Case #3 – The People vs Rich Tomlin (Leg Man)

Case #3 – The People vs Rich Tomlin (Leg Man)

When that leg climbing Joe Haertsch left Carson Station, he left an empty spot in Captain John Scott’s life, specifically on his leg.  Detective Rich Tomlin felt he was up to the task of filling that void.  One day a few Narco guys were in the hallway jawjacking with the Captain.  Rich saw this.  Thinking that the Narco guys were trying to edge him out of his coveted position on the Captain’s leg, Rich panicked.  He grabbed a nearby trustee who was mopping the floor.  Then, in a voice just loud enough for Helen Keller to hear, Rich started bragging about his intuitive investigative skills, and how his work has had a positive impact on the lives of the fine citizens of Carson.  This pathetic, self-serving speech was accompanied by sidelong glances to see if the Captain was noticing.  Just typing this story makes me want to puke!  Anyway, this disgusting incident resulted in the following exchange between the Captain and the Narco crew.
Narco Guy – “Hey Cap, I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but it looks like Tomlin is trying to get on your leg again.”
Captain Scott – “That’s okay, Rich has season leg tickets.”

VERDICT – Rich Tomlin, this Court finds you Guilty of Shameless Leg Climbing.
SENTENCE – The Court orders you to be confined for a period of 1 year in a puppy kennel, so that you can see what it’s like to have someone trying to climb your leg 24/7.
You are further ordered to recompense Captain Scott for any of his pants that you may have ruined.  Captain Scott, the Court recommends you carry a spray bottle filled with lemon juice, and spray Rich in the face with it when he tries to climb your leg, that, or try flicking him on the nose, while saying, “NO!”, in a loud firm voice.

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. ...

The French Toast Connection

  The French Toast Connection        So, when we first got married, Michelle couldn't cook.  As a bachelor, I had survived on oatmeal, eggs, sandwiches, spaghetti, salad and canned soup and that was good enough for me. Michelle's cooking skills were on par with mine, except my eggs, sandwiches, spaghetti and salads were better. Michelle, however, wanted to improve her cooking skills so, every couple of months, she would try a new recipe on us. Sometimes it was good, sometimes it was okay, sometimes it didn't turn out so well.      One morning, when Logan was about three years old and Conner was about six, Michelle decided to give french toast a go for the first time. I like french toast, but the boys had never had it.  Michelle called us, saying breakfast was about ready.  We all sat down in our usual places.  Michelle next to me and the boys across from us.  Michelle put a slice of french toast on each of our plate...

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...
