There were six officers when I started and now there are twelve with more planned. We have been spread pretty thin, especially with all the new requirements and rules that have to be followed. Well, that has changed. Forty years ago marijuana wasn't a problem. Gradually it came to be, and about every other kind of drug also began showing up in the county.
Some officers are particularly good working on drug problems.
I won the Golden Toilet Bowl award once. We rushed a house and a guy tried to flush a bag of marijuana down the toilet, but I managed to reach down and pull it out just in time. They do and they don't. One might be good in dealing with drunk drivers and another with breaking and enterings and another in dealing with people. But all have the same responsibilities.
