How do ordinary people become dangerous extremists? Former FBI agent Scott Payne infiltrated America's most violent hate groups and reveals their playbook. What We Discuss with Scott Payne: Scott Payne worked as an undercover FBI agent infiltrating various extremist organizations, including white supremacists like the KKK and accelerationists such as The Base, which aimed to trigger societal collapse and establish a white ethnostate. Accelerationist groups differ from traditional white supremacist organizations in that they don't believe in political solutions, but train for violence and "Boogaloo" (race war), preparing with tactical gear and weapons while planning attacks on infrastructure and targeted individuals. During his undercover work, Scott encountered disturbing rituals and behaviors, including a goat sacrifice during which members drank blood and took LSD as part of a neo-pagan ceremony associated with white supremacist ideology. White supremacist recruitment often targets vulnerable individuals from broken homes who are seeking belonging and connection, with online platforms like Telegram and Gab serving as recruitment grounds where extremist content can radicalize disaffected youth. Deescalation and communication skills proved to be Scott's most valuable tools throughout his career. His experience shows that even in hostile environments, the ability to talk through situations and remain calm under pressure is often more effective than physical confrontation — a skill anyone can develop and apply to their own difficult interactions.

Happy New Year, we welcome you back to Light ‘Em Up!This is our 2nd installation of our brand-new 6th season! A double dip this month.Who's listening to us in Mozambique? We're actively being downloaded in 117 countries, globally!On this no holds barred, explosive, investigative, educational episode — we once again, shine the antiseptic light of the truth as we deliver this in-depth investigation that is focused on de-escalation of aggression as it relates to law enforcement activities.We ask rhetorically, “Who will police the police”? Oversight of law enforcement is necessary in the 21st century.In Latin this phrase translates to “Quis custodiet Ipsos custodes”. Literally, it means “Who shall guard the guards?We hear the term “de-escalation of aggression” so often now-a-days.What does it really mean?In theory, de-escalation training has been widely implemented by U.S. law enforcement agencies in the wake of adverse public reaction to a rash of recent controversial police use of force (UoF) incidents.George Floyd, Michael Brown, Breonna Taylor, Philando Castille, Eric Garner, just to name a few.How is it effectively put into practice on a daily basis, or is it really being employed or implemented regularly, at all?The essence of de-escalation involves:— Engaging the person with empathy and reserving judgement— Maintaining a calming presence and— Setting limits, but picking your battlesOur learning concepts for this episode include:Educating you about the essentials of the de-escalation process that can aide you at:— work— home (in your interpersonal relationships) and— in the mean streets— We take a close up look at: Graham v. Connor | 490 U.S. 386 (1989) as it applies overall to the de-escalation process.And:Examine the origins of “officer induced jeopardy” and the ground-breaking ICAT training (Integrating Communication Assessment & Tactics) for the purposes of de-escalating a situation.And:The “comply or die” mentality that often plagues these high stress encounters with the public – especially and disproportionately encounters with individuals of color.“Officer induced jeopardy” is often the culprit in many violent encounters with the public. An officer can't pick a fight — end it with bullets and then claim self-defense — but they do this with regularity.This is the essence of officer induced jeopardy.We'll examine the Miami Beach, Florida Police Department's body worn camera (bwc) video footage of the recent arrest of U.S. Olympic sprinter and bronze medalist in the Summer Paris Games, Fred Kerley, and the high profile, rough arrest of Miami Dolphins star wide receiver, Tyreek Hill.And examine the Akron, Ohio Police Department's shooting of Jazmir Tucker, a 15-year-old high school freshman — with a high-powered assault rifle.You'll hear the exclusive audio of these high-profile arrests as we share the fact pattern in these cases as our case studies.Tune in to hear all of the explosive details.Follow our sponsors: Newsly, Feedspot.

In June 2020, Indian and Chinese forces engaged in a deadly clash along their disputed border in the Ladakh region. It was the deadliest confrontation since the 1962 war. Subsequently, bilateral ties between India and China deteriorated to their lowest level in decades. In recent months, however, China-India ties have begun to thaw.Last October, India and China struck a border patrol deal. Indian Prime Minister Modi and China's leader Xi Jinping subsequently met at the BRICS summit in Kazan—their first meeting in five years. That was followed by a round of talks by their top officials just a few weeks ago.To discuss the status and trajectory of India-China relations, including how the second Trump presidency and other geopolitical developments are likely to influence that relationship, host Bonnie Glaser is joined by Dr. Tanvi Madan. Tanvi is a senior fellow in the Center for Asia Policy Studies in the Foreign Policy program at the Brookings Institution. She is author of the book “Fateful Triangle: How China Shaped U.S.-India Relations During the Cold War.” Timestamps[00:00] Start[01:45] October 2024 Border Patrol Deal[06:40] Impetus for Stabilizing the Sino-Indian Relations[10:50] Assessment of Wang Yi-Ajit Doval Meeting [15:26] Reviving Confident-Building Measures (CBMs)[20:30] Overstating the Thaw in Sino-Indian Relations[25:54] Bilateral Trade Volume and Economic Relations[31:58] India-China Relations Moving Forward

The number of escalations happening after leaders speak is rising. Quickly, certain people claim that "no one can say anything anymore" in today's times. To what extent does the right to the Freedom of speech apply to leaders and where are the limits to it? Niels Brabandt discusses the issue in this week's episode.

The waters, as well as the rocks, reefs and submerged shoals of the South China Sea are a major source of friction in East Asia. In recent months, tensions have flared between two of the claimants – China and the Philippines – over Second Thomas Shoal, a submerged feature in the Spratly Islands, which the Chinese call Ren Ai Jiao. In 1999, the Philippines intentionally grounded a Philippine Navy transport vessel called the Sierra Madre on the reef and since then the outpost has been manned by a small contingent of marines.In 2016, an arbitral tribunal established under the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea ruled that Second Thomas Shoal is a low-tide elevation located within the exclusive economic zone of the Philippines and therefore sovereignty belongs to the Philippines. No other country can legitimately claim sovereignty over the feature or the waters around it. Beijing doesn't recognize the ruling, even though it was legally binding on both China and the Philippines.Late last year, Chinese Coast Guard and maritime militia vessels began aggressively interfering with the Philippines' routine missions to deliver supplies to the Filipino forces on the Sierra Madre. On several occasions, Chinese ships have used high-pressure water cannons and rammed Filipino boats. The most serious confrontation took place in mid-June, when the Chinese used axes and knives to damage multiple Philippine vessels. A Filipino navy sailor lost his thumb in the skirmish. Negotiations between Beijing and Manila in early July produced a provisional arrangement, and the Philippines subsequently successfully conducted a resupply operation. It is uncertain whether the understanding will hold, however, since Beijing and Manila publicly disagree about what has been agreed upon.To discuss the situation at Second Thomas Shoal and China's approach to the South China Sea, host Bonnie Glaser is joined by Zhang Feng, a visiting scholar at Yale Law School's Paul Tsai China Center. His research focuses on Chinese foreign policy, international relations theory, and international relations in East Asia.

Welcome to this bonus episode of the Cops and Writers Podcast. A little while ago, my good friend Kathleen Donnelley approached me asking if I would give a presentation to the Rocky Mountain Mystery Writers Association regarding Verbal Judo. How can I turn down a good friend and a chance to talk? One minor hitch. I'm not an instructor of Verbal Judo or some kind of Verbal Judo guru. After some self-reflection, I recalled the thousands of times myself or other cops on the street used Verbal Judo (or whatever they are calling it today) and I thought I could talk about that. Here are some of the talking points.-Flashbacks to being in the academy in 1995 and receiving Verbal Judo training. -Props to Dr. George J. Thompson who literally wrote the book, Verbal Judo, Updated Edition: The Gentle Art of Persuasion. -Attending an eight-hour class given by Dr. Thompson.-Sometimes you can say things the right way and say the right things, and the incident can go sideways in the blink of an eye. -People would rather be asked than be told.-People prefer options over threats. -The history of law enforcement and de-escalation. -Some quick and easy ways to avoid fights or confrontations.

There's polarization, and then there's toxic polarization. We all know what that feels like, especially at this moment around Israel and Palestine. For many of us, the temperature of the rhetoric is so incendiary that even though we might have deep and nuanced feelings, let alone education, experience, or personal ties to the issue, the thought of wading into what seems like a totally polarized conversation feels frightening and pointless. But, we still want to be able to engage in our world, and maybe even dip our toe into conversation with people we believe to be well-intentioned, even if their views might seem extreme or uninformed to us. But how can we do that without turning up the temperature and the volume by adding our voice? Thankfully, Rabbi Rachel Schmelkin is here to help. Rabbi Schmelkin specializes in navigating toxic polarization and crossing divides. In this episode, she helps us understand what's happening to people–including ourselves–when we encounter or engage in polarized or potentially polarizing topics, and reminds us that we have choices in how–and if–we engage.TERMS: Havdalah: Hebrew for “separation”, the Havdalah service marks the end of Shabbat and the return to the "normal" week.Rabbinate: The office or function of being a rabbiMotive misattribution: Assuming that the motivations of others are negative in a situation where we would accept our own motives as perfectly reasonable. This is related to motive asymmetry, where people assume the motives of those on the other side of a conflict are diametrically opposed to ours, creating an intractable conflict.Musar (or Mussar): A movement to use Jewish ethics, as opposed to rules, to guide behavior and character. Mussar facilitators use these principles to guide challenging conversations. Sacred Value: A value that is impervious to material incentives to change.Backfire effect: Digging in on an existing belief in response to information that disproves it.4-7-8 breathing: a breathing technique to reduce anxiety where one inhales for a count of four, holds the breath for a count of seven, and exhales for a count of eight.Beginner's Mind: A mindset that releases any previously existing knowledge or conceptions to allow for maximum curiosity and openness, approaching like a total beginner on the topic.b'tzelem Elohim: Hebrew for “in the image of God”, it refers to all humans being created in the image of God and therefore being of equal value.ken y'hi ratzon: Translated as “let it be so”, it literally means “let it be God's will”MORE: One America Movement: https://oneamericamovement.org/ *Quick disclosure: The One America movement is a catalyst partner of Stand Together, which is my employer in my day job.

Two weeks after a terror attack by Hamas, and two weeks into a devastating retaliatory bombing campaign by Israel, thousands of lives are gone, and the world wonders how and when the horror might stop. There are calls for a humanitarian pause. A ceasefire. Deescalation. It seems impossible in the moment, but then, it usually does.So today, a brief history of ceasefires, peace deals, and other quests for a pause in a deadly conflict—and an explanation from a longtime observer of how they come together...or don't. How far away might a ceasefire be now? What needs to happen? Who brings what to the table? How can Israel possibly back down now?GUEST: Dr. Randa Slim, Director of the Conflict Resolution and Track II Dialogues Program at the Middle East Institute

With thousands of policing agencies scrambling in recent years to change use of force policies and provide 'deescalation' training to their officers and millions if not billions of dollars being spent to provide this training, do we know if it is even making a difference to impact officer performance on the street? Interestingly, despite widespread promotion and proliferation of deescalation training, no research has empirically demonstrated that this training is reducing use of force frequency or severity in the field. In addition, it is unknown if these policy reactions and unproven deescalation training programs are having unintended negative consequences that may increase injuries to officers or citizens. In this fascinating and instructive interview, we speak with Dr. Robin Engel who led a research project with the Louisville Metropolitan Police Department (LMPD) to evaluate the impact of their agency's deescalation program. This study, 'Assessing the Impact of Deescalation Training on Police Behavior: Reducing Police Use of Force in the Louisville Metro Police Department' (published in Criminology & Public Policy) determined that the LMPD deescalation program significantly reduced the frequency of use of force incidents as well as led to reductions in citizen and officer injury rates and severity. This interview contains very important policy and training implications for agencies implementing deescalation or seeking to evaluate the effectiveness of their existing deescalation program. Dr. Engel serves as Senior Vice President at the National Policing Institute, following over 25 years in academic positions within higher education institutions. As an award-winning researcher, she has partnered with dozens of police agencies in the U.S. and internationally, served as Principal Investigator for over a hundred research studies and projects, and ranked among the top academics nationally in criminal justice/criminology. From 2015 – 2019, she served as Vice President for Safety and Reform at the University of Cincinnati, where her executive duties included oversight of daily operations and successful implementation of comprehensive police reforms in the aftermath of a fatal police shooting of an unarmed motorist. As a top scholar and trusted leading authority in police science, Dr. Engel oversees the Institute's vast scientific investments designed to translate and integrate research into practice.
This is the second in a 3 part series on De-Escalation Training – Managing Conflict. It is based on the Police Executive Research Forum (PERF) document “Guiding Principles of Use of Force” March 2016. The document has 30 guiding principles. It is meant to guide criminal justice in how to deal with situations that involve mental health, substance abuse or other infirmities, not involving a firearm. Part 1 was about a Tactical Pause. This one about a Duty to Intervene. Police responses are examined but the bible is full of places, intersections of intervention. And the bible gives us plenty of examples where we can intervene. We have a duty to intervene, because if we don’t intervene, Satan will!

Have you ever heard of De-escalation? It is a term used routinely in mental health and policing.
