Celebrity Sightings

This article is not to brag... I am not friends with any of these people, nor would I have had the opportunity to meet them I did if I was not a police officer, at the right place and at the right time. This is just for fun so that you can see a different side of these celebrities.

Neve Campbell -I knew a man who provided security for the actress. He told me that I could go in the police car to meet her. One evening my partner and I went to her house, and buzzed the front gate. The gate opened and she came outside along with several of her dogs. There was also another woman there that I didn't immediately recognize, but then she said her name, Rachel True. Rachel was a co-star of Neve's on the movie, The Craft. We probably stayed too long but we all had a great conversation, and Neve gave us a tour of her home, and of the unbelievable back yard. She had a pool, but it was down the hill and you could barely see it. She also had a great view of the ocean. After that, I saw her several times as I drove by and waved. She was a really nice person.

Tom Cruise - I met Tom on the day that his divorce from Nicole Kidman was finalized. Our watch commander called us to the lawyer's office where it was taking place with the mission to get him out safely. When we got there we met with Tom's security team and formulated a plan to get him out safely. The paparazzo was all over the place, as you can imagine. Tom then got into his car and I spoke with him briefly about what we were going to do, and then he shook my hand and said thank you graciously. We then got him out of there and he drove up to his house, well, actually Nicole's house after that, and got him there safely.

A couple of weeks later I saw his driver and the new SUV that he had made. It was a black Ford Excursion, with only two seats in the back. There was a partition behind the driver where a 30" television screen popped up. The two seats were recliner type seats and the whole back end was meant for luxury. The SUV also had a front and rear camera that recorded while they drove to catch any paparazzi who tried to interfere with their driving.
