Jimmy was successfully promoted. Of course, the reason for his promotion was that he repeatedly solved major cases, and at the same time, he was professional and made no mistakes during his duties.
But what Jimmy didn't know was that it was mainly because he was so cruel that he shocked everyone in the police station. Among the more than a dozen existing county police officers, only three have records of killings on duty, two superintendents, one of whom is Kagg, and one police officer, Jimmy.
Not all police officers in the United States have the opportunity to shoot and injure, let alone kill. In fact, there are more than 1,000 suspects shot and killed by police across the United States, but there are hundreds of thousands of police officers in the United States, so there are very few police officers with killing records. Many police officers will develop psychological problems after shooting and killing. This also contributes to the fact that large police stations generally have professional psychologists to regulate the psychological problems of police officers, while small police stations usually cooperate with hospitals or part-time psychologists.
A person like Jimmy, who has consecutive kill records and has excellent psychological quality, is already an outstanding presence in a police team of hundreds of thousands. Generally, such people will be snapped up by different departments, especially departments like SWAT.
It's just that the Pulaski County Police Department is a small police department and does not have a special team, so he just got promoted and then continued to perform patrol duties. If it were a police department in a large city like New York or Los Angeles, certain task forces would have been mobilized by this time.
Jimmy updated his police rank, then called for takeout and treated everyone to coffee and afternoon tea. The rest was to work as usual. In fact, he had not changed at all. He still had to go out on patrol and still had to wear a police uniform. The little one he prepared himself The number's private car police lights still don't work.
Jimmy continued to patrol in the evening. He didn't care anymore. He would catch a few in the first half of the night and rest later. Anyway, if the dispatch center didn't give the task, no one would say anything when the police car was parked on the roadside.
Driving on the road at night is boring, especially for a patrol policeman like Jimmy, because he has no destination and drives completely at will, as long as he stays within his patrol range. In fact, there are very few cars on the road at night, especially after 10 o'clock. Sometimes it is normal not to see a car for more than ten minutes.
The most common violation seen at night is speeding, followed by drunk driving or drug driving. Over the past few months, Jimmy has become very familiar with the driving habits of these people. As long as he looks at the driving status of the vehicle on the road, he can basically judge whether there is drunk driving or drug driving. Drunk driving is because people who are drunk cannot control their hands and feet. The vehicle often shakes from side to side or only drives in the middle of the road.
Jimmy usually doesn't issue tickets directly to those who seem to be more pleasing to the eye, because drunk driving is very common in the United States, as long as someone comes to drive them back, it will be fine. But if it's the kind that's not pleasing to the eye, I'm sorry.
The biggest reliance for doing this is that there are currently no driving recorders and police body recorders. In many cases, it can be handled on a case-by-case basis. A few years later, driving recorders began to become popular, and 10 years later body-worn recorders became a must-have. It would not be so easy. It is illegal for police officers to turn off or cover police body-worn recorders during law enforcement, and they will be subject to administrative sanctions. investigating.
Jimmy found a car in front of him that was going very slowly. On a road with a speed limit of 45mph, he was probably driving less than 30mph. You must remember that it was night and there were no other vehicles on the road. From behind, his headlights were normal. , there is no problem in illuminating the road surface. This situation is very abnormal and completely inconsistent with American driving habits.
Jimmy came up behind the car, slowed down to match it, and turned on his lights and siren. After the car in front flashed its police lights, it turned on its right turn signal and prepared to park on the right.
Jimmy stopped, got out of the car, and walked over. The driver put his hands on the steering wheel, shaking slightly. Jimmy shined a flashlight on the driver. The driver was shaking a little, and his lips were trembling.
"Good evening, sir, do you need help?" Jimmy didn't directly ask for his driver's license. Judging from the driver's appearance, he was probably addicted to drugs or sick.
"Yes, I'm sick. I'm shaking all over and have a terrible headache. I'm on my way to the hospital now."
"Do you need me to call an ambulance? You can't drive like this." Jimmy frowned and looked at the driver's trembling hands.
"No, no, I don't want an ambulance, I can go by myself." The driver shook his head and directly rejected Jimmy's kindness.
Jimmy looked at the driver, a white man, middle-aged, slightly bald, and the car was old, and he probably understood.
"Brother, it's very dangerous for you to drive like this. Do you have a friend who can come and drive your car away? You take my car and I'll take you to the hospital."
"No, I don't know anyone here. Thank you, officer, but it's really no need, I can go by myself." The driver still disagreed, and Jimmy had no choice but to tell him to drive carefully, and then let him leave. .
Jimmy started the police car and followed it from a distance without turning on the lights or siren. The car in front of him drove a little faster. After following for more than ten minutes, Jimmy saw him turning to a clinic. The driver stopped and then turned around. Continue to patrol the highway.
After walking for a while, Jimmy was still a little worried. He returned to the clinic and found that the car he parked just now was no longer at the door.
The accident happened anyway. Jimmy got out of the car, walked to the clinic with his gun drawn, and knocked on the door.
"Pulaski County Police, open the door."
Jimmy knocked several times, but no one answered. He turned around and walked toward the back of the clinic. He looked at the window as he passed and found that it was a mess inside. Jimmy walked behind the clinic and found the car parked in the backyard with no one in it. It seems something serious has happened at the clinic.
Jimmy returned to the police car and used the radio to notify the dispatch center of the incident, asking the dispatch center to contact Superintendent Kagg for support.
Jimmy waited in the police car for more than ten minutes, and Kag also drove over in the police car. Jimmy reported the anomalies on the road to Karg. Based on the chaotic situation in the clinic seen from the window, he speculated that a serious incident might have occurred inside, at least a hostage-taking, and possibly a murder.
Karg and Jimmy walked to the clinic, and when they arrived at the door, Karg knocked on the front door. Jimmy went around to the back door and used his ability to observe the situation inside the clinic.
One person is sitting in the corner. Judging from his posture, his hands and feet should be tied, and the other person is stirring something by the wall.
Jimmy spoke to Karg through the walkie-talkie, and Karg kicked the door open and walked in with a gun, checking as he went. Jimmy was squatting next to the back door. If there were no accidents, the people inside would have escaped through the back door.
"Pulaski County Police, don't move, let me see your hands." Kager shouted, and then Jimmy heard intensive gunfire.
