As a former Chicago cop, Nowicki knows the streets. A detective who worked his way up to chief of police, Nowicki understands the larger problems of law enforcement including the socio-political realities.

Ed Nowicki received an award from the U.S. Treasury Department given for individual achievement in law enforcement. As a recognized expert, and a trainer of law enforcement professionals from coast to coast, Nowicki has been called to testify on subjects ranging from police training to self defense and the use of force, even in high-profile trials such as Rodney King's.

Nowicki's national line-up of guests gives his listeners full access to law enforcement issues that make up Americans' daily headlines. As an author himself, he is as comfortable with Joseph Wambaugh as Ann Rule, and as an experienced criminal justice professional, he can make the legal issues central to the famous trials of our day, understandable and exciting.
