Elbow Creek PD: The Real Story

I thought being a police officer was all about catching bad guys, but here I am getting cats out of trees, buying ice cream for six-year-old runaways, and shooting at rattlesnakes in someone’s back yard; where is the glory in that? I wonder what ever happened to that part of the Police Officer’s Code of Conduct that says, “As a law enforcement officer, my fundamental duty is to serve mankind; to safeguard lives and property; to protect the innocent against deception, the weak against oppression or intimidation, and the peaceful against violence or disorder; and to respect the Constitutional rights of all men to liberty, equality and justice.”
