About me huh? well here goes. My name is Brad and I have been in law enforcement for almost 21 yrs. I have specialized in domestic violence and major crimes. I am currently the Lieutenant (sure hope I spelled that right) over criminal investigations for a while now with my department and plan on staying right where I'm at for another 9 yrs till I retire. I am divorced with 2 children, ages 15 and 18, who want less and less to do with their parents and more to do with their friends. If you have teenagers, you feel my pain. I am a pretty trusting person to a degree but unfortunately, there is a degree of cynicism (thats my big word for the day...ive used it, now i'm done)that comes with my profession. I am a pretty good judge of character but if I ever trust you and later learn that I was wrong for doing so, my feelings for you rarely ever fully recover. My family on here remains small much like the number of real friends in my life that I know I can trust. I call them my 3am friends. They are the ones that I know I could call at 3am for ANYTHING. My family on here is small and will remain that way for good reason.
