Parolee Attacks While Dressed As Cop, Attempted Assination On Mv Stop, Cops On Being Filmed

In this episode I chat with retired Officer Eric Hofstein. 
Eric started his career with the Contra Costa Sheriff's
Department and finished with the BART Transit Police (San
Francisco).  Eric has some great stories from his career
from both agencies.  His book, What Doesn't Kill You:
One Cop's Perspective on Homelessness, Mental Illness, and
Addiction, is availible for purchase with the link below.

When Eric Hofstein changed his career path, he didn’t expect to
meet hundreds of lost souls, many of whom were desperate to be
found. Here he shares what he learned about how the people he met
became homeless, what kept them on the streets, and how to help
them improve their lives. He learned what true harm reduction is,
and how to manage his expectations and not center himself in his
outreach work. Now retired, Eric is compelled to give voice to
those whose stories inspired him so that others can be inspired
in turn.
