Read about......the Chief of Police who became a multiple murderer......the Chief who was shot down in the police station by one of his own men......how the OCPD grew from 141 officers to more than 2,000 in one day......the OCPD officers who worked for the FBI as "hired guns" and shot Wilber Underhill and John Dillinger......and the inside story of the police response to the Oklahoma City bombing.This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the Wild West and America's law enforcement history.
