“I worked with the NYPD for 20 years, and, in that kind of work, you see the worst evil that you can imagine,” he said. “You’re seeing a lot that most people, thankfully … don’t have to see.”
The former cop recalled one night when he was still on the police force. He was called to the scene of a building where a woman was threatening to jump.

As a brand new Christian, he was on fire for God, so when he saw the woman pacing back and forth with disheveled hair, he said, “Ma’am, God loves you, and this isn’t what He would want for you.’”
He said the woman chillingly turned to him in an otherworldly voice and said, “God doesn’t even know who you are.” DeFlorio immediately paused, stunned to observe both the voice and the jittery nature of the woman’s eyes — something he has now seen many times.
“When I started getting into this field and God, I believe, calling me into this, there’s something about the eyes,” he said. “There’s a blackness and an evil that, again, you really can’t describe unless you see it and I saw it in that woman’s eyes.”
