Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Volume 1 established the experiment. This volume deals with what happened once it was underway.Nearly two hundred rookie police officers. No veterans. No one to break us in.In my first few months on the street, I checked boxes some officers never see in an entire career-rape, home invasion, robb…ery, shootings, stabbings, burglaries, blizzards, foot chases, and horse chases.These are not textbook examples or stories polished by hindsight. They are the events as they happened, told by someone who did not know at the time why he saw the world differently.Set against the backdrop of 1970s Philadelphia, Rookie Police Experiment Volume 2 continues the true story of the Philadelphia Police Department's unprecedented decision to replace an entire district's patrol officers with rookie officers fresh from the academy.The result is a collection of stories that are sometimes dangerous, sometimes absurd, and occasionally hard to believe-but all true.Step back into the 17th District. Nearly two hundred rookie police officers. No veterans. No one to break them in. Rookie Police Experiment Vol 2 continues the true story of Philadelphia's unprecedented all-rookie patrol district in the late 1970s. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Get ready for an experiment unlike anything you've ever imagined, one with an extraordinary twist.The year: 1977The place: Philadelphia, a city of nearly two million.The problem: Out-of-control police corruption.The 'solution': Transfer ever…y veteran officer out of a notoriously corrupt police district and replace them, overnight, with 147 brand-new rookies fresh from the academy.No warning. No preparation. Just drop us into a neighborhood drowning in crime, crawling with violent gangs, fueled by an open drug trade, packed with illegal speakeasies, flooded with guns, and guarded by feral dogs roaming the streets. And, for good measure, it also happened to be home to the second-busiest liquor store in the state.At 11:00 p.m., a teletype announced the order. Veteran cops grabbed their gear and vanished. By midnight, my rookie class rolled in. What we found wasn't a functioning police district-it was chaos. The station was gutted, cars disabled, the locker rooms trashed. Suddenly, it was up to a bunch of kids with badges and guns to hold the line.Now, here's the twist: among those rookies was me, someone who, though undiagnosed at the time, had Asperger syndrome. A district so corrupt and dangerous would have tested the toughest veteran cop. For me, it was something else entirely.What followed was a baptism by fire, a surreal mix of danger, absurdity, and raw survival.So step inside the 17th District with me. Read the stories. Feel the madness. And when you're done, you'll understand why I say:When I die, I'm going to Heavenbecause I've already been to the 17th District.
