Case #2 - The People vs Former Carson Deputy Ed Torres (...and while we’re on the subject of shotguns)

Ed Torres designed a new shotgun obstacle course. He and Ruben Alvarez were on foot looking for a bad guy. They came to a fence they had to climb over. Ruben went first then Ed tried to pass the shotgun over the fence to him. Midway over, the shotgun went, “BOOM!” Ruben’s underwear went smelly and Ed went excuse making. Nobody else has tried Ed “Boom Boom” Torres’ shotgun obstacle course since. Patent pending.

VERDICT – Ed “Boom Boom” Torres, this Court finds you Guilty of Assault With A Deadly Weapon On A Peace Officer.
SENTENCE – At dawn you are to be shot 21 times by a firing squad using the bean bag shotguns, while wearing Ruben’s underwear as a blindfold.

Case #11- The LASD vs L.A.P.D. (playing cops and cops)

In September 1987, the Carson patrol area known as, "Tortilla Flats", was suffering a rash of burglaries. To combat this, Deputy Ray Gayton-Jacob and Al Harris, who were training officers at the time, came up with a burglary suppression plan. On, about, Wednesday, September 14, 1987, Ray and his trainee would be dressed in full uniform, but in an unmarked, Chevy Malibu, detective car. They would cruise the Tortilla Flats neighborhood looking for burglars. Al and his trainee, would remain outside of the neighborhood in a regular patrol car. If Ray and his partner saw something suspicious, they would keep an eye on it and call in Al and his trainee to check it out. Things were quiet, until about 1:00 A.M.. Ray, and his trainee, had just finished jamming a hype at Torrance Boulevard and New Hampshire Avenue and had resumed their patrol. Ray spotted a black and white patrol car coming slowly their way. ...

Retirement party advice

Retirement party advice So March is coming up and we all know what that means. It's retirement season! Retirement can be a very stressful time. I'm not talking about retirement itself, I mean the Retirement Party. People wonder if they should throw a retirement party. If they do, should they sell tickets? If they sell tickets, will anybody buy them? Should they make it a sit down dinner? Should they foot the full bill? Who will come? Should it be invitation only? Will ANYBODY come? So here's my advice. I wondered about throwing a party. Initially I was, "Naw, I don't want to sell tickets. First off, what if nobody buys them, or even worse, it's like the football party I threw in 2000 where only three guys from the station showed up and I'd barely said anything more than "Hey" to them in the years I'd known them? Secondly, I don't want to foot the bill for the whole party, 'cause everybody knows, if the dr...

Case #46 - re The People vs Jeff Fleming again (Is someone missing a fat white guy?)

Case #46 - re The People vs Jeff Fleming again (Is someone missing a fat white guy?) A bunch of us were helping Jeff and the rest of the Carson Narco crew out on a warrant service. Entry had been made and everything was Code-4, or so we thought. I was standing on the front porch of the target location when a neighbor lady came running up to me all out of breath, “Deputy! Deputy!” “Yes Ma’am?” “One of the people you’re looking for ran out the back!” “What!”, I said. I was surprised, because the house had been surrounded when entry was made and nobody reported seeing anyone run out. “Are you sure?” “Yes! He jumped the wall into my backyard and my rottweiler went after him.” I got on the radio and advised units that we had an outstanding suspect. At this moment Jeff Fleming came walking out of the house and stood by us. he was sweating and somewhat out of breath. That didn't really surprise me. At the time, Jeff was frickin massive and jus...
