This is Things Police See, First Hand Accounts, with your host Steve Gold.

Hey guys, welcome to the podcast. In this interview I chat with retired Los Angeles deputy sheriff Robert Rangel.

Not only is Robert a retired police officer, but he's also an accomplished author.

I should have mentioned this at the top of the interview

but I'm not used to having people on here that actually have some credits in the

entertainment industry so I kind of botched that so I'm doing it now.

His last book is called the Red Dot Club Victims Voices.

In these books he breaks down the events and police officers lives

while they're on duty when someone tries to

murder them and it's super interesting it gets super super good reviews it's on

Amazon you can order it there I'm mean, yeah, so he just breaks down like the five to 10 second events

when someone's trying to murder a cop and just kind of extrapolates out that time frame

by going into the cop's mind and seeing what they were thinking.

He actually does that in this interview for an event when he was on duty when someone tried

to murder him and his partner.

So if you like this interview you'll you'll absolutely love

the book so I had to kind of fix that up front. Sorry about that Robert. I'm I'm

still still learning here. I will have to warn you. You know sometimes I ask people

what's the most bizarre or craziest call you went to and I always tell them don't

hold back tell me it just say it because I don't I don't want the show to be I don't want to censor cops I want people to know

The crazy stuff cops see and Robert really

it delivers on this.
