Rounding Up the Mischief-Makers in Alaska: Doug Fifer, Anchorage P.D. (ret)

Doug Fifer is a 25-year veteran of the Anchorage P.D. He's seen his share of homicides, suicides, financial scams, and sexual deviants. In this episode, we learn about the unique challenges of working in law enforcement within a large, sparsely populated, rugged environment such as Alaska. Few jurisdictions have to deal with 1600-pound grizzlies, towns inaccessible by road, near-perpetual darkness in winter, snowfall measured in feet, and a pandemic of alcoholism. Doug Fifer will take us along with him to discuss hostage negotiations, homicide investigations, death notifications and more. He has recently authored "Fifty Shades of True Crime."
