Retired Lt. Col. Jerry Leyshock takes us back to his days as a narcotics detective in 1980s St. Louis, when an undercover drug buy in the Clinton-Peabody Projects quickly turned into a situation where he knew he had to be on his toes. A ghost-town housing project, a warning that it was "hot," and a walk into a high-rise where several armed men were waiting. This is what undercover narcotics work looked like back in the day. #SLPOA #JerryLeyshock #SLMPD #StLouisPolice #Narcotics #Undercover #PoliceStories #PoliceHistory #LawEnforcement #StLouisHistory #TheBrighterSideOfBlue #TBSOB #RetiredCops
