got home what well when I got home I
came up the stairs and started to put my
key in the door yes and I heard
and noise like a computer in my flat I
thought it was a so what did you
do I ran into the street and phoned the
police from the phone box on the corner
but they came very quickly but while we
were walking up the stairs my door
opened I thought oh no the is
coming out but it wasn't a burglar who
was it it was Carl you know
from Oh oh yes what
was he doing here he was waiting for me
to come home
imagined while I was sitting in the
was sitting in my flat
while was sitting in
was sitting in her flat while
was sitting Carl was sitting
so it wasn't a burglar it was Carl and
he didn't steal anything has anybody
ever stolen anything from you yes my
family was some years ago when I
was living at home I had my bag stolen
out of my car it happened I was
finishing duty and I was picking friend
up I actually locked the car and left
the bag in the front of the car on the
floor I was about 2 to 3 minutes came
back the window was and the bag
was gone when I was growing up we used
to leave our in a that
was and people started stealing
them so we eventually had to the
my husband into by burglar about
5 or 6 years ago and all the other
was stolen
television and and also on my
wife's back to James and
James wants to know what Carl was doing
at the flat last night
what was Carl doing here
I told you he was waiting for me he
wanted to talk about a new computer how
did you get in the let him in
why did he do that he knows Carl he came
to the flat one day while he was staying
in London Carl's been to this flat yes
don't you remember no you didn't tell me
that I do tell you I remember you sure
yes I'm quite sure okay
where's he's at his hotel oh good
but he's coming here this morning oh
good
he wants us to work together on a new
project oh good
is a police officer in
let's find out about her
job I've been with the Police
Department for 13 and a half years
currently I'm crimes against
property the division
several areas we investigate
white-collar crime we investigate
property crimes we investigate anything
to do with or any kind of
stolen property we investigate all those
types of crimes
when you
everyone is so you
have to do at least two years and
and that's what I did one of the things
you do is you learn how to get from one
place to the other quickly you learn
what your major streets are and so you
just drive around trying to find out who
lives where and who knows what's going
on every district has an area where one
person knows what's going on all over I
mean that person stays home all day and
they're just looking looking out and
those are the people that we look for
but most people call people or our
best is finding out what's
going on
and I think that people tend to trust
people of the same race and I found that
even when I was taking release calls
with another officer who was not a black
officer if the person that we were
talking to reflect they would just for
some reason turn to me and not the other
officer I get afraid a lot of the times
but one of the things that you're taught
in the class is if people don't
see that you're and if you
just do your job and I've talked my way
out of a lot of things
were there any funny moments
several years ago when I was working
and I received a
call of a female who was she
said that someone was in her home I was
the first officer there I didn't know
where my was and she ran to the
door and she goes they're in here
they're in here right now so as we were
walking through her home
it was dark her lights weren't on and
she was behind me you know just stuck to
me like I know it was just really funny
but she saying that the person was in
the bedroom because that's where she saw
them and as we were walking through her
apartment our apartment the the wind
came through and blew a curtain right
into me and I thought there was a person
that pushed that curtain and I had my
gun drawn and almost shot that curtain
you're sitting in your car for special
this is car right here
whose car yeah you driving yeah yeah
license wanna
I'm gonna give how old are you 16 police
work was not a goal I didn't
grow up wanting to be a police officer I
didn't even decide to become a police
officer until my senior year at college
but because I've worked in various
from to Community
Services and the police neighborhood
center and now I like it a lot
well I couldn't do that job no could I
well that's all for now but remember be
