My cousin got married this past weekend, and her brother was not invited-or told about the event-so we are guessing that is why the cop was there. We don't know the whole story, but he was sent to St. John's Military Academy, which he went AWOL from a while ago. This child is not talked about at family gatherings, but his parents and we know better than to ask questions. A few of us cousins have contact with him on Facebook, but know better than to give him details about the wedding.
So we were standing outside talking after church and dad asked if we noticed the rent-a-cop at the back. None of us did, but we all had a feeling we knew why he was there. (if they didn't tell their son about the wedding, were they really expecting him to show up??) At the reception I noticed him, he was standing by the DJ, not far from where we were eating dinner. It was just a strange feeling, knowing that we are being watched all night. I can only imagine how the cop felt, just standing there monitoring things all night.
None of us have any idea what this kid did to make his parents hate him so much that they would not want him to attend his sisters wedding. It must have been something horrible if they felt that they needed to hire a guard to stay with them all day in case he showed up.
Now, part of me wanted him to show up to see what would happen. I mean, this guy has been through military school-what would the match up between him and a rent-a-cop be like? Guess we will never know.
I can now say that I have seen it all, when it comes to people "attending" a wedding!!
