Driveway

and it is time for me to begin my commute. Finally, I say goodbye to my wife and with a hug and a kiss, I begin on my way. As I turn my key in the ignition, the engine of my car roars to life.

Unfortunately, not all of these sounds are so pleasant, I also hear the wind rush by and the tires…

I went with the North County Mission of Hope, which is a spiritually-based humanitarian organization. The Mission of Hope works to help improve the lives of the needy in Nicaragua with programs involving…

I responded to 7425 Candlelight Court where I met with the resident, Gary Oakely. I was able to review the security camera footage which revealed at approximately 3:30AM a small extended cab pickup was observed pulling out of the victim’s driveway. This vehicle was parked directly in front of the victim’s car. Due to camera angle I was not able to observe any persons exit this vehicle or in the area of the victim's car. Due to poor image quality I am unable to determine the exact make/model…

countless hours of babysitting since I was 13 and endless hours clocked in at work, I finally had a car of my own, and I couldn’t have been happier.
