This lady called, she was a neighbor. I haven't heard from my neighbor in two weeks. She's elderly. She has no family. As soon as I step out of the car and like the smell, I almost threw up. We kicked the door and shot herself in the head with a revolver and she was 75. It was bad. She was there for two weeks. It still like gives me chills to this day. My name is Kaylee Victoria Fesock and I've been a certified law enforcement officer in the state of Florida for four and a half years.

Kaylee Victoria talks about becoming a police officer following in her family's footsteps, her first five years on the job, and what policing is really like day to day.

So I grew up in Baltimore, Maryland, and I went to school in Bel Air, Maryland. Okay. Until I was 18. I didn't even know there was a Bel Air. Bel Air. And it's boogie. It's boogie. So it was boozy for sure. What was your upbringing like? My upbringing was interesting. So my dad was in the military. So he was always away a lot. My dad was deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan. I come from five generations of police. So my dad actually was a cop in DC Metro. So my dad was always away. And then my parents are split up. It was hard for me. They split up when I was one and then got back together when I was 10 and had my brother.

I have a 16-year-old brother, so very close with my mom. My dad and I are cool. We love getting

sushi together, but like if shit goes bad, I'm calling my mom. That's my girl. So do you feel like

you were always meant to become a cop? Was that like the destiny in the pipeline?

Yes, but I love what I do, but I didn't realize how negative things can be sometimes in policing, especially as a female.

Like, there's only 12% of women in policing, and I'm such a positive person.

And, you know, as a cop, you're around so much negativity.

Like, you know, you have the people that have been on for 30 years and they're like miserable every day and like, I'm proactive. I'm not going to sit under a tree.

So I would piss off the guys that have like 30 years on because I'm out there like pulling people over and, you know, just being out there, like calling out on the radio, like stopping out of businesses. Like, I love talking to people.

That's why I became a cop.

And most cops are not like me.

I'm very, like, bubbly and all going.

So, like, it's kind of weird, I guess.

So, like, I'll pull you over and I'll smile.

So, I don a cop. And most cops are not like me. I'm very like bubbly and all going. So like

it's kind of weird, I guess. Like I'll pull you over and I'll smile. So I don't know. It's weird. So but that's how it should be. You shouldn't be like every time I've been pulled over by a state trooper. Yeah. Um, serious face like scary. Do they all look like Mr. Potato Head? Is that like, Like, is that just me or like, dude?

I got a ticket from one.

Like, literally, a year before I became a cop.

No.

Yeah, yeah, in Orlando. He was so mean. He was so mean. Like, I'm like, dude, I was going 10 over. You actually are committed murder. I'm telling you. Matt and I, when we were going to interview the Hells Angels old president in California, Yeah. It was last September and we're driving. We get pulled over, but we didn't know on California highways if you go the left or the right because they have both like gaps, both shoulders on each side. So we're like swerving back and forth and he keeps blaring his sirens at us. But the guy was a dick. Like he was not nice. He was just so rude. There's a lot of that in policing.
