    True Crime Odyssey
    TGF 084 Trooper Chadwick LeCroy

    This one is personal because I knew and worked alongside Trooper Chadwick LeCroy when I was an Atlanta Police Officer. Chad and I served together in Zone 2, and later I had the privilege of working with him when he joined the elite Georgia State Patrol Nighthawks DUI Task Force. He was one of the good ones – the kind of officer you wanted backing you up, the kind of man who made the badge mean something. On December 27th, 2010, Chad was murdered during what should have been a routine traffic stop. He pulled over a broken taillight on Bolton Road in northwest Atlanta. The driver was Gregory Favors, a thirty-year-old career criminal with eighteen prior arrests and ten felony convictions. Favors fled, crashed his car, and when Chad approached on foot – without drawing his weapon – Favors fired three shots through the passenger window. One bullet struck Chad in the neck. He died in the ambulance on the way to Grady Memorial Hospital. But here's what makes this case so infuriating: Gregory Favors should have been locked up. He'd been arrested just seventeen days earlier and was out on a nineteen-thousand-dollar bond despite pretrial services recommending he be held without bail. Three times in 2010, the system said he was too dangerous to release. Three times, judges ignored those recommendations. On the morning Chad was killed, Favors missed his court hearing. He should have been in jail, but instead he was free to murder a good man. The investigation was swift – dashboard camera footage captured everything. Favors stole Chad's patrol car, dumped it on Gun Club Road, and was arrested by Atlanta PD officers. After nearly four years of legal proceedings, he pleaded guilty to avoid the death penalty and received life without parole plus fifty-five years.Chad LeCroy was the first Georgia State Trooper killed by gunfire in thirty-five years. He left behind his wife Keisha, sons Bret and Chase, and a law enforcement family that still feels his loss. A bridge over the Chattahoochee River now bears his name, and a scholarship in his memory helps new troopers get their education.This is the story of how system failures cost a hero his life, and why there really are no such things as "routine" traffic stops.In memory of Trooper First Class Chadwick Thomas LeCroy, Badge #744. End of watch: December 27, 2010.

He shares what it's really like behind the scenes in the ER, the importance of humility in medicine, and what 27 years on the front lines taught him about people, teams, and community.Listeners will hear how Dr. Ma:Discovered his passion for community-based medicine at Tri-CityServed as Chief of Staff and later Chief Medical OfficerLed and helped grow a democratic emergency medicine group and an occupational health businessWas honored 10 times as one of San Diego's Top Doctors in Emergency MedicineThe conversation dives into the financial and regulatory pressures facing hospitals today, including:How DRG-based payments and long COVID hospital stays pushed hospitals to the brinkThe impact of underfunded Medicare and growing staffing costsThe staggering costs of new construction and seismic compliance, with per-bed costs in the millionsCalifornia's 2030 (and 2033) seismic standards, and what they actually requireFrom there, Dr. Ma shares the transformational plan for Tri-City:Tri-City is entering a long-term lease and operating agreement with Sharp HealthCareThe hospital will become Sharp Tri-City, pending voter approval in JuneThe agreement brings the scale, resources, and experience of San Diego's largest not-for-profit health system to North CountyThe board's decision, he explains, reflects a commitment to put community before titles and secure a sustainable future for the districtDr. Ma paints an inspiring vision that includes:Reopening Labor & Delivery at Tri-City in partnership with Sharp Mary BirchReturning and expanding NICU and high-risk maternal-fetal medicine services to North CountyDeveloping a comprehensive cancer center on the Tri-City campus so patients can receive radiation and chemotherapy locallyA revitalized, state-of-the-art flagship medical center that drives both better health outcomes and economic growth along the Highway 78 corridorBret and Dr. Ma also discuss the upcoming public vote, clarify that no new taxes are being requested, and encourage district residents to vote YES to allow Sharp to manage and invest in the hospital.The episode closes on a personal and heartwarming note, as Dr. Ma talks about his five daughters, their life paths across California and New York, and what it's like to transition from sideline sports dad to a new season of life.If you care about the future of local healthcare, economic vitality, and quality of life in Carlsbad and North County San Diego, this episode of “Carlsbad: People, Purpose and Impact” is a must-listen.Key Topics:Dr. Gene Ma's global upbringing and medical training27 years in emergency medicine and leadership at Tri-CityFinancial and regulatory realities of running a hospitalCOVID's impact on hospital operations and financesCalifornia seismic standards and hospital infrastructureThe long-term partnership between Tri-City and Sharp HealthCareReopening Labor & Delivery and bringing high-risk maternity care back to North CountyPlans for a comprehensive cancer center on the Tri-City campusThe importance of the upcoming community voteDr. Ma's family and life in North CountyCall to Action: Be sure to follow “Carlsbad: People, Purpose and Impact” and share this episode with friends, colleagues, and neighbors who want to understand what's at stake for healthcare in our community.Quotes (for Reels / Audiograms)“The moment you think you know everything in medicine is the moment you become dangerous. You have to be humble—or medicine will humble you.”“People think hospitals made money during COVID. The truth is, it was devastating. Patients stayed for weeks or months while we were paid for just a few days of care.”“If the 2030 seismic standards were enforced today, more than half the hospitals in California would have to close. That's how expensive this is.”“There's no realistic path for Tri-City to reopen labor and delivery on its own—but with Sharp, not only can we reopen, we can expand and bring high-risk maternity care back to North County.”“One day, people won't be able to imagine a North County without Sharp Tri-City—they'll just assume world-class care has always been here.” Did this episode have a special impact on you?

    Listen to the full 40 min VAULT episode Go Directly to this Patreon Episode "Bret Is Bringing "Fck Them" Energy in 2026"  https://www.patreon.com/posts/bret-is-bringing-146883822   Picture this: a handful of rude comments, and a line that finally gets crossed. What starts as harmless online noise turns into strangers criticizing how Bret is showing up for his dad, and that's when everything shifts. The gloves come off, the patience is gone, and Bret makes it very clear what kind of energy he's bringing into 2026. It's raw, protective, and exactly the kind of unfiltered Vault moment that reminds you why some lines should never be crossed.   This story is part of The Saturday Spill series a little peek into the wild, unfiltered stuff that usually stays on Patreon. Some weeks it's hilarious, some weeks it's jaw-dropping, but it's always real life that doesn't quite fit on the regular show. If you're into a little chaos and behind-the-scenes tea, you're in the right place. If you love it, amazing…you can listen to the full, unedited version here http://Chalene.com/more
