Cop Stories

[MorningStar]

My brother became a cop last year. I asked him recently what the silliest call was he had to respond to. He said a woman called the cops because someone they knew came into their house and used the shower without asking (I think it was her son's friend). She knew he had been there because the floor was all wet.

My brother responded, "I guess he made a clean getaway ..."

She said, "You're making fun of me!"

There are so many loops in system that if you don't say a thing and then something big happens then you will be laughed out for not doing anything in the first place.

Clean get away: that is funny!

He must have felt really really dirty to go use someone elses shower--she should be glad that she was not there to smell him. He would have been so embarrassed had she been there :) Hehehehe ridiculous lady- her son is family, her son letting a friend use shower-no biggy, should be glad to give someone a chance to clean up their act

It makes it even funnier knowing my brother. I know exactly how his face would've looked as he said that to her. Stinker. Next year he is turning 40. We're discussing doing a mock funeral. He'll be sitting in a chair at the side of the room like he's a ghost and we'll be giving eulogies and throwing stuff he liked into a fake casket. He considered doing that when my dad turned 50, so he deserves it. We'll have his old friends show up too. Fun! I want to use a bedpan as a centerpiece and gather a bunch of retirement home pamphlets for decorations.

My ex is chief of police.....I've heard a lot of them too.....One of them was when a new officer actually arrested a dog. In his report he stated he had apprehended the suspect.

We have so much more to talk about at gatherings now. We always ask him for fun cop stories. Some of them are really gross though and I won't repeat them. There is a lot I don't know about what happens to bodies when they're decomposing. Ew. I kind of enjoyed living in ignorant bliss when it came to that stuff.

Oh yeah - Another thing I love. The people who are caught with drugs in their pockets never seem to be wearing their own pants. He says they almost always claim something like, "These are my roommates pants!"

Has he ever been called on "suspicious activity" for people geocaching.

We are on odd bunch after all poking around in the bushes..

[MorningStar]

I'll ask him.

I've only had one encounter with an LEO (as we call them), and it almost got me shot..

I was visiting a relative in another part of the state and a state cop mistook my GPS for a gun.

Strange thing though was I did have a handgun on me though. I always take my Glock 20 when I go in the woods. I have a CCP so after checking the serial on it and checking my CCP he let me go.

It turns out the area I was in is about 2 miles from a state prison, and someone had just escaped from their the day before.

Hahaha!!!! Oh my gosh! Ok, probably wasn't very funny at the time, but that's a good story.

We got a pretty funny e-mail from my brother and I waited until it was all over to say anything.

Someone was breaking in to this family's house and doing things like folding the mother and daughter's underwear and putting it on their beds. Once when they went on vacation, they came back and the daughter's bed appeared to have been slept in. They couldn't ever figure out how the person got in. The husband has been working out of town for months and during this time, the mother and daughter came home to new underwear on their beds with the tags still on them. My brother found some fingerprints outside the son's window and the guy's wallet on his bed! He called him and said "someone" found his wallet on a certain street and they needed him to come in and talk to them so they could discuss whether his cards were used in a crime. He said the guy sounded nervous. So he set up a meeting and was ready with the wallet, underwear, and fingerprint sample. My brother laughed, "He's not getting the wallet back." I haven't heard the exciting conclusion yet, but the guy is a "friend" of the family - has been for 10 years. Not too long ago, he made a pass at the wife and she shut him down. He's also having an affair with his wife's sister. I'm going to make my brother tell me the rest of the story when I see him tomorrow. I'm wondering if the guy showed up at the meeting or not. There was also evidence that he had been using one of his credit cards to break in to places. The reason he was able to get into the son's room was because he didn't have a dowel in that window.

I am now very pro dowels.
