My favorite story is the 14-year old who walked into a Chicago police station wearing a uniform, said he was from another district but was detailed for the day, and went out on patrol with another officer - for the whole day - before anyone noticed. <br /><br />http://www.chicagobreakingnews.com/2009/01/14-year-old-boy-impersonates-chicago-cop.htmlJeff Gamsohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09869425697771419546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5945843206427351559.post-20085117434830268612010-03-29T15:56:56.657-04:002010-03-29T15:56:56.657-04:00I represented a guy like that a couple of years ag...I represented a guy like that a couple of years ago. He had always wanted to be in uniform but, after being bounced out of the military, he couldn't get a job in the police department. So he went around doing stuff like David Word. I can't remember what finally happened with his case, only that it never went to trial. But I do remember he insisted on testifying and when I tried to prepare him, he kept talking about all the people he knew in the police department, how he was trained like a cop, how he should have been a cop, etc. In other words, he would have been the prosecution's best witness.
