All the violence, car chases, and investigations aside, officers also encounter people and things that would cause you to slap your forehead and roll your eyes. You would not believe it! These are the stories retired Sheriff Tommy Allen now shares in this book. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn thirty-four years in law enforcement in a rural North Carolina county, twenty-eight as the county's elected sheriff, Sheriff Allen tells these stories, mostly from the first person, as someone who was there.
