Readers Favorite International Book Awards Curbchek is the story of
a damaged cop, Zach Fortier. Fortier worked in the police
department for the city where he grew up. One foot in the world of
the cops, courts and legal system. The other in the world of gangs,
drugs, thugs and street violence. Where the laws and rules are made
by the strongest, the schemers and most brutal. Read about the
transformation of Fortier from a green rookie to a damaged paranoid
veteran seeing danger in every situation. Follow along as he walks
this tight rope. Trying to make difference, breaking the laws he
promised to enforce. This is a story of law and order uncensored.
Zach Fortier is back with more true crime accounts from the
streets. This time he deals with the subject of cops gone bad,
including an account of one cop that made the FBI's ten most wanted
list for a brutal, quadruple murder. It's hard to believe-and
read-about so many police officers that fall from grace and make
every mistake possible: theft, murder, fraud, drug abuse, and more.
Not to mention the cops sent to prison, proving that "anyone is
capable of anything given the right circumstances." Get a rare
insider's look at what cops rarely talk about-true accounts of cops
gone bad. It's a ride on the dark side of law enforcement you won't
forget.
StreetCreds is a look inside the world of street gangs and the cops
that work them. I worked the street for many years before I entered
the Gang Task Force, joining it with the idea that I could rise to
the level of violence of any banger I encountered - a really stupid
idea. I wanted to "earn back" the respect of the citizens for the
police; I grew up in this city, and I worked its streets the best
way I knew how, feeling that I had a firsthand understanding of
what the citizens were experiencing. The increasing frustration at
gang crimes, drive bys, robberies, never feeling safe with your
kids in your own neighborhood - I wanted to do what I could to make
that fear go away. Once I was inside the task force, though, the
reality was a rude awakening for me. The task force was poorly
managed and staffed by detectives mostly out for themselves, and
the internal politics made success incredibly difficult and almost
impossible - almost, but not quite. Witnessing bad cops, brutal
crimes, and realizing the department had been compromised, the cost
was much higher for me personally than I anticipated. I left the
unit two years later, severely broken, edgy, and dangerously
damaged. StreetCreds is the story of how all that came to be. Hold
on for a reality check. Zach
