Police Officer's Hardest Day

Video Transcript

Some of the, the harder parts of my job is, some of them, some days it's not as physical, but, just a mental strain, everything that you, you go under your, try to listen to different people, you write different reports and so as far as a physical strain, it's not lot of mental, that way. Some of the other things that are hard in this job is seeing children where they've been hurt by a pedophile or whatever it might be, that's stuff tough, to try to see kids get hurt. Or, as far as traffic accidents, you see little kids get hurt or elderly people get hurt, that's really tough because younger people, they can take it better than the kids or the elderly people. So, so those things are tough. And one of the toughest things is I remember being on patrol and you hear of an officer going down, being shot. And so that's, that's one thing that was really tough that, that sits on my mind, I remember the location where I sitting and waiting, watching for this suspect vehicle. And that officer didn't make it. And I knew that officer, I've known him for years before he's a police officer. And when you have another officer, a fellow officer go down, that's really tough because we're all in for the same reason to make things safer on the street and for us to go home. And especially if you know that officer in person, that's, that's tough and something that I'll never forget. Another thing that's frustrating in this job, that's hard, is we work the case, we don't have our suspect and I know the suspect did it, my victim knows the suspect did it, but I can't prove it. And so, that's, that's a frustrating thing. You know someone committed the crime, but you can't prove it in court. And so, as a Police Officer you can come across those things and you just need to know that's going to happen. You're not going to solve every crime as much as you'd like to, but things, or you're going to lose a court case because of one little technicality. And that's frustrating. But, we'll get him next time. You just have to keep at that, next time you see him, you may have charges, you may be able to prosecute it and that's our plan. But it can be frustrating at times too, so just so you know that.
