Not sure why you need to focus on the police part. Why not notice that he comes from a family that has a huge reputation in education? For example, Nikolay Middle School in Cambridge is named for his uncle, I think.

Either way, sounds like he has a rich resource to build upon.

At least he was a cop at one point. I hear they need them in Milton.
