Oliver of the Brimfield Police Department . . .\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHe’s been called “the coolest police chief in existence,” but David Oliver says he’s just doing his job—and still doesn’t understand how his small-town police department’s Facebook page attracted a worldwide audience. Readers from as far away as Australia, Ireland, and Hong Kong, and from every state in the U.S. “stop by” daily for a virtual cup of coffee with the chief. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether he’s busting “mopes” (old-fashioned cop slang for criminal types), comforting a teen runaway, or promoting school safety, Oliver’s folksy and feisty style connects with readers. He tackles tough issues: The invasion of Meth and other drugs. Drunk driving. School shootings. He champions personal responsibility, and chastises politicians. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“I have a low tolerance for nonsense,” Oliver says.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book collects the best of the chief’s politically incorrect essays, delightfully sarcastic letters to criminals, humorous crime reports, inspirational quotes, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEnter the colorful world of the Brimfield PD . . . Where you do NOT want to win a pair of “silver bracelets” and “a trip to the bed-and-breakfast” . . . Where drug mopes are pursued by a “Meth Whisperer” . . . Where dispatch calls might include an APB (“All-Pig Bulletin”) . . . And where kids caught bicycling safely are issued tickets—for free ice cream. If you’re not a mope, you’ll fit right in!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDavid Oliver will donate all of his income from this book to the Chief Oliver Foundation, a not-for-profit organization that distributes funds to police department charitable programs and assists juvenile survivors of sexual assault.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gray \u0026 Company, Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47060178436336,"sku":"9781938441462","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781938441462_p0.jpg?v=1763663360","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781938441462","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
