As
mentioned in the Driver's Corner, David Coes is employed with the Norfolk
Division of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. The FBI originated
from a force of Special Agents created in 1908 by Attorney General
Charles Bonaparte during the Presidency of Theodore Roosevelt, and has the following core values: rigorous obedience to the
Constitution of the United States; respect for the dignity of all
those they protect; compassion; fairness; and uncompromising
personal and institutional integrity.
An important part of the FBI's activities are their Community
Outreach programs. Since 1988, the Norfolk FBI Division has
been involved in the Drug Demand Reduction Program (DDRP), a
national program in which the Norfolk FBI works with the community
to reduce the demand for illegal drugs in Hampton Roads. One major
annual event, the Race Against Drugs, combines high-speed racing
on Hampton Roads waterways with the drug free message. This
national drug prevention program, sponsored by the FBI, the
National Child Safety Council, and 21 of the nation's largest race
organizations, allows sponsoring agencies, race promoters, and
drivers to join the FBI in alerting children, teenagers, and their
parents about the dangers of illegal drug use.
