Hi. I’ve never written a blog post before. It’s something I usually have my secretary do because she’s more tech savvy than me. The biggest tech I deal with is my cameras for surveillance. But you all want to know about me, right? That she can’t really write about.
So, here we go. My name is Paul Boulder and I’m a private investigator in the Glass area. I’ve done a lot of work over the years to help families stay together, but also it sometimes ends in a split. I did want to be an officer with GPD, and was even in the academy with Detective Ellison.
But, as it does, shit happens. Both of my parents got sick, and as an only child and the only family in the area, I had to step away and step up to take care of them. They both died, within hours of each other. I broke. I couldn’t function. At all. I thought going back to the academy would be a great distraction from the pain and loss, but it wasn’t. I got through academy and lasted about six months before the grief swept me away.
I ended up doing odd jobs, office work – anything to make money and keep living. It was all I could do to keep my head above water and focus on life and not contemplating my own…well. I’ve put that in the past. There’s nothing to do about it anymore, and I’m a strong person who doesn’t take shit.
That led eventually to becoming a P.I. I knew I could never be a cop. I’m too old to start at the bottom like that, and I don’t want to be some administrative paper pusher when what I love is law and law enforcement. So I opened my firm and started taking jobs. Ell will tell you that I’m ‘one of the good ones.’ For the most part I stay out of active police investigations, unless somehow they cross paths with my own investigations.
The case of the Glass Creek Murders is a bit unique though. There’s so much going on. I can’t give you specifics because, well, because. At the moment, any client I have may be connected to this case. Whether it’s marital problems or helping to correct a good kid gone bad, I feel like there’s going to be a connection somewhere, somehow, at some point.
I don’t know what else to tell you. That’s really just it unless you want like baby pictures and stories or something. No? Okay. Well. Thanks for listening.
