The Cookeville Police Department shared a light-hearted post in their "Roast & Report" series, featuring Captain Leonard, who has been humorously referred to as the "Lord of the Cones." The social media post included a nostalgic photo of the Captain on a police motorcycle surrounded by traffic cones, prompting a playful commentary from the department's social media team.
According to the Cookeville Police Department, Captain Leonard is pictured "mid-ride looking like he just lost a bet with a retired mall cop." The department humorously noted that the scene seemed more fitting for a "cosplay for dads who peaked during the Blockbuster era" than a typical law enforcement operation. The post also jokingly mentioned Leonard's "tactical belly," visible beneath his uniform shirt.
The motorcycle also received attention in the department's post, with a comment noting that it resembled a "featured extra in a 2004 local Harley dealership calendar." While the post included playful remarks, it also highlighted Captain Leonard's commitment to preparation, including a reference to his "spare tire." The Cookeville Police Department's approach to social media aims to present officers in a relatable manner, fostering a connection with the community.
