Imagine responding to a prowler call and finding a moose causing the disturbance! Join me, Aaron, as I narrate this unforgettable incident from 2002 and the unique challenges of working in a small police department. We'll also explore how these experiences shaped my perspective on life and death, and you'll learn about my unusual habit of planning my own funeral since 2003.
Let’s take a nostalgic trip back to my early days with the police department. From childhood visits to the police library to becoming a Boy Scout Explorer and learning from mentors John Watson and Jesse Rouse, these formative experiences molded my journey into law enforcement. I’ll share some memorable moments, like John accidentally shutting his fingers in the car door, and how John, a crucial mentor and father figure, remained an integral part of my career and life.
The story takes a somber turn as we recount the tragic events of Christmas night in 2003. John Watson, who reluctantly covered my shift, faced a fatal confrontation with a suspect. I’ll discuss the profound emotional aftermath of John's death, my struggles with guilt, and the long-term effects of untreated trauma. Through raw and honest reflection, we emphasize the importance of staying vigilant and supporting those in need while honoring John’s memory and the dedication of our law enforcement community.
