Being a daily news reporter a lot of the breaking news that has to be written for the on-day edition is crime-related. The unfortunate reality of our country is that there is always crime to report on, a lot of it quite difficult to write about, however, for all the bad being done, there are a lot of people doing good to combat it. I have dealt extensively with police spokesmen at provincial and national level as well as a number of security companies, private investigators and community watch organisations.
