The Bakersfield Police Department has started their own videocast. Chief Bill Rector does a quick welcome video and then they've got pieces on the reserves and neighborhood watch.

The Bakersfield police will be holding a DUI checkpoint starting at 6 p.m. tonight, so make sure you don't drink and drive folks (not that you should do it when they don't have a checkpoint!)

Okay some of us may have seen the recent reports about a recent officer involved shooting. While some people don't really consider this that big of a deal. Others make a bigger deal of this than it is.

In the "Becoming a cop" series we've seen how police officers are trained. And while being trained according to the standard rules and guidelines it seems apparent to me that there are personality types that should be screened or redirected.

The Bakersfield Police Department has had their share of criticism, as many police departments do these days in California, but is it really justified? Personally I don't think so, but in some cases I do, although I have a bias in this matter. I too have been arrested under...
