There's this guy.
He loved getting into fights and also started fights.
If you wanted a punch to the face, tell him to "calm down". (Not kidding.)
But nobody ever went to the cops because of this, because, hey, you don't snitch.
That means, his police-file is squeaky-clean, despite his taste for beating up people.
I have recently heard that he's a cop now.

That's how much an official record is worth.
