Realistic with a cop this slick?


Nick Frescia looks good. Expensive suits ,Rolex, slicked back hair. He would be suspected of being on the take faster than a New York minute. I hardly think any copes looked like this in the 80s.

The Pat Riley look had its followers.

The current governor of California sports the same look.

I think Miami Vice, the hit T.V. show of the 1980's, also played a role selling the audience that a vice cop can look dapper.

A cop in LA might be a little different than typical. So close to Hollywood and all its influences.
