View all 33 ReflectionsMet Jim at the "Short Stop." He was working 77th and I was working OCB CRASH. If ever there was a Super Cop, Jim was it. He was one of the best Street Cops that ever wore an LAPD uniform. He was loved and respected by all and always had a kind word to say about all. God Bless Bro!
