[QUOTE="megamania, post: 4484464, member: 9255"] Background- My father wanted to be a NYC police officer but since he was in his 30's with a family they turned him down. Family moved to Vermont in the 60's. Became a constable in 71'. Gained a lot of recognizion within the state and even somewhat larger scales with his youth prevention programs and ideas. Worked closely with DA and sherrifs office in both Vermont and NY. "Retired" in 1986. Became restless. Mother talked me into running for the office with him since he would not do so otherwise. Both of us won by a landslide. After the year was up I finished college. Looked really good in my resumes and the such. Course- the truth is I was a glorified rent-a-cop. Dealt briefly with FBI (used us more like) and learned far more about the town's citizens than I ever wanted to know. Everyone knew me and I could befriend very few. Many people here (Vermont in general) don't like law enforcement agents. Made life hell for me in High School. [/QUOTE]
