Lou Pimber: The Life of an Undercover Officer and PTSD Advocate/Author of Breaking Badly

Send us a text


Lou tells about living in a garage growing up, smoking cigarettes
while watching Scooby Doo AND by age 11 seeing someone stabbed
along with women beaten by pimps. He then recalls the moment he
knew he wanted to be a police officer along with what pushed him
to serve in US Army. 


If you have seen the movie, “Colors” featuring Robert Duvall and
Sean Penn. Lou was like Penn’s character in real life with the
Arizona State Gang Task Force. Being undercover forced him to
grow up. Lou admits being addicted to the rush of this position.
What is the difficulty of not allowing a criminal to dictate the
pace of an investigation? 


A graphic story of the extent drug dealers will go to hide drugs
and get them to their destination. Complacency can not only get
you hurt but killed, Lou retired medically after sustaining
career ending injuries during an undercover assignment. 


His PTSD went deep and dark, Lou explains all he went through,
what he found to help get past it, and what he does today.
Traumatic experiences that law enforcement face and their
difficulty managing them. 


As an entrepreneur, what did he do with that garage he lived in
as a child? Being an actor, his own series; “Duress” and being in
Jay Dobyn’s short film; “Big Red Friday.” Pimber’s thoughts on
what leads to success, what breaking badly means to him, losing
his identity, and did he write the book for him or others?
COPLINE, what it is and how it serves officers.
