[QUOTE="Voyageur, post: 1050069, member: 17953"] It was actually an easy choice to make. I felt that if I allowed this to happen, without doing what I did, I was no better than those that wanted it to go away. What was next? Turning a blind eye to crimes because the person who committed it was a well known person, and their image would be tarnished? I have always remembered an old joke that I had heard years before then about a guy who walked into a bar and sat down next to this stunning blonde. They got to talking, and he looked at her and asked; "Will you sleep with me for a million dollars? I can give it all to you in cash." She thought for a moment and said; "Yes. For that kind of money, I would." He smiled, and they continued talking a few minutes later he said; "I don't have a million dollars. Sorry. But I can give you $5 if you sleep with me. OK?" She shook her head, no, and said; "Not a chance. What kind of girl do you think I am?" He thought for a moment and said; "We already know what kind of person you are. We're just haggling over the price now." To me, that's pretty much how it all sounded. It would be something that I would be branded by, if I cooperated with them. Of course there were some concerns by my wife. Not that I hadn't done the right thing, but going so far away to get on a different police force scared the bejeebers out her. She told me later, much later, how it worried her. My only regret about the incident has always been that it put me in a position where I had to make the choice I did. I've wondered if I would have stayed with that department for 20 to 30 years, or if something similar happened down the road, and I would have been too old to make the switch. [/QUOTE]
