What is it about sex....
that makes a person throw away a career, wife and kids????
The following C&P is not a LEO bash. This police officer is/was a co-worker of mine whom I've known for 19+ years. He is a good person and is/was a good police officer. I feel bad for him, his wife and young kids. Not mentioned in the article is that Off. Davis was a K-9 officer...hence the "SUV".
Sex is awesome but has caused the downfall of many.
Look at Clinton...his legacy will be all about Monica and his philandering.
Who here does not know of someone who lost it all for sex?
What is it about sex??
Officer arrested for solicitation of prostitution
News that a Coral Gables police officer was arrested after allegedly soliciting a woman for prostitution over the weekend was met with the expected shock and embarrassment by city officials this week.
On, June 10 at around 9 a.m., while on duty Officer Alan Davis allegedly drove his marked Gables police SUV to pick up a woman who he spoken with previously from Coconut Grove to a warehouse near the Village of Merrick Park in order to have sex with her.
According to police reports, once inside the warehouse Davis, 43, asked the woman how much it would cost to have sex and then handed over $40. Davis then began removing his clothes, including his gun belt, and offered to help the woman take her clothes off.
What Davis did not know was that the woman had been working with Gables and City of Miami undercover police officers and was wearing a wire to tape record the incident.
In fact, police say that Davis has been under investigation for at least a month, after they had received another allegation from a woman that the officer had solicited her for sex.
Davis allegedly first came in contact with the latest woman on June 7.
After Davis allegedly gave the woman the money and began undressing, police then converged on the scene and arrested Davis at 4107 Laguna Street in the Gables.
He was charged with solicitation for prostitution and transporting for the purpose of prostitution. Davis bonded out of jail the same day.
After his arrest, Davis, who is married and has a family, was suspended from the city police department without pay.
"Right now we are on hold," said Gables Police Chief Michael Hammerschmidt, regarding Davis' future with the city. "We are not doing anything further until this goes through the courts,"
Although the chief said there will be a subsequent Internal Affairs investigation he said that Davis could not be compelled to give any statement since his case is now in the hands of the State Attorney.
Hammerschmidt likened the situation to a family dealing with a family member getting in trouble.
"The police department works like a family. Because of the type of work we do we rely on each other like family. When a family member gets in trouble we go through all the same feelings that anybody would - shock, dismay, disappointment and anger to a certain extent. That's just natural feelings," he said.
The chief admitted that the arrest of one of his own department's officer was considerable cause for embarrassment and was a blemish and stain to the organization but said that those feelings have already been tempered by support from city officials and the community.
"The amount of emails I've received and phone calls supporting the department lets us understand that the arrest does not take away from the job we do as a department," he said.
Mayor Don Slesnick said the incident was a double tragedy - for the officer and the department.
"Anything that happens of this order makes and impact on how the public views the police department - makes them wonder what is happening with some officers," Slesnick said. "It is definitely a public perception setback for the city and department."
The mayor said the incident was even more troubling for Davis whom he felt sorry for, whether he was convicted of the crime or not.
"Everything I've read says that he has had a long (21 year) and very good career and has served the people well. It's a personal tragedy to have put himself in that position," the mayor said.

Hey fatstrat, I just read your comment to "Afternoon Delight"...
("Well in my case (married), I have to take what I can get. And it absolutely won't be spontanious or out doors. And will have all the passion of a trip to the DMV.")
So are you saying that God wants us to stay with one woman for our whole lives , AND be miserable?
Maybe you should take a long weekend in Neveda, don't knock it till you try it!

Well, while I certainly would agree that sex is important, it's not everything. I've had relationships w/women who were far more sexually liberated than my wife. And who were not nearly as good a wife as her in other respects. I'm only miserable in one aspect of my marriage. But I guess any sex is good, just some is better than others. And it's my fault for knowing the difference.[8D] 0 -
Too many boys are out there spreading their "seed". And leaving women alone to raise their kids, with the taxpayers footing the bill. 0 -
I'd just as soon have a couple of good hot dogs. They stay with you longer. 0 -
