They beat and robbed gangsters of their money and drugs and lived a life of crime under the cover of the law. Tune in June 22nd to see how the story unfolds!!!

    I took a criminal justice class in college taught by a former crash officer. He taught us many different things cops do including how they search etc. I learned a lot from that guy but I was an active addict. I could say that what I learned helped me in my criminal career but after serving 3 state bids and doing time in 5 states out west, down south and here on the east coast...Massachusetts. these videos are helpful to me because sometimes my mindset pulls me back into that CRAZINESS.. this story in particular is helpful as a reference point to go to when I feel like going out and doing something stupid... thank you to everyone involved in making positive changes and helping get the word out there through social media.

    Kudos to this officer for taking responsibility for hisself, for righting his wrongs, for learning from his mistakes, and moving forward, giving back again, to others. And now to you, Big Herc! What great editing done here! Love how you inserted those little visual shots. That REALLY added a lot of bang to your video! Great stuff here, folks!

      Too much corruption in the highest places of authority. For over 12 years now the United States military has been guarding the poppy fields of Afghanistan, guaranteeing the flow of heroin into the world. When corruption exists that high up in power and authority, what are regular people supposed to do. It's sad that people think the Bible is the solution. We choose the good parts and ignore the bad instructions in the book. Read the whole thing! People will say you're lying. The bible doesn't say that. But it does! Too much trust in fellow man and a belief that one group has the right to rules the rest of us. Priests rape children and STILL! The Catholic church and priests are respected.

    He keeps saying being heartless and less compassionate made him tough, but he got it twisted. Remaining compassionate and staying true to who you are in the face of kinds of evil is true toughness. It's easy to become what you see it's hard to stay you.

      He didn't get it twisted, you know what he meant. He's not trying to have a spiritual debate. If you're out there dealing with the most ruthless gangs day in and day out, then you better be what you have to be. Try bringing that moral high road out there to the streets and see how long you last. I'm not saying you're totally wrong, but if that's your mentality, you better not sign up for what he did, you better be the kind of tough he's talking about

    Ruben Palomares is an interesting man with a harrowing past. I'm glad he made this documentary because a lot of people, current cops, ex-cops, and aspiring cops need to see it. That accumulative PTSD that cops and army soldiers have is some serious business that needs to be addressed, and not treated like some annoying training technique.

    That's L.A. inner city culture in the 80's and 90's, especiallyin the Pico-Union district, even normal square civilians were on some gangster shit, we feared the gangs, so we were armed as well, all we were trying to do was not get killed, defend our families, protect our belongings, and be able to go to work everyday, but sometimes gangbangers were too much, you'd have to end up blasting back! I kind of don't blame this dude for doing what he did!
