Russ Tourangeau Bonus Episode

The Muster Room

Sergeant Russ Tourangeau of the Carroll County Sheriff’s Office is originally from Orange County, New York, where prior to graduating high school he witnessed a heroic justified officer-involved shooting. During his college years, Russ would take the Baltimore City Police exam, which would forever change the course of his life. While attending the City of Baltimore Police Academy, one of Russ’s classmates was nearly killed by a single, negligent, accidental gunshot to the head by an academy instructor. Russ, being a certified EMT, jumped into action and is credited with saving his classmate's life. Eventually, Russ would have to testify in a criminal case against the same instructor in a jury trial.
