    Edward Hope

    eBook
    Warning: Police Officers will not like this book.Around half of all stop and searches are unlawful but the paperwork would suggest otherwise. Like to know why?Why are crimes of Harassment so complicated to investigate?Do you know your rights when dealing with the police?Have you been the subject of an unlawful search?What happens if I'm suspected of a crime?What happens if I'm being harassed by someone?These and many more questions will be answered in this book.After a career in the military, Edward Hope spent around 18 years as a police officer in Northumbria and Cumbria Constabularies. Most of his career was spent in front line uniform policing duties, but also spent time in CID, sneaked around in plain clothes on pro-active crime teams, was a community police officer twice, a tutor constable and completed short attachments in an Intelligence unit, dedicated interview teams and in a communications centre as a call handler. Edward was also an acting Sergeant on a couple of occasions.Early in his career he received a Chief Constables commendation for bravery when he and a colleague tackled and arrested an armed robber who had just committed a robbery in a local store. In 2005, he was nominated as Cumbria Constabularies Community Officer of the year and received a presentation from the Secretary for Policing MP Hazel Blears. In 2012 was commended by Cumbria’s senior crown court judge for his investigation skills after the successful conviction of males involved in a sex attack. For this he received another Chief Constables Commendation.Edward’s later career became untenable when he began to challenge some of the subculture practices described in this book. Setting out to whistle blow, he managed to capture evidence of lying when he surreptitiously tape recorded a meeting and then took the evidence to his professional standards department. Rather than holding those involved to account as he expected, Edward faced a wall of resistance, nepotism and cover ups that led to disciplinary action against himself. Edward felt forced to cut his own career short after twenty five years pensionable service and retired in 2016. He now lives in North Yorkshire where he enjoys the outdoors with his two Border Collies.

    Around half of all stop searches are unlawful, but the paperwork would suggest otherwise. Want to know why? Why is investigating Harassment so complicated? Do you know your rights when dealing with the police? Have you been the subject of an unlawful search? What happens if I'm suspected of a crime? What happens if I'm being harassed by someone?

  • Rattlin: The Reefer

    Edward Howard

    Paperback (Forgotten Books, )
    Excerpt from Rattlin: The ReeferIN the volumes I am going to write, it is my intention to adhere rigidly to the truth - this will be bond fide an autobiography - and, as the public like novelty, an auto biography without an iota of fiction in the whole of it, will be the greatest novelty yet offered to its fastidiousness. As many of the events which it will be my province to record, are singular and even startling, I may be permitted to sport a little moral philosophy, drawn from the kennel in Lower Thames-street, which may teach my readers to hesitate ere they condemn as invention mere matters of absolute, though uncommon fact.Let us stand with that old gentleman under the porch of St. Magnus's church, for the rain is thrashing the streets till they actually look white, and the kennel before us is swelled into a formidable, and hardly fordable brook. That kennel is the stream of life and a dirty and a weary one it is, if we may judge by the old gentleman's looks. All is hurried into that common sewer, the grave! What bubbles float down it! Every thing that is fairly in the middle of the stream seems to sail with it, steadily and triumphantly - and many a filthy fragment enters the sewer with a pomp and dignity not unlike the funereal obsequies of a great lord. But my business is with that.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
