Rob Mead didn't plan on becoming a Sheriff's Deputy, but when he entered the Academy in 1959 at the age of 21, he found it suited him. For nearly 30 years patrolling the streets of Los Angeles, in uniform, undercover, as part of the specially-trained SWAT team, and working in the prisons, he saw it all. He was involved in historic events, met the famous and the infamous, protected presidents, and saved lives. He witnessed the best and worst of humanity: heroism and cruelty, courage and tragedy, loyal friendship and the craziest behavior you can imagine. Law enforcement wasn't always pretty. It sometimes went off-book. It was a taxing job that shortened lives. But for Rob, it was about helping the good guys, and that, along with the love of a wonderful woman, kept him alive.
