DOUBLE TROUBLE

   Many of the officers at the Naples PD had so much fun in the cop business that, after they retired, they went to work for the Collier County Sheriff's Office. They were, after all, still young and could work long enough at the CCSO to get another retirement.

 It was a good deal for both. The cops got an easy transition into an agency they already knew and the Sheriff got Deputies who were experienced, trained, and proven veterans.

 A few Deputies, went the other way: from the CCSO to the NPD. We'll feature a few of these Double Trouble cops from time to time.

   

At the top right is Chester Keene. Chester, after doing the two hitches, still had enough energy left over to give me considerable assistance with this blog and write an occasional article in the Naples Daily News.

 

Next is Ken Ferrell. Ken did his time and now, never tired of risking his life, climbs mountains. Or runs up them. Pike's Peak, stuff like that. He also works at The Phil.

Third down is Richard Davidson. Richard went from NPD to CCSO to security at Naples Community Hospital. I heard he was still working there.

 

Then we have this poor, young, innocent soul. He climbed through the ranks to Chief of Police, then Naples City Manager, then moved on to the CCSO. I understand he's still there. What was his name? Oh yeah, Rambosk. Kevin Rambosk. Sheriff Kevin Rambosk.
