The gang at Mollies, for all their encouragement and support ever since I was a little kid picking up brass on the range and posting targets, for always making a seat available for me when I visit, and for keeping my Dad alive in the stories they tell about him—I’m always happy and proud to be with you guys and wish I could be there more often.

Tom Vetter (LASD Lieutenant, ret.), for sharing his memories of the officers and providing valuable insight about the details of the shooting.

Captain Dave Smith (LASD Homicide), for allowing me access to his outstanding people and resources. Thank you for your trust and assistance.

Detective Sergeant Paul Delhauer (LASD, ret.), for his gracious and generous assistance with the project. Thank you for your kind reception, for your special efforts with the pictures, for allowing me to pick your brain, and for allowing me to invade your crowded office. I hope you’ll enjoy a well-deserved retirement.

Detective Sergeant Pat Dorris (LASD), for his thorough review of the manuscript and for his valuable insights to working the street. Thank you for going the extra mile to put me in touch with Homicide—it was a breakthrough that made the book possible, and I can’t thank you enough. Your dad’s excellent work on this case, now more than 40 years ago, made this researcher’s job much easier.
