i will start this out by saying this.. if you are here, then you know who i am and what i am about. for those of you who dont, my name is clark tucker and i am a criminal justice major at east tennessee state university and i work as an intern at the johnson city police department. i am going to be a police officer full-time after i complete my intership at the jcpd. read the following and leave your questions or comments. thanks.

i view all things and society totally different now. nothing i knew prior to last night at 7pm is the same. i am doing my pre-employment internship at the johnson city police department here in johnson city, tennessee - for those of you that do not know.

last night was my first night at my new job site, the johnson city police department. i showed up at headquarters at 1830 hours for roll call. i was assigned to Master Police Officer Alex Perry and we set out for patrol at approximately 1911 hours. we went to the city's depot and filled up the cruiser and headed out to our first call.

first call: car accident on mayfield and walnut street. these 2 elderly folks were turning into their store that they own and some transients from pennsylvania attempted to pass them on double yellow lines, resulting in an illegal traffic move and moreover, resulting in the left-rear side of the folks' van been smashed in. we showed up second on the scene and secured it accordingly. upon arrival, the victim stated that the subject driving the vehicle that hit he and his wife immediately got out of the car and ran to the back of their place of business, placing a large brown bag somewhere off mayfield lane. we showed up, got the information from all the parties involved. 2 of the female subjects has no identification and smelled of terrible odors and alcohol, not to forsake the atrocious smell of cigarettes that they smoked pervasively as we performed our routine procedures... we called another officer in and he parked about half a mile down the road and had his binoculars (sp) out and was hiding behind a forsaken business spying to see of he could see where the bag was placed. only one of the subjects in the trooper that hit the van had a valid license, henceforth, she was able to drive away. we had an officer stay in place down the road and see if they came back and retrieved their goods they had hidden from us. we immediately got another call and moved out accordingly. the end of this call is unknown to me and officer perry, at this point and to my best knowledge.


second call: we were immediately dispatched to the food lion over towards elizabethton where state of franklin passes headquarters. a few mexican subjects had ran into a woman in her parked car. we broke broke both of the parties up and heard both sides. at this point, i was wishing i had been a little more fluent in spanglish... haha. (spanish - english) thats cop slang whether or not you believe it. anyways, the woman said that she would not file a charge against the illegally driving male subject if he paid her fifty dollars. he paid up. we ended it and left the scene. easy call. i like these kinds of calls. simple, easy, and NO paper work.


traffic: we wrote a little under 10 tickets last night i believe. we got a few off of I - 26 and at my favorite hiding spot off of Highway 67 going towards elizabethton, at the end of the city limits.


third call: an elderly woman called in and said that she heard gun shots and was in fear that someone was prowling around her residence on the south side of town, in a rather rough area. we went out and officer perry performed a search of the premises and found nothing to be out of the ordinary. but the woman felt better after the police came and made sure she was safe. this is perhaps the most rewarding aspect of the job. helping the elderly, that actually DO respect us, unlike the majority of the young, teenage punks we come in contact 90% of the time.


fourth call: the skating rink. 3 female juveniles were fighting over some stupid shit at the skating rink next to point blank firing range. we had the owner call their parents. they came and picked them up and the subjects were banned from his establishment for 2 weeks respectively. no charges were filed. i hate it when the police are called to such petty and easily-resolved conflicts... moving on.


fifth call: captain tunnel, our captain on the 7pm-7am shift, called officer perry and another officer, along with myself, to go do some bar raids at the nashville sound and other bars and clubs that are notorious for criminal activity occurring at. on a side note. this is perhaps why i see things differently. if your life sucks so bad to where you have to go to clubs and bars to feel good and this is your idea of "going out," you are the kind of person that gives us, the police, the most pleasure. why? because we derive pleasure from your lack of a life and vain need of being entertained by going to places where the sole reason who are there is for an easy one night stand, a piece of ass, to flirt, get intoxicated, or to fight. all the above are lifeless and worthy of shit. anyways, we went to nashville sound and saw the kind of people that go there... i think we call it the teeth to tattoo ratio... most women and men who go there have an equivalent amount of teeth and tattoos, quite humorous. anyways, we made our round there and all was well there. they were at maximum capacity last night.


sixth call: we were dispatched to an assault/tire slashing/drug bust on west walnut street. evidentally, the male subject was high and decided to slash someones tires at the nashville sound after we had done our bar/club raids. well the victims saw him and commenced in chasing him down to shamrocks, a local busniess notorious for selling tobacco and alcohol. well the male subject was ran off the road and then chased by the victims and beaten the hell out of. upon them performing a citizens arrest on him, we searched him once again and found that he has a few viles of crack cocaine for resale. his charge, amongst other things, possession of schedule I narcotics for resale, possession of drug paraphenailia, etc... he will be living at the jail for a while then having an incredulous, and possibly unwanted move to a state pen.


seventh call: this call was the highlight of the night. this will be the longest of the report here. it should also be noted that when felony arrests are made, the paper work takes some 4 hours by the arresting officers. moving along. while we were patrolling around, this girl named kim, calls me that i have known and been associated with for a while. she asks me what happened on walnut st., etc... then i guess, she went to the very place that she tells me are bad, the club. she hit classics billiard (a place where white trash live and 'play pool'), the 2nd level (which she claims she didnt know existed... haha, shitty liar this girl is), and the best of them all - THE DIRTY P!!! its called the planet really though.. anyways, she goes to the 2nd level and dances with a few shitwads. i use that term very indicatively as well. keep reading a you will know why and how.. well she obviously has this clubbing side to her where she goes out and just dances with anyone... haha. easy. anyways, an hour later after seeing her at the 2nd level dancing, we get a call over behind the tree streets for an auto burglary. well we show up on the scene as primary officers, because we were the first ones there aside from the Lt. well we secure both parties and get them separated. the driver of the white jeep cherokee was intoxicated to say the least. he was 17. the mouth this son of a bitch had on him was dispicable. although, he didnt talk too much shit to us because, regardless of whether or not you want to admit it, you dont talk disrespectfully to police officers. this was the case here as well after a while and he realized he was going to jail. he was charged with underage consumption/possession, driving on a revoked license, DUI, auto burglary, and a few traffic violations that were futile compared to one word - BURGLARY. for those of you that dont know, burglary is a felony and carries heavy time in prison. well, the driver is placed in custody and the passenger, whom owned the vehicle, was intoxicated as well. we charged him with consentual DUI, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and auto burglary. well after we got him in cuffs, i escorted him back to the cruiser and placed him in the back of the car. he was wasted and was an eyesore to say the least. however, after the guard of trying to stand up to me because he was going to jail, he mellowed out and all was fine. he began asking me questions. i told him what his miranda rights were and explained them more in depth to him. still, he preoceeded to ask me questions and talk to me while officer perry was doing the majority of his paperwork at the rear of our cruiser. we were talking and i will be damned if i found out what i did. he confessed that he and his friend had been at the 2nd level and were dancing "with this blonde skinny girl." this is going to get good... hold onto your seats folks. well, that struck me as interesting because i had seen kim there earlier that night. he said, "sir, i was just dancing with this blonde chick that was all up on me and then this guy over there said i broke into his truck." i told him that i was just there to back up and support officer perry and that i could be of no further service to him. he said that this girl he had been dancing with was named KIM. LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i couldnt believe it. this girl that i had been associating myself with has been and still hangs out with the people that i put in jail. he was like, "sir, she is really skinny, has dark skin, and was wearing black pants and a white shirt." exactly what kim was wearing when i saw her... haha. coincidental? i think not. i proceeded to ask him what kind of car she was driving and he was very cooperative with me. he told me a black chevolet, 4 door, with something hanging from the rear view mirror. LOL. textbook discription of kim's car. so we took him to the jail and booked him in. this took about 3.5 hours and was monotonous. after that our shift was up and i returned back to the house.





i think it is soooo funny that someone that feels so strongly against people who go to the otter and clubs GOES TO THEM HERSELF! that strikes me as perplexing. i have made the decision after discussing the matter with a few of my fellow police officers at the department that girls that go to clubs regularly and loiter at various scandalous locations are NOT the material for long term, loving relationships. so regardless if you are a police officer or not, if you are associating yourself with a guy or girl that is a regular at a low budget, skanky ass club or bar, DITCH HIM/HER nowbecause chances are, like kim's unsexy dance partner, you could end up meeting myself or another one of my fine partners sworn to uphold the constitution of the united states. stay safe and thanks for stopping by.
