Insp Roy Teague Bio
Inspector Roy Teague served six years in the British Army, completing operational tours in both Northern Ireland and Bosnia before embarking on a distinguished policing career spanning more than twenty-six years across two police forces. Throughout his career, Roy has led a frontline existence working on emergency response, proactive teams and the elite Firearms Operations Unit of West Midlands Police as an Authorised Firearms Officer and both an operational and Tactical Firearms Commander, where calm judgement and decisive action are demanded in the most dangerous of circumstances. Many of these operations have led to the arrest of some of the country’s most dangerous armed criminals. He has also led protection details for some of the country’s most important figures including members of the Royal Family and Parliament. He has been awarded numerous commendations for bravery including one from a Chief Constable and another from a High Court Judge at the Old Bailey in his own attempted murder trial. His career has been built on evidence, discipline and an unwavering pursuit of the truth. Yet it is another skill that has taken him into territory few police officers have ever explored. A world just beyond our own – a place where mankind has no jurisdiction – where reality rides a razor thin seam between fact and impossibility – the world of UFOs, and the paranormal. In the perplexing field of unexplained studies, where hard evidence is often elusive, credibility remains the cornerstone of serious investigation. Roy’s reputation for professionalism and discretion enabled him to earn the trust of those trained to observe, question and report facts. That reputation opened the door to one of the most remarkable investigations of his career: interviewing more than 250 serving and retired police officers about their own encounters with unexplained aerial phenomena and paranormal events. Officers with nothing to gain and everything to lose finally broke their silence describing extraordinary close encounters involving missing time and alleged abduction experiences. The officers spoke because one of their own was asking the questions —and because they knew they would be treated with professionalism, respect and without ridicule. That research culminated in the publication of Close Encounters of the Police Kind, a unique investigation unlike any before it: law enforcement interviewing law enforcement about a phenomenon that has remained hidden behind the badge for decades. Blending the rigour of criminal investigation with first-hand testimony from experienced police officers, Roy offers readers a rare glimpse into a world where the unexplained collides with those sworn to uphold the law.
