According to the book description of Why Would you Want to be an Undercover
Cop, “This is a story about the October 15, 1976 shootout with the Outlaw Motorcycle Club in Tampa, Florida.
There are a number of short stories about the detectives that made up the unit at the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office
during that period. There are humorous stories that end up at the tragic ending. Over the years these stories were told over
and over again. I decided to put the stories together for the right version of the many tales from the "Narc Side".
I hope you enjoy them.”

About the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office In 1845, the Florida legislature enacted a law which said that the Sheriff
of each county within the state would be elected every two years. For the first ten years, the Sheriff
of Hillsborough County was a one man job. Today, the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s officer is a full-service
law enforcement organization staffed by over 3,400 personnel.
The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office is organized into four departments:
Patrol Services; Investigative Services; Administrative Services; and, Detention Services. The Patrol Services Department
is organized into four geographic districts, each commanded by a Major. According to the Hillsborough County
Sheriff’s Office, the patrol services “consists of more than 1200 sworn law enforcement deputies.
These deputies are tasked with providing law enforcement services for the residents within the unincorporated area
of Hillsborough County. Patrol services include response to emergency and non-emergency calls for service,
traffic enforcement, traffic crash investigations, selective enforcement and community oriented policing services.”
The Detention Services Department “administers the county jail system which
has a rated capacity of 4,190 images. It is comprised of two jails and a work related facility.
The department provides processing and detention services for all law enforcement agencies in Hillsborough County.
Additionally, it furnishes staff for the secure component of the juvenile assessment center, a centralized receiving,
processing and intervention facility for adolescents taken into custody by law enforcement officers.”
