Joe Forrester background

Joe Forrester

Joe Forrester, a tough-as-nails beat cop, patrols the gritty streets of Los Angeles.

Joe Forrester, a policeman, chose to walk a beat rather than sit behind a desk or wear a suit and tie to investigate crimes. He believed that being close to the community he was protecting allowed him to do his job better. As a uniformed officer, Joe dealt with everyday crimes like robbery, runaways, drug pushing, and arson, rather than more serious offenses like murder and rape.
