Profile photo for Alvin Decker

I overheard a woman asking a man to kill her husband. First and only time I told my wife to shut up. She knew I was listening to someone in the booth behind me. I didn't believe what that woman said. I had to look at the guy. I didn't know how yet so I stood up and removed my sweatshirt and looked at him. He knew I heard and he winked. WTF did that mean? He’s got to be a cop. Or is he not? Dilemma here.

I proceeded to the bathroom to call the police. This was a cop and he knew. I had my phone out to dial the police and he walks in and shows me his badge. I HAD to study it. It was real, but at the time I was thinking it's stolen. We talked fast. He said, “Trust me, don't ruin this. I got her on tape. You’re on the tape now, too. Watch when we leave.” I'm stunned at this point.

Long story short, he paid for their meal and as they left, she was converged on in the parking lot and arrested. Damn, my own personal TV show lol. I almost ruined it trying to do the right thing.
