“My hearing had been scheduled for first thing in the morning at the Peace Officer Standards and Training Council’s headquarters…the main police academy for Utah. That meant I had to go on into Sandy just outside of Salt Lake for it. Sheriff Simple said he’d come on down with me and be there through the process.
