The topics are still relevant to this day as sadly crime continues to increase in most cases and many still fail to use much common sense. I wanted to post one of our stories that received a ton of attention in the press from years ago as a sample of what we offer in the book and also to show that the cops you might either hate or love do care about what you think and are there to protect your safety.
