October 21, 2006 (FPRC) -- Police-Writers.com, a website dedicated to police officers turned authors, added five police authors, Steve Copling, Larry McMicking, Ronald M. Schunk, Patrick Babby and Charles W. Sasser.
In July 1980, Steve Copling joined the Plano Police Department (Texas). During his career, he has worked a variety of assignments including Field Training, Crime Prevention, SWAT, School Liaison, CID, Narcotics, and Professional Standards. He was promoted to sergeant in March of 2002 and has supervised patrol, CID, and SWAT. He was promoted to lieutenant in February of 2005 and currently works in the patrol division.
Steve Copling’s two “police procedural” novels feature homicide Detectives Greg Rush and Rick Chinbroski investigating murder in the city of Plano, Texas. According to Harriet Klausner, an Amazon reviewer, “This is an exciting police procedural serial killer cat and mouse tale. The story line is fast-paced with the readers feeling the tension as Greg assumes he is the final target of this quartet of homicides. Fans of edgy thrillers will want to read this tense tale.”
Larry McMicking is a retired New York State Police Officer and retired from the U.S. Marshals Service. His book, “A Guide To Protecting Your Home, Business and Your Person from Assault, Burglary, Fire and Fraud,” was written to assist and educate the general public of the dangers of fire, burglary, assault and fraud in everyday life. Emphasizing actual events, Larry McMicking covers a multitude of areas such as security at the ATM, preventing rape, fire hazards such as combustion, extension cords, and space heaters. He also emphasizes the dangers connected to smoke detectors and electronic burglar alarms and demonstrates how a home or business burglar alarm system may fail.
A special deputy and school resource officer for the Dearborn County Sheriff’s Department, Ronald M. Schunk, is the author of mystery novel “Retreat.” A veteran of the U.S. Air Force, Ronald M. Schunk has been a volunteer, reserve or part-time police officer for the Dearborn County Sheriff’s Department, Sunman Police Department, Milan Indiana Police Department, Addyston Police Department, Colerain Township Police Department and Hamilton County Ohio Sheriff’s Department. In addition to his reserve, volunteer and part-time police work, Schunk has owned his own business and retired from ATT&T after 32 years.
Patrick Babby is an 18 year veteran and active police officer for the Wilmington Police Department. He has written two books: “Fly Fishing for Trout on a Budget” and “True Stories from my Life as an Angler.”
Charles W. Sasser has been a full-time freelance writer/journalist/photographer since 1979. He is a veteran of both the U.S. Navy (journalist) and U.S. Army (Special Forces, the Green Berets), a veteran and former combat correspondent wounded in action.
