My brother who is a retired cop....he worked in South Florida in the 80's and early 90's.....no it wasn't like Miami Vice, but he has a ton of awesome stories.... one really bad thing, which I'm sure bench will agree with, is that almost all cops have a really negative and suspicious opinion of people...like my brother says, you were lied to all day, every day, and dealt with people at their worst. Thankless job.
