| Got a complaint from someone tonight off of a stop when I gave them a WARNING. Aren't people awesome? |
| A few years ago during a snowstorm, I was flagged down by this kid who had gotten into a MV accident with a truck on a one way street. I helped arrange for a tow and assisted him in exchanging papers with the less than compliant driver. He asked me to take the accident report, but I told him he could just go down to the local BPD district station to take care of that. I let the young man sit in the cruiser with me while he waited for the towing company. We chatted a bit and he told me his father was a lieutenant for a department on the North Shore. Then he asked if he could have my contact info, "just in case" he needed it in the future. No problem, I gave him my name and the number to the station. A few weeks later, I received a message that he was looking for me, so I gave him a call back and he told me he was having a problem with his insurance company and asked if I would write them a letter stating what I saw. After speaking with one of the day sargents about it and getting the go ahead from him, I told the guy that I would do it, but I didn't know if it would be much help because I did not actually WITNESS the accident. He said, hey, whatever you can do would be great. So, I jotted out this letter stating what I had observed as I rolled on scene, which was basically the conditions, directions and locations of the vehicles, and I mailed it out to him. A few days later when he received it, he called me and questioned the content of the letter. I told him that I had said to him prior that all I can do is say what I saw, I cannot make any judgements or assumptions or outright LIE (which is really what he wanted me to do) because I did not witness the accident. He didn't seem too happy about that. A few hours later, I got a phone call from one of MY lieutenants chewing me out about some LT from this North Shore dept. that called to make a complaint about me. You know, I tried to be nice, and that was the thanks I got! ![]() |
| Or are you referring to the 16 year old that used to post on here? |
| No..If it was Marlborough PD...He would have been ignoring Dunny and playing with all the lights and sirens in the cruiser...I can picture it.." Dunny...I Love your wig wags! |

| P.S I never write statements for people in regards to accidents, I have had a few requests and I flat out deny. Easier to stay out of trouble by not doinf stuff like that. |
