This week I'm talking to Richard Lang about his book 'UAP Incidents First Responders Guide: POLICE - EMS - FD' UFO/UAP Enigma Is Real - Now more than ever it is becoming clear to the general public that UFO/UAP enigma is real. After years of secrecy the truth is finally coming out about vehicles of non-human origin that have visited here, some that have crashed here, and non-human entities both dead and alive that have been recovered. UAP Incident Preparedness for First Responders - Just as officers were once trained in hazardous materials recognition and counterterrorism preparedness, UAP Incident Preparedness will hopefully become a necessary component of public safety operations and training. Law enforcement officers are uniquely vulnerable to UAP encounters due to the isolated and unpredictable nature of patrol work. Therefore, it stands to reason that sheriff's offices, police departments, fire departments and EMS rescue squads would now want their people properly trained to understand this phenomenon, to at least know a little bit about the history of it and most importantly from a personal safety perspective, know what to do and not do if they ever encounter such a situation. Bio Ufologist - Researcher - Investigator - Author - Speaker Richard Lang was an FAA Licensed Commercial Pilot with an Instrument, Multi Engine Rating for over thirty years. He has a bachelor's degree in Aeronautical Studies and an Associate's Degree in Aviation Management from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida. Mr. Lang enjoyed a successful career for more than 20 years in the corporate banking world as a Senior Vice President working in Brokerage and the Trust Investment Division of Commercial Banks, which afforded him personal time off and sufficient income to explore a lifelong interest in UFO/UAP research. MUFON STAR TEAM While employed in the corporate banking world during the 1990s, Richard joined the UFO organization known as MUFON and was certified as a Field Investigator; he eventually was appointed as Chief Investigator for MUFON in both Virginia and North Carolina. He was one of the original six members of the elite MUFON STAR team where he functioned as coordinator and the first manager of the team. Virginia Division of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS) Richard attained registration as a Private Investigator and Personal Protection Specialist with DCJS in 2000 and he worked part time for a private investigation firm in Charlottesville doing surveillance and investigation. In 2002, Lang graduated from the Police Academy and certified as a sworn law enforcement officer in Virginia as a Reserve Deputy for the Albemarle County Sheriff's Office, primarily providing volunteer community service on weekends and evenings which he really enjoyed. During this time, he received certification from the Virginia Department of Emergency Services as a Search-Rescue Field Team Leader and was certified as a Weapons of Mass Destruction Responder from the US Department of Justice. Federal Law Enforcement In the post 911 period Mr. Lang left his banking career to serve as a Law Enforcement Officer (LEO) at the rank of Sergeant in Virginia airports. He was sworn both on the federal level as Special Deputy for the U.S. Marshals Service and on the state level as a Deputy Sheriff for the County Sheriff's Office. During this time the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was initially created as Congress had mandated extremely high levels of security for USA Airports. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) After serving for approximately a year as a LEO Richard was hired by Homeland Security and assigned to TSA as a Federal Liaison for airport stakeholders responsible for implementing federal procedures and dealing with regulatory initiatives associated with aviation security. This also included responsibility for airlines and airport authorities as well as all law enforcement agencies in Virginia that respond to airports during aviation emergencies. He was a member of the Anti-Terrorist Advisory Council Board (organized by the U.S. Attorney's Office) where he frequently served as key speaker on terrorism at quarterly regional meeting hosted by Homeland Security. http://www.langpublication.com/ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GNMK85XR https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/ https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcast https://simonbown.com/ My new book, Aspects of Alien Abduction https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GRRPCT9Y Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode of the No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast, Brad sits down with Bridget Truxillo, JD — former Deputy Sheriff, SWAT team member, and founder of Lady Law Shield — for a powerful conversation about law enforcement, leadership, and the often-overlooked legal pressures first responders face.Bridget brings a unique and well-rounded perspective shaped by her time in patrol, her work in a Narcotics and Organized Crime Unit (NOCU), and her experience serving on a SWAT team in Florida. Having operated in high-risk environments, she understands firsthand the realities of split-second decision-making, internal agency dynamics, and the scrutiny law enforcement officers face both on and off duty.During the conversation, Brad and Bridget explore the challenges officers encounter not only in the field but within their own organizations — including administrative pressure, legal vulnerability, and the mental weight of constantly operating under a microscope. Bridget shares how these experiences ultimately led her to pursue a law degree, driven by a desire to continue serving the law enforcement community in a different and impactful way.After transitioning out of active duty, Bridget founded Lady Law Shield, an organization designed to support law enforcement officers and first responders by helping alleviate the legal stress that can come with the job. Her mission is centered around providing accessible legal protection, guidance, and peace of mind so officers can focus on their work, their families, and their overall well-being.Brad and Bridget also discuss:• Legal challenges in law enforcement careers • Officer liability and decision-making under pressure • Internal agency dynamics and stress • Transitioning from law enforcement to new purpose • Supporting first responders beyond the badge • Building a more balanced and sustainable life • Reducing stress through legal preparednessBridget emphasizes that many first responders carry unseen legal and professional burdens that can impact their mental health, family life, and long-term career outlook. By addressing these concerns proactively, she believes officers can operate with more confidence, clarity, and stability.This episode offers valuable insight for law enforcement officers, first responders, and anyone interested in understanding the intersection of public safety, legal protection, and personal well-being.To learn more or connect with Bridget, you can reach her at: Hello@ladylawshield.comAbout the No One Fights Alone PodcastThe No One Fights Alone (NOFA) Podcast features real conversations about mental health, trauma recovery, addiction, resilience, leadership, and suicide prevention within first responder, military, and high-pressure professional communities.

With over 30 years in health tech and a background as a part-time law enforcement captain, Gary brings a unique perspective to cybersecurity. He draws parallels between street-level crime and digital attacks. Whether you lead a large hospital system or a small specialty practice, this episode is packed with practical insights on how to assess your cyber risk, respond to an active breach, and build a culture of leadership accountability before disaster strikes. In this episode, they talk about: About 90% of breached healthcare organizations end up paying the ransom Small practices are just as targeted as large health systems, especially those with strong insurance policies Lack of visibility across the full attack surface is the most common security blind spot Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) is replacing outdated point-in-time assessments Known Exploitable Vulnerabilities (KEVs) are a primary attacker entry point, yet most orgs patch them too slowly AI is helping hackers build malicious tools faster and with less technical skill During a breach, deciding how quickly to shut down the network is the most critical early call Most IT providers never deliver a documented risk report to leadership, leaving executives in the dark Gary's cyber risk grading tool gives non-technical leaders a real-time security score per facility Documented, improving risk scores can reduce regulatory penalties after a breach Most ransomware attacks are preventable with proper patching, configuration, and monitoring A Little About Gary: Gary Salman is the CEO and Co-Founder of Black Talon Security, a leading innovator in cybersecurity solutions for healthcare. With an impressive 32-year career in healthcare technology, Gary is both a seasoned security expert and visionary. In the late 1990s, he developed one of the earliest cloud-based dental practice management systems that was acquired by a publicly traded company in 2002.

See exclusives at https://SarahWestall.Substack.comJohn Mark Dougan — former United States Marine and former Deputy Sheriff in Palm Beach County, Florida — joins me from Russia, where he was granted political asylum. In this explosive interview, Dougan recounts how he found himself at the center of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation after obtaining copies of alleged Epstein blackmail videos from the lead investigator on the case — a development later referenced by The Times of London. He describes the internal outrage within local law enforcement as deputies watched Epstein receive treatment that, in their view, stood in stark contrast to how an ordinary accused sex offender would have been handled. Dougan lays out what he says he witnessed inside the sheriff's office: the frustration, the silence, the politics and the pressure. He also explains how his involvement with sensitive whistleblower information — separate from and predating the Epstein matter — ultimately forced him to leave the United States and seek political asylum abroad. This is a firsthand account from a former insider who claims to have seen the machinery operate from the inside — and who says the public still doesn't know the full story.You can learn more about John Mark Dougan at https://BadVolf.com

Former Illinois deputy Sean Grayson is sentenced to 20 years in prison for the fatal shooting of Sonya Massey, a 36‑year‑old woman who called 911 for help before being killed in her own home. The case, which sparked widespread outrage and calls for police reform, concluded with Massey’s family expressing mixed relief and grief as they received the maximum penalty allowed under law.

The episode opens with a heavy national headline as former Illinois deputy Sean Grayson is sentenced to 20 years in prison for the fatal shooting of Sonya Massey, a 36‑year‑old woman who called 911 for help before being killed in her own home. The case, which sparked widespread outrage and calls for police reform, concluded with Massey’s family expressing mixed relief and grief as they received the maximum penalty allowed under law. The show then shifts to star sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson, who was arrested in Florida after authorities clocked her at 104 mph while allegedly tailgating and weaving through lanes; she was charged under the state’s “super speeder” law and released on a $500 bond. The arrest adds to her recent string of off‑track controversies but also highlights her continued visibility following her celebrated Olympic performances. In entertainment news, longtime reality TV fixture Basketball Wives is officially coming to an end after 12 seasons. Series creator Shaunie Henderson announced the decision as a moment of “growth,” reflecting on how the show became a cultural staple that amplified the voices and lives of women connected to the NBA while teasing her plans for new media projects ahead. The episode closes with developing news on journalist Don Lemon, who was arrested by federal agents while covering the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles. His arrest stems from his on‑scene reporting at a Minnesota church protest that challenged immigration enforcement. Lemon’s attorney calls the charges an attack on press freedom, especially after an earlier attempt to prosecute him was rejected by a judge.

In this episode of Beekeeping Today Podcast, Jeff and Becky talk with Rowdy Freeman, a deputy sheriff from California who has become a leading figure in the fight against beehive theft. What began as a criminal investigation over a decade ago drew Rowdy into the world of bees, and today he's not only a law enforcement expert but also a commercial beekeeper managing over 1,200 colonies. Rowdy shares how hive theft has grown into a serious agricultural crime, especially during almond pollination season in California. He explains the tactics thieves use, from stealing entire hives to removing bees from within colonies, and how difficult it can be to trace stolen bees once they've changed hands. Drawing on his experience in both law enforcement and beekeeping, Rowdy offers practical advice for protecting colonies, including using GPS trackers, wireless cameras, and clearly marked equipment. He also discusses how building strong relationships with landowners and reporting even small thefts can help authorities track patterns and intervene. With theft numbers rising and colony losses reaching record highs, Rowdy's perspective is timely and vital. This episode shines a light on an often-overlooked threat facing beekeepers and reminds listeners of the importance of vigilance and community support in protecting our bees.

From the Ingles Studio this is your news minute on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast presented by Credit Union of Georgia. Today is Friday, November 1st and I'm Keith Ippolito. Candidate for Chief Deputy Sheriff Misused Force, Documents Show Documents released by the Cobb County Democratic Committee reveal that Michael Dondelinger, a candidate for Chief Deputy Sheriff, was investigated multiple times for misuse of force during his tenure as a sergeant in the Cobb Sheriff's Office. Incidents include authorizing force as punishment, striking an inmate, and drawing a gun on civilians. Despite these past issues, Republican candidate David Cavender, who selected Dondelinger as his chief deputy, defends him, citing the incidents as nearly two decades old and asserting that Dondelinger has since learned his lesson. The revelations have intensified the sheriff race, with accusations exchanged between Cavender and Democratic Sheriff Craig Owens. Cavender argues that Owens was aware of Dondelinger's past when promoting him to captain, while Owens criticizes the timing of these disclosures. The race has become contentious, with both sides leveraging past incidents to sway voters ahead of the election. For more news about our community, visit mdjonline.com.
