You continue to do what's best for you and your family! Believe it or not you've had a great impact on law enforcement as a whole. Don't sell yourself short on the good work you've done Mr.401!

I remember watching your channel when it was just a POV of the inside of your car lol. It went a long way from there. Even though you stepped away it’s nice to hear you’re doing good still.

Hard to believe you have been on YouTube for so long. Back then it was just you driving around in your car giving great advice, which you still did up until your last videos. I can recall aspiring to be a LEO when I was going through elementary school and watching your videos. Just graduated University and am just at the tail end of my application process to be a cop. Wishing you all the best Jake in this new era of your life + career!

As much as I miss your videos I’m glad you’re doing well and taking needed time away from YouTube. I’m in the middle of the police hiring process myself and have rewatched your academy videos over and over and over. I’ll be sharing my graduation pics eventually when the time comes! Good to hear from you man

From the 404 to the 401 I hope you’ve been great, I miss the vlog days back in high school! I graduated in 2018 and loved learning about my state! You’re the man!

I was wondering, not long ago, if I had accidentally unsubscribed and stopped seeing your videos, but didn't remember to check. Good to hear everything is well! Enjoy the new era!

You just popped into my head the other day and I realized how much I missed your videos. I'm glad you're doing well and alive. If you ever decide to come back and make videos, I know I'll be excited. But if you dont, I'm just happy knowing you're happy. God bless

I thank God you are alive, well and enjoying life! Thank you for your videos, LEO and civilian relations and outlooks are better because of them! It’s ultimately your call if you return or not, you deserve to move on/ take it easy. Just know you will always have a lot of people ready to hear from you.

I remember watching your videos you filmed with the go pro on your head in your Charger. I was in high school and I so badly wanted to be a cop. Now I'm about to go to law school. Thanks for the content and stay safe.

I honestly miss you sir. I've been watching you since I was around 10 and can attribute my current law enforcement career to you. I watched so much of your videos which gave me an insight to the good and bad of law enforcement and I would be lying if I said you didn't have a big part in me becoming a cop. I honestly wish the best for you and your family and hope you are doing so well in life. Thank you for the knowledge and stories. You helped me become the Officer I am today.

It took me forever to find your channel and kept thinking for a week what your channel was. I’m like how did I forget and what happened to that YouTube cop? Some how it clicked 401! Would be great to hear your thoughts on todays world but honestly you have highlighted and called out todays climate before it got to where it is now. Well cheers brotha! Keep kicking ass

I'm glad you put out this post - nice to know all is still good with you. I'm sad there will be no more videos from you, but I am grateful for all the ones that you made and are still available for people to learn from. So long, 401. Thank you for all that you've done. I hope you have a long and happy life filled with success and love.

I started watching your videos 7 years ago when I was applying everywhere. Now I'm 6 years in to my career and have done it all. I appreciate your videos in helping get to where I am at today.

officer401
Hello everyone! I know it's been a long time and I hope you're doing well. I randomly decided to check some threads regarding Officer401 and saw some pretty crazy rumors being started by people on Reddit with a little too much time on their hands that are way too obsessed with me apparently.
1) No, I didn't die in the line of duty.
2) No, I didn't get fired. I've never been fired from any job I've had lol.
3) No, Mrs401 and I did not split up lol.
Any other rumors about my personal life, or people saying they're friends with my neighbors, etc etc is all completely false. The truth is, I needed to move into a new era of my life, and decided to stop making videos. It's really that simple and boring. I loved YouTube but it was time for me to depart and move on. It was getting way too stressful, and I felt like the content I was putting out was starting to become sub-par. For that reason, I felt like stopping when I did would be a good idea, as I didn't want to put out bad content. I'm so appreciative for each and every one of you that followed me through the years, and please know I had an absolute blast doing it. I STILL get police academy graduation pictures from you guys and I love it, so don't stop that! I love being apart of your law enforcement journey. :)
This will be my last post for a while. I just wanted to clear the air and let you guys know not to believe these clowns on here making things up as they go. They have no power in real-life so talking trash on the internet makes them feel big and bad I suppose. There's a lot more interesting things going on in the world other than me, so I'm not sure why the hate, but rest assured I'm about to go right back to enjoying what a nice day it is. :)
Much love to everyone in the 401 community!!
