About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
#1 Some police officers are 10 percenters, who get the job done no matter what. They are relied on to get the job done.
#2 Sean Jenkins was one of the most aggressive police officers in Baltimore. He was constantly on the move, and his gung-ho attitude quickly won him entry into the city’s most elite units.
#3 The crash scene was chaotic, and it would take a moment for people to realize that the boom that was heard was not from the collision with the fire hydrant. It was the sound of Burley’s car first smashing into a Chevrolet Monte Carlo being driven by an elderly couple.
#4 Burley, who had a record of drug arrests dating back to age thirteen, was headed back to prison. He had been pulled over on the pretext of exceeding the lawful amount of window tint. The arresting officer said he had smelled alcohol, reached down for a cup in the vehicle, and seen the butt of a handgun sticking out from under the armrest of the bench-style seat.

The city of Baltimore was shrinking and struggling for most of Wayne Jenkins’s life. The flight of white families from the city began in the 1950s, and continued through the 1980s.
