    So Larry Bolden was the police officer? Uh-huh. And I remember that as a kid. He would come by the house. I remember Spears. The policemen then, they walked in the neighborhood. I remember that as a kid. The policemen walked in the neighborhood and they would talk to the men in the neighborhood. The men in the neighborhood would either be working in the yard -- on Saturday mornings they would either be working in the yard or working on somebody's house. And the police would come through and they would talk to them. And they were like friends in those days. They were like friends to the people in the neighborhood. I remember that because they used to walk down the neighborhood. And I remember Spears. My momma and Larry being cousins, he used to come to the house even on his off day, whenever.
