Summary

Ernie Witten is not only a good friend of mine, he was, and is, a legendary undercover officer in the area that I worked. He retired after 32 years of service with the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department and served 27 of those years in an undercover capacity. 27 years of putting himself in countless dangerous and vulnerable situations in service of his community. One of those situations almost cost him his life, but through all of it he remains one of the most positive and optimistic people I know.
