The retired Chief Superintendent, Joe Jackson is considered one of the best detectives the world has built. He has solved the most complex crimes and served severe evil with justice.
In one of his greatest feats during a chase for a hardened criminal called Mone, Jackson said: “Had the situation occurred, we would have opened fire. Mone showed no remorse and took great delight in telling us what he had done that evening. He made my blood turn cold.” Joe was a no-nonsense official.
