Send us Fan MailNobody likes a bully! One of the reasons myself and many others became cops was to protect those who couldn't protect themselves. That's what cops should do! But, what happens when your own sheriff's department turns on you and becomes the bully? What do you do when your bosses and teammates turn on you? Where do you turn?My returning guest today, former Sheriff's Deputy Bridget Truxillo, was a sheriff's deputy in Florida for years. She worked undercover in the narcotics unit and was also the department's first and only female SWAT operator. Unfortunately, she was the victim of workplace harassment, bullying, and discrimination. She just ‘took it' until her own department drove her to resign. Bridget Truxillo went on to the next chapter of her life and became an attorney. That firsthand experience is why she founded Lady Law Shield, a firm built specifically to give law enforcement officers and first responders legal guidance on the employment issues they run into at work — things like workplace disputes, retaliation, and the fallout that can follow difficult decisions made on the job. Bridget works at the point where the job and the law collide, helping officers protect their careers while making sense of a system most attorneys don't understand from the inside. This conversation takes lots of unexpected twists and turns that I think you will find useful if you are a cop or if you want an insider look into the confusing and sometimes cruel world of law enforcement. It was a treat talking to Bridget again and hearing her amazing story of resilience and how she is of service to the law enforcement community.In today's episode, we discuss:·      Bridget's beginnings in law enforcement.·      What her rookie year looked like. ·      Being brought into undercover work after only having one year on the job.·      How and why she tried out and earned a spot on the SWAT team.·      How was she treated being the only female on the SWAT team? ·      Being the victim of workplace harassment and discrimination and how she dealt with it.·      What led to her decision to resign from law enforcement? ·      How can we as cops transition from being a cop to civilian life seamlessly? Is it possible?·      What she sees as the biggest mistakes cops make transitioning into civilian life.·      Her work as an attorney, founding Lady Law Shield, helping first responders who are victims of workplace harassment and discrimination.All of this and more on today's episode of the Cops and Writers podcast.Visit Bridget at her law firm, Lady Law Shield.Check out Bridget at the following conferences!Rise: Women in Policing | San Diego | September 2026 Tuesday, September 8, 2026 to Friday, September 11, 2026.

Send us Fan MailThe hardest part of getting help in public safety is not finding resources, it's knowing who you can trust when the stakes are your career, your reputation, and your sanity. We pick up part two with employment attorney Bridget Truxillo to talk candidly about where union support shines, where conflicts of interest can quietly derail you, and why an outside employment law perspective can be the difference between getting steamrolled and getting a fair process. We dig into the nuts and bolts that too many first responders never get taught: reading your policies, protecting your rights in internal affairs investigations, and understanding how body worn camera policy can shape what you're allowed to review before an interview. Bridget also shares how real change can happen long before a lawsuit, including putting agencies on notice and forcing policy updates that protect an entire department, not just one person. If you work for a government employer, we also talk about why suing the government is different and why strategy matters. From there, we connect the legal side directly to first responder mental health. We unpack why confidentiality is the lifeblood of therapy and employee assistance programs, what questions to ask a therapist about privacy, and how stigma still shows up in hiring decisions and leadership culture. The thread running through everything is simple: asking for help is not weakness, it's how you stay in the fight without losing yourself. You can find Bridget at https://ladylawshield.com/about-usIf you got something from this conversation, subscribe, share it with a coworker, and leave a review so more first responders can find it when they need it.Support the showYouTube Channel For The Podcast

Send us Fan MailA career can end without a single bad call. Sometimes it's the station politics, the paper trail, and the quiet retaliation that do the damage and it can hit your mental health just as hard as anything on the street. I sit down with Bridget Truxillo, an attorney, former deputy sheriff, and former SWAT team member, to talk about what happens when the workplace becomes the stressor you can't escape. Her story runs from patrol to undercover narcotics to SWAT, and then straight into the kind of employment problems most first responders hope they'll never face.We get specific about what it's like being the only woman in a specialty unit, how “equal standards” can turn into unequal scrutiny, and how a culture of write-ups and rumors can push someone out of a job they once saw as a lifelong calling. Bridget shares why she built Lady Law Shield, and why she treats career protection as part of a larger first responder wellness plan. We also talk about trust and confidentiality, and why privileged communication matters when you're afraid that speaking up will come back to you.Then we dig into the practical side: unions versus employment lawyers, what unions usually handle well, and where they typically cannot help with discrimination, harassment, or retaliation claims. Bridget breaks down why reporting in writing matters, how strict EEOC and state deadlines can be, and why waiting too long can permanently limit your options. If you're in law enforcement, fire, EMS, corrections, or dispatch and work is starting to feel consuming, this conversation gives you a clear next step and a way to breathe again.Find Bridget at LadyLawShield.com, and if this helps, subscribe, share the episode with a teammate, and leave a review so more first responders can find it.You can find Bridget at https://ladylawshield.com/about-usSupport the showYouTube Channel For The Podcast

She spent two and a half years watching the guys around her get away with the exact same mistakes that were landing her in someone's file — and the whole time, one thought kept running the show: I don't want to be that girl.Attorney and former undercover narcotics deputy and SWAT operator Bridget Truxillo joins Marie to talk about what staying quiet actually costs women in predominantly male industries — the discipline nobody talks about, the exact legal line between "a jerk being a jerk" and illegal discrimination, and the thirteen years it took her to stop protecting everyone else's comfort but her own.This one covers how to tell if what's happening to you is actually illegal (and what to document if it is), why "everybody already knows" is never the same as it being on record, and the leadership habit — six praises for every one reprimand — that changes whether people actually hear you.Listen if you've ever decided not to make a big deal out of something that's already been quietly costing you for years.

In this episode, I sit down with Bridget Truxillo, a former Deputy Sheriff, SWAT officer, undercover narcotics detective, and now employment attorney and founder of Lady Law Shield. Bridget shares her remarkable journey from serving on the front lines of law enforcement to advocating for first responders across the country. She opens up about the challenges she faced as the only woman on a SWAT team, what ultimately led her to law school, and why she felt called to continue serving those who protect our communities.We also talk about the hidden mental and emotional toll that law enforcement officers carry, the warning signs of burnout, and why seeking help should never be seen as a weakness. Bridget offers practical advice for current and future first responders, shares how Lady Law Shield is helping officers navigate workplace challenges, and reminds us why supporting the people who serve others matters now more than ever. Whether you know someone in law enforcement or simply want a better understanding of the people behind the badge, this conversation is filled with insight, compassion, and hope.To connect with Bridget, visit https://ladylawshield.com/Want to be a guest on Life Stories Podcast?

140 - How is Filing a Complaint a Mental Health Tool - with Bridget Truxillo Most first responders think of complaints as paperwork, politics, or career-ending decisions—not something connected to wellness. But what if staying silent is actually what does the most damage? In this episode, Conrad Weaver sits down with attorney and former law enforcement officer Bridget Truxillo to explore the hidden psychological cost of toxic leadership, workplace discrimination, and the fear of speaking up. Early in her career, Bridget became the only female member of her agency's SWAT team and served in undercover narcotics. But years of discrimination and a hostile work environment eventually drove her from the profession she loved. She never filed a complaint. She simply resigned—and the agency lost a dedicated officer it had invested years training. Today, Bridget is the founder of Lady Law Shield, a law firm dedicated exclusively to protecting first responders. Drawing from both her experience behind the badge and in the courtroom, she explains why unresolved workplace conflict doesn't just affect careers—it affects mental health, families, and entire agency cultures. Conrad and Bridget discuss: Why toxic leadership can be as damaging as traumatic calls The mental health consequences of remaining silent When filing a complaint is appropriate—and why it can be an act of self-preservation Fear of retaliation and how to navigate it Workers' compensation, Brady/Giglio concerns, and other legal realities every first responder should understand How leaders can create cultures where accountability strengthens trust instead of destroying it Whether you're a police officer, firefighter, dispatcher, corrections officer, EMS professional, or agency leader, this conversation offers practical legal insight while challenging the belief that speaking up is a sign of weakness. Sometimes protecting your mental health isn't about walking away. Sometimes it's about finding the courage to make your voice heard.   https://ladylawshield.com/   +++++   Need Help?

Send us Fan MailShe's back!! Returning all the way from SEASON 2 - Bridget Truxillo!This episode of Sirens, Slammers and Service is one every first responder needs to hear. We sit down again with Bridget Truxillo—attorney, former SWAT and Undercover Narcotics operator, and founder of Lady Law Shield—for a no-filter conversation on protecting your career, your mental health, and your future. ⚖️

One impulsive grab on a porch. One traffic stop where a cop tries to police “respect.” One sloppy decision that feels small to the officer and massive to the citizen. That's the thread we pull in this conversation, because the real story isn't just viral clips. It's how police culture, ego, and training gaps turn ordinary moments into complaints, civil rights claims, discipline, or worse.We sit down with Bridget Truxillo, founder of Lady Law Shield, a former Florida deputy sheriff with a background in patrol, undercover narcotics, and SWAT who now represents law enforcement and first responders in employment and workplace disputes. We talk candidly about what it's like to be an active cop on social media, why public records and transparency come with the job, and how quickly the “Monday morning quarterbacking” turns into career consequences. Bridget also explains what she looks for when an officer crosses a line, and why immediate self-reporting and supervisor intervention can turn a mistake into a fixable training moment.From there we get into women in law enforcement, real-world safety, fitness standards, and why communication skills can prevent more uses of force than raw strength ever will. We also hit constitutional law training, Brady/Giglio confusion, and whether AI in law enforcement could help officers interpret rules faster without creating new risks. If you care about police accountability, body cameras, de-escalation, and building public trust without throwing good cops away, this one is for you.Subscribe for more, share this with someone who argues about policing online, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway: what training should every cop get every single year?send us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.comPeregrine.io: Turn your worst detectives into Sherlock Holmes, head to Peregrine.io tell them Two Cops One Donut sent you or direct message me and I'll get you directly connected and skip the salesmen.Support the showPlease see our Youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/c/TwoCopsOneDonut Join our Discord!! https://discord.gg/BdjeTEAc *Send us a message! twocopsonedonut@yahoo.com

On today's episode, Dennis speaks with Founder of The Lady Law Shield and Protective Wellness, Bridget Truxillo. Bridget knows the challenges law enforcement officers face, both outside and inside their agencies based on her experiences as a former Deputy Sheriff in Gainesville, Alachua County, Florida. Bridget started out in Patrol, but very quickly transferred to the  Narcotics and Organized Crime Unit (NOCU), and also became the only female member of  the SWAT team. During her time in the NOCU, Bridget routinely conducted undercover buys of narcotics and effectuated many arrest and search warrants as a result of her undercover operations. While on the SWAT team, Bridget participated in serving search warrants, active shooter and hostage situations, competed twice in SWAT Round-up International  (an International SWAT competition), as well as many hundreds of hours of training. Although being a Deputy Sheriff allowed Bridget to serve the public, Bridget realized she wanted to find a way to serve the law enforcement and first responder community directly so she left law enforcement to attend law school as a means to glean the knowledge and skills necessary for this purpose. After 13+ years practicing law in civil litigation, Bridget was able to curate a unique business dedicated to representing and supporting law enforcement officers and first responders. Today, Bridget and Dennis discuss tips for woman in law enforcement, importance of departments looking out for their men and women, seeing, validating and hearing your fellow co-workers, not taking things personal, legal advise and not controlling the nature of the job.

On today's episode, Dennis has Bridget Truxillo, Founder and CEO of Protective Wellness, back on the show. Bridget knows the challenges law enforcement officers face, both outside and inside their agencies based on her experiences as a Deputy Sheriff in Gainesville, Alachua County, Florida. Bridget started out in Patrol, but very quickly transferred to the Narcotics and Organized Crime Unit (NOCU), and also became the only female member of the SWAT team. During her time in the NOCU, Bridget routinely conducted undercover buys of narcotics and effectuated many arrest and search warrants as a result of her undercover operations. While on the SWAT team, Bridget participated in serving search warrants, active shooter and hostage situations, competed twice in SWAT Round-up International (an International SWAT competition), as well as many hundreds of hours of training. Although being a Deputy Sheriff allowed Bridget to serve the public, Bridget realized she wanted to find a way to serve the law enforcement and first responder community directly so she left law enforcement to attend law school as a means to glean the knowledge and skills necessary for this purpose. After 13+ years practicing law in civil litigation, Bridget was able to curate a unique business dedicated to representing and supporting law enforcement officers and first responders. Today, Bridget and Dennis discuss the right way to deal with harassment in the work place, sex in the workplace, having an exit strategy if and when you're in a toxic work environment, taking control of your situation, owning up on your mistakes and following the right leaders.

Bridget Truxillo spent 4 1/2 years working in law enforcement before deciding to leave the profession to become a lawyer. Bridget's story unfortunately, is not a uncommon one for female officers in this profession. She really opens up to tell of the unfair treatment she received while working as the only female on the department's SWAT team at the time. The thing about Bridget's story is that, despite the bad taste the experience left in her mouth, she still loved the profession and wanted to work in other ways to help the men and women of the profession. And that led her to what she's doing today... Working as a attorney supporting and representing law enforcement officers.
