Det. Warner was an outstanding detective. Classic old school detective. He was quiet but had a quirky sense of humor. Prayers for his family.
Here is another one who made us a great place to work.
He was old school and knew how to police.
They used to have an obstacle course at in service where you ran in and around the cones. I remember Paul doing it one year with a cigarette in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other. R.I.P. Paul
Paul was a great guy.Nothing rattled him. I remember a time I was at Grady working a B.S. shooting when I was notified of an assault case in the pediatric ward. When I arrived, there were two doctors telling me they had a critical case of child sexual abuse. Myself and the doctors watched as the 3 year old slowly died on the treatment table. You know I have watched numerous people die of violent injuries but never a young child.I was in shock. Back then Youth and Sex crimes detectives handled these types of cases. Was I ever so happy to see Paul Warner because I knew Paul had the expertise to handle the case properly.Child abuse cases takes specialized skills. Paul had those skills. R.I.P Paul
R.I.P.. my old friend. Go with GOD.
