Dear Officer,
Dear Officer, I met your family recently. They all speak very highly of you. But what I want to know is, where were you? You spent decades serving as an officer of the law but I only met you once, why is that? Where were you? I met you in the middle of the night. I was naked, you brought me out a t-shirt to wear.
