In this episode we talk with Major Adrian Arnold, who currently oversees our Judicial Operations Bureau but whose 30 year career includes stints in nearly every part of the agency. His entire future was launched with a single trial ride-along in Michigan, but the promise of snow-free winters combined with the idea that being a Florida cop would be a little like Miami Vice lured him to the PCSO. Major Arnold was on the forefront of the Community Policing movement, at a time when law enforcement was starting to realize that a close connection with the community and addressing neighborhood problems like street lighting can make a world of difference in preventing crime. Hear why driving a Mustang for a cruiser isn’t as fun as you’d think, why the sheriff tore up his promotion memo in his face, and how one drunk lady gave him a candy-coated nickname that lasted his whole career.
