Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This enhanced digital edition of U.S. Marshals: Inside America's Most Storied Law Enforcement Agency features 6 videos of exclusive interviews with former U.S. Marshals sharing their incredible stories plus discussions with authors Mike Earp and David Fisher. Blending history and memoir, retired U.S. Marshal Mike Earp—a descendant of the legendary lawman Wyatt Earp—offers an exclusive and fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the most storied law enforcement agency in America, illuminating its vital role in the nation's development for more than two hundred years. Mike Earp spent his career with the U.S. Marshals Service, reaching the number three position in the organization's hierarchy before he retired. In this fascinating, eye-opening book, written with the service's full cooperation, he shares his experiences and takes us on a fascinating tour of this extraordinary organization—the oldest, the most effective, and the most dangerous branch of American law enforcement, and the least known. Unlike their counterparts in the police and the FBI, U.S. Marshals aren't responsible for investigating or prosecuting crimes. They pursue and arrest the most dangerous criminal offenders on U.S. soil, an extraordinarily hazardous job often involving gun battles and physical altercations. Earp takes us back to the service's early days, explaining its creation and its role in the border wars that helped make continental expansion possible. He brings to life the gunslingers and gunfights that have made the Marshals legend, and explores the service's role today integrating federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies in the hunt for the most notorious criminals—terrorists, drug lords, gun runners. Setting his own experiences within the long history of the U.S. Marshals service, Earp offers a moving and illuminating tribute to the brave marshals who have dedicated their lives to keeping the nation safe.

Download or read book One Marshal s Badge written by Louie McKinney and published by Potomac Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2009 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many people are familiar with the U.S. Marshals Service’s reputation from frontier days, when legendary lawmen such as Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson enforced the Wild West, the agency’s modern exploits are less well known. One Marshal’s Badge sheds light on the service’s valuable role in current national and international affairs through the intriguing figure of Louie McKinney, the agency’s former director. McKinney’s life is an inspirational story of personal fortitude and professional achievement. Growing up a sharecropper’s son in the segregated South, McKinney rose to become the first career deputy to lead the Marshals Service. Prior to his promotion, McKinney contributed to the agency in many groundbreaking ways, including helping to restore order to the skies after a rash of airline hijackings in the early 1970s; guarding prisoner John Hinckley, the man who attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan, as a yearlong assignment; transporting criminals to trial and to prison in his own car before the creation of Con Air; enforcing the integration of Southern public schools as a black deputy marshal; and heading an innovative sting operation that netted hundreds of fugitives by enticing them with free football tickets. One Marshal’s Badge offers a rare glimpse into the Marshal Service’s inner workings, especially its witness protection program and elite SWAT team, and is an eyewitness account of the social turbulence that defined American history in the late twentieth century.

Download or read book Forging the Star written by David S. Turk and published by University of North Texas Press. This book was released on 2016-08-15 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What do diverse events such as the integration of the University of Mississippi, the federal trials of Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa, the confrontation at Ruby Ridge, and the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina have in common? The U.S. Marshals were instrumental in all of them. Whether pursuing dangerous felons in each of the 94 judicial districts or extraditing them from other countries; protecting federal judges, prosecutors, and witnesses from threats; transporting and maintaining prisoners and detainees; or administering the sale of assets obtained from criminal activity, the U.S. Marshals Service has adapted and overcome a mountain of barriers since their founding (on September 24, 1789) as the oldest federal law enforcement organization. In Forging the Star, historian David S. Turk lifts the fog around the agency’s complex modern period. From the inside, he allows a look within the storied organization. The research and writing of this singular account took over a decade, drawn from fresh primary source material with interviews from active or retired management, deputy U.S. marshals who witnessed major events, and the administrative personnel who supported them. Forging the Star is a comprehensive official history that will answer many questions about this legendary agency.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The manuscript, Hunting Criminals to Hiding Them, My Journey to and with the United States Marshals Service, is the story of my career working with the oldest federal law enforcement agency, the U.S. Marshals Service. I begin with my childhood years in Chicago, Illinois, and discuss my three dreams and goals of playing professional football, serving in the military, and becoming a police officer. I was able to accomplish two of my goals - serving 25 years part-time in the military, while simultaneously working for the Markham Police Department and then the U.S. Marshals Service. My family and several good friends are briefly mentioned, including my fugitive partner, and a longtime military colleague and friend. I talk about various phases of my career climbing the ladder in the U.S. Marshals Service, including serving as a Chief Inspector in the Prisoner Services Division to my historic appointment as the first African American Deputy Marshal to be promoted to the Senior Executive Service as an Assistant Director. My journey discusses significant achievements I made protecting federal judges and federal court facilities. The main focus of the book is my love of hunting and arresting criminal fugitives, and subsequently spending the last nine years of my U.S. Marshals Service career working diligently to hide and safeguard them in the Witness Security Program. I discuss a number of cases I worked on and made arrests for. I also mention major enhancements I implemented for the Witness Security Program including the establishment of International Symposiums on Witness Security, partnering with INTERPOL and other international organizations. Lastly, I write about my travel around the globe assisting countries to establish or enhance Witness Protection Programs in efforts to maintain and preserve justice.
