16. I grew up next door to a family where the father was a cop. A bad cop. Aggressive.

His sons were bullies.

I witness him beat his poor rail thin German Shepherd once.

Years later after they moved on a neighbor told my parents of how the kids would try to jump out the back window: to escape their own beating.

I felt sorry for those kids, and I wondered if they carried that aggressive trait to adulthood.

But I digress. The word was that the other LEOs knew he was bad, but they just kept silent.

Word gets around after a while.
