About Anthony

(Pictured: Anthony on patrol in 2020)

 

     Anthony Weaver has been a police officer for 23 years and currently works for a police department in south central Pennsylvania. Prior to his current department, he served for 20 years with the Lancaster City Bureau of Police in Pennsylvania, retiring from that department as a Sergeant. During his career with Lancaster City he received numerous commendations and awards for Valor, Bravery, Life Saving, Officer of the Year, and Outstanding Enforcement related to numerous arrests of armed suspects. He served the majority of his career in the patrol division. He also served as an officer and later as a Sergeant, on the Selective Enforcement Unit (SEU). This unit's primary focus was on street level drugs and the violent crime it brought to Lancaster City. During his time on this unit he was part of a team that was responsible for hundreds of arrests and thousands of felony charges that had a direct and positive effect on the safety of Lancaster City.

     During the last couple of years with Lancaster City, Anthony became increasingly concerned about how the social justice movement and political leftism were negatively impacting law enforcement and it's mission, especially within urban jurisdictions. In 2020 Anthony felt a strong calling to retire from Lancaster City and, among other things, pursue launching a podcast in support of law enforcement and it's mission. In addition, and most importantly, Anthony is a Christian who believes that our only hope in these troubling times is in Jesus Christ. His purpose for podcasting comes from a desire to promote law enforcement in light of Biblical truth, to help people better understand the profession and it's mission, and to stand against the increasingly negative narrative that is being leveled against law enforcement.
