#1 ...As soon as it became known he'd been tagged before for PCP possession/use, I said that finding PCP in his system was the only chance the officer had.

#2 I witnessed a police action against a man high on PCP some years ago. During a Mardi Gras parade the man was running down the street pushing stepladders over - with little kids in boxes on top. Cop tackled him right in front of me. The guy was flopping like a fish out of water, kicking, trying to bite, etc. Every time he did so the cop whacked him on the shin with his billy club. Some stereotypical little Jewish lawyer came up accusing the cop of brutality, whereupon the cop held the club out to him and said "OK, YOU hold him until the wagon gets here." The offer was declined. I gave my name and contact info to the cop and said I'd be happy to testify on his behalf if anything came of it - it didn't. Once the guy was handcuffed and in the van he started lungeing from side to side, slamming into the walls until it looked like the van would flip over. All the cop said to me was "He is feeling no pain now but he sure is going to hurt in the morning." Of course both perp and cop were white, so ....

#3 Saving #2 to read again just before 'lights out.' Stories like that, and a slightly opened window. There really is no better sleep.

Thanks Glenmore.
