Goodbye ‘cop friend’

The city of Miami Police Department has lost one of its best with the passing of Harvey Nairn.

I met and worked with him at countless televised events over the years and can say he was one of kindest, funniest, hardest working officers and persons I have ever known. The MPD and the city have lost one of the great ones, the man I always referred to as “my best cop friend!”

My sympathy to his family. R.I.P Harvey.

Malcolm Scott Furman,

Hollywood
