are facing a total of 300+ charges.
(4) Chicago promotes one of its own to superintendent.
(5) Rallying to the support of a family whose father died in the line of duty.
(6) College students interning as bobbies.
(7) The Brits are putting people thru 3 weeks of training and sending them out onto the street as "police community support officers" with limited powers. It's an interesting idea if they can work the bugs out.
(8) The Army is out of the police stations in Caracus.
(9) An officer gets Bill Gates to put money into fighting child pornography on the net.
