Everyone from the clerks, advocates, to detectives happily answer questions and go above and beyond what's required. The facility is a repurposed old school, but it's functional. After all, it's a police station so it doesn't have to be pretty. I love that they hold the Tree of Remembrance Memorial for the community every year. After formalities, there's singing, poetry, and lite bites. MPD top leadership also attends and provides direct contact information to demonstrate their commitment to closing cases. Hopefully you have no reason to visit, but if you do- rest assured that they will make every attempt to accommodate.

My family and I were given a tour of FBI headquarters as well as a good two dozen other people…read morethanks to going thru our respective congressman. The FBI give a tour called the FBI experience. Our tour was led by two agents, one a retired agent another was currently active. It starts off at their gift shop, where you can get lots of FBI branded items (pens, pencils, jackets, shirts, etc) and then goes into exhibits on their academy, goes over the different professions in the FBI, the FBI academy, goes over its history from foundation till modern tones, and goes over a few famous cases in its history. The exhibits were created by the Smithsonian and yes they were pretty cool, but they lacked something human interaction. I get they created this so everyone can go about their own pace, but people I believe and certainly my family and I came because we expect more than just a self tour at a museum. We had two agents accompanying us, who only really spoke to us at the beginning of the tour to talk to us briefly about the academy and to give up a pitch about working at the FBI by talking about the different types of professions there is in the Bureau. I think if those two agents led the tour and explained it to us, step by step everyone would have better enjoyed it. Firstly, some of the information in the exhibits your going over may go over the heads of most people. You use terms like metadata, does everyone know what that is? You talk about Ponzi schemes, money laundering, racketeering... do people understand what that entails? In the section where it talks about the cases, reading a few paragraphs about what happened is no where near as effective as having the agent explain the case and what the FBI did to catch the bad guys. The FBI has an almost mythic status in the minds of people. When people hear the FBI is investigating, they think omg well the bad guy is screwed now. Use that... people want to hear and learn how cool you guys are, what you guys do to keep them safe every day. Was it amazing to take part in this tour? Yes! Could it be better though? Definitely! Still, I am thankful to the FBI for allowing all of us to be part of the FBI experience...and I am thankful to my congressman, Carlos Curbelo for making this happen.

While driving in D.C. recently, my lane ended abruptly and was diverted into what looked like…read morewrong-way traffic. Confused, I hesitated a moment too long and hit the traffic island with one of my rear tires, which flattened immediately. Thankfully, there was a small pullout area nearby, so I drove my hobbled car into it and called Triple A, which immediately put me "on hold." A knuckle rapping on my driver's window alerted me that there was an officer outside my car. I rolled down the window, sure I was going to get a ticket. "Are you okay, ma'am?" he asked. I told him that I was on my way to pick up my boys at a nearby hotel and take them to the train station. I had to be there at the hotel in 20 minutes or they would miss their train. I could still hear the muzak coming from my phone and knew that AAA would never make it in time, so blurted out, "You can't fix a flat tire can you?" Much to my surprise, this kind man did exactly that--in mere minutes. The officer knew his way around a car like nobody's business. His manner was respectful and chivalrous. He had me up and rolling within ten minutes. I am forever grateful to this lovely soul for his generosity of spirit and his skills as a police officer and as a tire technician. This story has an even more important element as one of my sons is autistic and any change in plans can cause him to spiral into behaviors that make it difficult for everyone. So, the officer saved the day, quite literally. I've sent a letter of commendation to the Chief of Police.

How about the one poor woman taking payments all the way in some decrepit room with the ceiling crumbling down in silence by herself, poor thing. The only place where there seemed to be any life was the background clearances waiting room. It surely had to be the smallest room in the building with the heat blasting only in there and the 12 seats crammed in there of course filled up so overflowing with people into the hallway. I chose to stand out there from the beginning of an empty room because it was that stifling and uncomfortable. Surely it quickly becomes smelly and is likely to make people sick being so close to one another. At least add some chairs outside the room in the hallway! I just want to bring them all something of cheer if I ever have to go back, but hope I never have a reason to be there again.

There was no signage indicating that leaving the waiting area for 15 minutes meant I would not be seen. I don't blame the people here for finding any excuse not to do their jobs and help people out, seeing as how understaffed they are, and considering their working conditions. The interior of the building looked like an abandoned high school out of a horror movie.

A female was laying on the ground having a medical emergency and two hero MPD police officers were there to save her life! She was convulsing on the ground and close to unconscious. It was a heartbreaking and gut wrenching sight, I felt so bad for her but so relieved and grateful that the two police officers were helping her! They put on gloves and followed all proper protocol to deliver emergency medical assistance. Their hearts are tremendous. I'm 100% certain that the poor woman's life was saved thanks to our heroes and this is just one example of all the amazing work the Metropolitan Police Department does every single day!

It's like night and day how each station is operating in this area. The female cop even yelled at a guy asking a question while holding his young daughters hand.
