Book excerpt: The Salt Lake City Police Department placed Officer Eric Moutsos on administrative leave for voicing his conscience. They broke their own policies, leaking info to the media in an attempt to tarnish his good name, and ultimately took his badge and gun. The public was misled. Were there ulterior motives for their treatment of this award winning cop? Rumors circulated, after he became vocal in support of constitutional rights, that he was merely being insubordinate, yet nothing negative was ever written in his personnel file prior to his taking a stand. He had the audacity to expose corrupt practices within the department during his time on the job, and since. He challenged those practices and paid dearly for it. This book is based on the true story leading up to and following the destruction of a good officer¿s career ¿ a circumstance that played out in global media. This book is about issues as big as the US Constitution. It is about what American society will and will not tolerate. It is about loving those with differing opinions, while maintaining one¿s convictions. It is about opening a dialogue that will lead to a better tomorrow. This book is about fundamental problems plaguing police agencies across the Nation, problems that lead to tension between citizens and those who are sworn to protect and serve them. This work deals with police actions often misinterpreted as racism, but which actually stem from a system of quotas. It exposes the funds for numbers dilemma and the complications inherent in such a system. This book is Dispatched: Conscience or Conformity.
