Standup comedian Juston McKinney was a young deputy sheriff when he was frequently assigned to protect the late President George H.W. Bush which, he recalled, was an honor even though the pay wasnt exactly great. McKinney was 19 when he was hired as a York County, Maine deputy sheriff and worked as a county cop until 1997. Because the Bush familys Walkers Point compound in Kennebunkport is in York County, McKinney found himself assigned to various presidential details. I was the outermost ring of protection, he recalled. I would be in my police car at a checkpoint, along with a Secret Service agent, and if a car drove up I would have to get out of my cruiser, approach the vehicle and verify identification. So if something went down I would get shot fi owala rst, they would hear a noise and know there was a problem. But I was OK with it, because I was making almost nine dollars every hour. Big bucks.

He said he also conducted an investigation into a burglary at an Arundel boat house, where Bush stored his boat. I processed the scene, said McKinney, who has since appeared on NBCs The Tonight Show on multiple occasions and has been featured on Comedy Central. It was the end of the Gulf War, so the thought of an attack on our president was very real. |
