About the Oberlin Police
Department The
town of Oberlin is the parish seat of Allen Parish, in the US state of Louisiana. As of the 2000 census, the town had a population
of 1,853.
According to the book description of
The Aquarius Conspiracy it “is a history lesson of turbulent political years of the early 1970's,
particularly in New Orleans, where at Southern University in New Orleans and Baton Rouge, political rising was shaped. Evidently,
public opinion was such that no political significance was given to blacks in New Orleans. The facts tell us that there was
evidence of such a revolutionary movement, which in the story, is called the Black Liberation Front (BLF). Detective Danny
Cocchiara and his new black partner discover that they share a common culture, and then, with candor and humor, they learn
how to work together in a period of racial tension. This suspenseful story ends only when Major Cocchiara confronts the Archbishop
of New Orleans, who then unravels the mystery.”
According to the book description of Freeze! A Guide to Safe Travel
in the United States, it “was conceived by Dr. Wade Schindler when he was called as an expert witness in a notorious
trial involving the death of a young Japanese exchange student in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The young student, Yoshi Hattori,
looking for directions to a party, approached a home and was killed by the homeowner, Rodney Peairs, who mistakenly thought
the youth was attempting to enter his home. Because of the language barrier and not being familiar with U.S. customs, Yoshi
Hattori did not understand when Mr. Peairs shouted out the commonly used American term, "Freeze!"
Dr. Schindler developed the idea of a guidebook for the foreign traveler to the
United States-a guidebook that would go beyond the ordinary travel guide to give visitors to this country insight into ways
of protecting themselves from the all too common criminal attacks in the United States. The book discusses every aspect of
safety from living arrangements to travel by automobiles, planes and trains, as well as how to sightsee and shop safely. Dr.
Schindler has been involved in law enforcement and private security for many years. A professor of criminal justice and criminology
at Tulane University in New Orleans, Louisiana, Dr. Schindler is a nationally recognized expert witness incases involving
self-defense, law enforcement and security matters.”
