I have been retired for four years after 32 years with the Hamilton Police Service. Peter has been in Major Crimes for a number of years. His dedication, hard work and compassion are second to none. He is beyond capable and he is an excellent investigator. I worked as a Special Constable in Court Security for 25 of my 32 years and I was able to witness first hand how Detective Sergeant Thom dealt with all aspects of his position. He treated everyone with dignity and respect. He was always kind and pleasant even under what I am sure was unbelievable pressure. 

He was extremely respectful to the family and friends of the victims of the many cases he was investigating, and I can personally attest to the fact that in my position I never saw Peter lose control with an accused person. I cannot say enough good about him as a Police Officer or as a person. I have never done this before, but Peter deserves to be honoured this way and I hope you will agree.
