TO PROTECT AND SERVE?
I like cops. They risk their lives to do a great service and by and large are among the most heroic breathers out there. But we’re all aware of the one bad apple theory, and sadly, today’s subject is slowly rotting to the core.
Ladies and gentlemen, submitted for your approval, one Detective Andy Bellefleur.
Once a proud member of Bon Temps’ finest, Andy’s fallen in a bit of a bad spell lately, what with a body being found in his squad car, numerous (unofficial) citations for public drunkenness, and an unsolved murder caseload that seems to be growing by the moment. But it doesn’t end there. Apparently now Detective Bellefleur can’t even handle a simple noise complaint.
This evening (last night for those of you reading this in daylight), I was enjoying a quiet evening at home when I couldn’t help but overhear a nearby party. Like it was in my living room. I’ve never met this neighbor (I believe her name is Maryann), and without a standing invitation I was powerless to enter the home to ask for quiet. My only alternative was to call the police, and learned I wasn’t the first to issue a complaint. But they assured me Detective Bellefleur was hot on the case.
Apparently Andy didn’t get the memo, because after several hours it had only gotten louder. Another call to Bon Temps police led to the revelation that Andy had arrived some time earlier and the noise would go away ‘any moment now.’ If by ‘any moment now’ they meant right up until I crawled into my coffin at daybreak then yes, the detective’s task was completed in full.
Nice work, Andy. Real nice.

Just how long will it be before they fire him? If ever. I wonder how fast would he have acted if the complaint had come from a human man or woman?

” I wonder how fast would he have acted if the complaint had come from a human man or woman?”
Why do minorities always pull this card? You coffinbedders should be thankfull for the rights you have been given so freely.

I’m not even a vampire Richi… Do I have to belong to a “minority” to care for the rights of others?
Do have a happy 4th of July.

Bah.
Humans can be so…irritating.
I wonder why our kind decided to mainstream in the first place.

It would figure someone such as he would wallow in his own self pity to indulged himself on intoxication.
Pathetic.

I say it’s about bloody time (no joke intended) vampires mainstream. My question is, why the hell would you come out in the south…what a horrid place. New York has much better people and hiding spots from the sun. Plus…our cops arent idiots like Andy. They really should fire him, he’s like the dumb, drunk uncle in your family, he’s around and doesnt do much except make you laugh once in a while.

While I don’t condone most of what Andy thinks is right,I do feel bad for the guy.You can tell he’s trying so hard to be a “real” detective.I just had to say that and as for that neighbor of yours,Maryanne,I’d be careful with her.She doesn’t seem right.

We didn’t just come out in the South….it just seems that way because a lot of attention is focused on Bon Temps

In the words of Liam, “Mainstreamin’s for pussies.’” I, wholeheartedly agree.

How can you not like Andy? Thats just crazy talk.

I’ve lived in both the north and the south. The north isn’t better, it’s just colder.

Give poor Andy a break. He even said himself when Bud took him off of the murder case that beign a cop was the “only thing that he does.” Maryann probably felt bad for him and invited him to join the party, and with the rumors about Maryann going around (I heard that she is a Maenad - a devotee of Dionysis and a promoter of the Baccinailan lifestlye) Andy just may have fallen prey to her witchy ways.
