From a young age, "Andy" wanted to be a police officer.
But in 2021, after 15 years on the job, he quit. Andy wrote about his decision in the r/OffMyChest community on Reddit — a choice that left him "half-heartbroken and half-relieved".
In this episode, Andy talks about the ethical dilemmas that led him to leave law enforcement for good.
