Maurice Brunson
- Additional Crew
Maurice Christopher Brunson was a Security Professional for over 20 years. He worked both Federal Government and private contracts.
He worked in many different environments and venues including Military bases, public and private events, public school security and nightclubs.
His favorites, of all his career, were the movie and television filming locations. We worked together as a team keeping the scenes safe and letting the crew work unimpeded at their break neck speeds. He was always helpful, cheerful and vigilant.
He was so approachable there were several occasions that film stars chatted and spent time with him. One example was Billy Bob Thornton playing guitar and hanging out with Maurice during the filming of The Ice Harvest, 2005.
Many times Maurice was able to prevent serious injury or property damage by his presence and awareness of the situation.
He had been thrust into residential multifamily property when crime had began to drastically rise in the north Chicago suburbs. Working the midnight shift and hearing gunshots were some very interesting nights for any officer. Especially someone working alone.
He was a good officer and friend that would answer your call and ask how he could help.
