For his great love: drug cop from New York now postman in Munich | Regional

Munich – He was one of the toughest cops in New York. Until he listened to his heart…

For more than 17 years, John (39) worked in New York with the “Vice Squad”, a special unit of the US police. As an undercover cop, he infiltrated the gangs of New York and put drug lords and pimps in jail. Every day was a matter of life and death. Show feelings, his real self? None!

Then came October 2016: “I met friends. They introduced me to Marie (41) from Germany – and she enchanted me! That smile and her resolute manner!” They had a long-distance relationship between New York and Munich for a year, then it was clear: John would move to Germany.

Everything for love!

He gave up his life-threatening job on the streets of New York and looked for something very safe – at the post office! Ex-Cop John to BILD: “I’ve been sorting the mail in the Munich mail center since 2018. Compared to back then, it feels like I’m on vacation.”

Caps instead of balaclavas, postcards instead of drug packages!

His past catches up with him only once a year: at the Oktoberfest. There the former sniper always shoots the main prize for his sweetheart even after the sixth beer at the shooting gallery.
