Behind the Shield
by Arthur Niederhoffer
Niederhoffer points to a Denver police officer just out of the academy and learning the ways of the profession. First begins a free cup of coffee, followed by free cigarettes and thus begins the process of erosion. The rookie learns from the old-timer how to wait at the end of the bar for the bartender to approach with free cigarettes or perhaps even a bribe.
