Local Detective News Letter Interview

{linespac: 1.5}Q. Do you find that your wife frets when you go out on a dangerous case?
NN. Yes, she will not kiss me goodbye, but waits to kiss me hello when I return.
Q. Have you ever turned down a dangerous case?
NN. Yes.
Q. Would you care to share this event?
NN. Not really.
Q. Did your prospective client complain?
NN. Not when I referred him to a friend of mine, an ex-seal with the Navy.
Q. Have you ever needed to use your service revolver?
NN. Yes, I shot and killed a smuggler that took me by surprise when I was investigating a tip off that illegal vehicle parts from Taiwan were being shipped to the Oakland Port in shipping crates.
Q. Was there any backlash about the fatality?
NN. Nothing official, but the local police bugged me about it for months.
Q. How many criminals can you remember putting in Jail?
NN. Well, I don’t make arrests, usually, but I do have that power, but the police don’t like it., Naturally, they would like to be credited for collaring outlaws. Off hand, I would venture a guess that I have bought over two-hundred citizens with sins on their souls to courts of law.
Q. Does your income pay your bills adequately?
NN. Now, what kind of question is that? I never discuss money with anyone except my wife and clients.
Q. I’m sorry; I believe our readers would find your pay interesting.
NN. Move on.
Q. When do you plan on retiring?
NN. Not until I‘m seventy four or five. Some of the detectives in the association have done their best work in their seventies.
