Twenty years on the job. Now I break it down for you.

I served 20 years with the Town of Haverstraw Police Department in New York. I started on patrol, spent seven years on the county SWAT team, and worked my last ten years as a detective.

On the channel I go through real bodycam footage. I break down what officers may be seeing, what they’re thinking, what they get right, and where I think things could have been handled differently.

No overcomplicating it, and no pretending it's all black and white.

  • 20years on the job
