In Los Angeles, tensions over immigration enforcement are coming with a hefty price tag. The city has just approved a $5 million loan to cover skyrocketing LAPD overtime costs tied to recent anti-ICE protests. As demonstrators continue to push back against federal immigration actions, city leaders are now grappling with the financial fallout—raising big questions about policing, public spending, and where taxpayer dollars should really be going.

In this Rewired episode, Dani peels back the layers of one of the most haunting and highly publicized true crime cases of our time — the murder of Gabby Petito. The story was everywhere. Viral hashtags. 24-hour news cycles. Social media sleuths dissecting every second of footage. But behind the public obsession lies a deeply human story of control, power imbalance, emotional abuse, and the dangerous dynamics that often hide in plain sight. Dani takes us beyond the headlines and police reports, unpacking the psychological threads woven into Gabby and Brian's relationship. From the disturbing behaviors captured on bodycam footage to the toxic patterns of coercive control, Dani explores the unsettling psychology that often fuels intimate partner violence — and how society sometimes misses the red flags until it's too late. We examine the role of parasocial relationships, the true crime media machine, and the uncomfortable reality of how some victims are elevated while others remain invisible. Why did this case capture the public imagination so powerfully? What does it reveal about our collective fascination with tragedy? And how can we better recognize the early warning signs that may save lives? This is not just a retelling.This is a rewiring — challenging you to see the Gabby Petito case through a different lens.Listener discretion is advised.
Our podcast show being released today is Part 2 of our two-part series featuring two former CFPB senior officers who were key employees in the Enforcement Division under prior directors: Eric Halperin and Craig Cowie. Eric Halperin served as the Enforcement Director at the CFPB from 2010 until former Director, Rohit Chopra, was terminated by President Trump. Craig Cowie was an enforcement attorney at the CFPB from July 2012 until April 2015 and then Assistant Litigation Deputy at the CFPB until June 2018. Part 1 of our two-part series was released last Thursday, June 12. The purpose of these podcast shows were primarily to obtain the opinions of Eric and Craig (two of the country's most knowledgeable and experienced lawyers with respect to CFPB Enforcement) about the legal and practical impact of (i) a Memo to CFPB Staff from Mark Paoletta, Chief Legal Officer, dated April 16, 2025, entitled “2025 Supervision and Enforcement Priorities” (described below) which rescinded prior priority documents and established a whole new set of priorities which in most instances are vastly different than the Enforcement Priority documents which guided former directors, (ii) the dismissal without prejudice of the majority of enforcement lawsuits that were pending when Acting Director Russell Vought was appointed to run the agency, and (iii) other drastic steps taken by CFPB Acting Director Russell Vought to minimize the functions and staffing at the agency. That included, among other things, an order calling a halt to all work at the agency, including the pausing of ongoing investigations and lawsuits and the creation of plans by Vought to reduce the agency's staff (“RIF”) from about 1,750 employees to about 250 employees (including a reduction of Enforcement staff to 50 employees from 258). We described in detail the 2025 Supervision and Enforcement Priorities as follows: · Reduced Supervisory Exams: A 50% decrease in the overall number of exams to ease burdens on businesses and consumers. · Focus on Depository Institutions: Shifting attention back to banks and credit unions. · Emphasis on Actual Fraud: Prioritizing cases with verifiable consumer harm and measurable damages. · Redressing Tangible Harm: Concentrating on direct consumer remediation rather than punitive penalties. · Protection for Service Members and Veterans:Prioritizing redress for these groups. · Respect for Federalism: Minimizing duplicative oversight and coordinating with state regulators when possible. · Collaboration with Federal Agencies: Coordinating with other federal regulators and avoiding overlapping supervision. · Avoiding Novel Legal Theories: Limiting enforcement to areas clearly within the Bureau's statutory authority. · Fair Lending Focus: Pursuing only cases of proven intentional racial discrimination with identifiable victims and not using statistical evidence for fair lending assessments. Key Areas of Focus: · Mortgages (highest priority) · FCRA/Regulation V (data furnishing violations) · FDCPA/Regulation F (consumer contracts/debts) · Fraudulent overcharges and fees · Inadequate consumer information protection Deprioritized Areas: · Loans for "justice involved" individuals · Medical debt · Peer-to-peer lending platforms · Student loans · Remittances · Consumer data · Digital payments We also described the status of a lawsuit brought by the union representing CFPB employees and other parties against Vought seeking to enjoin him from implementing the RIF. The Court has granted a preliminary injunction which so far has largely prevented Vought from following through on the RIF. The matter is now on appeal before the DC Circuit Court of Appeals and a ruling is expected soon. These podcast shows complement the podcast show we released on June 5 which featured two former senior CFPB employees, Peggy Twohig and Paul Sanford who opined about the impact of the April 16 Paoletta memo and proposed RIF on CFPB Supervision. Eric and Craig considered, among other issues, the following: 1. How do the new Paoletta priorities differ from the previous priorities and what do the new priorities tell us about what we can expect from CFPB Enforcement? 2. What do the new priorities tell us about the CFPB's new approach toward Enforcement priorities? 3. What can we learn from the fact that the CFPB has dismissed without prejudice at least 22 out of the 38 enforcement lawsuits that were pending when Vought became the Acting Director? What types of enforcement lawsuits are still active and what types of lawsuits were dismissed? 4. What are the circumstances surrounding the nullification of certain consent orders (including the Townstone case) and the implications for other consent orders? 5. Has the CFPB launched any new enforcement lawsuits under Vought? 6. What level and type of enforcement is statutorily required? 7. Realistically, what will 50 employees be able to do in the enforcement area? 8. What will be the impact of the Supervision cutbacks be on Enforcement since Supervision refers many cases to Enforcement? 9. Will the CFPB continue to seek civil money penalties for violations of law? 10. What types of fair lending cases will the CFPB bring in the future?11. Will Enforcement no longer initiate cases based on the unfairness or abusive prongs of UDAAP? Alan Kaplinsky, former practice group leader for 25 years and now Senior Counsel of the Consumer Financial Group, hosts the podcast show. Postscript: After the recording of this podcast, Cara Petersen, who succeeded Eric Halperin as head of CFPB Enforcement, resigned abruptly on June 10 from the CFPB after sending out an e-mail message to all its employees (which was shared with the media) which stated, in relevant part: “I have served under every director and acting director in the bureau's history and never before have I seen the ability to perform our core mission so under attack,” wrote Petersen, who had worked at the agency since it became operational in 2011. She continued: “It has been devastating to see the bureau's enforcement function being dismantled through thoughtless reductions in staff, inexplicable dismissals of cases, and terminations of negotiated settlements that let wrongdoers off the hook.” “It is clear that the bureau's current leadership has no intention to enforce the law in any meaningful way,” Petersen wrote in her e-mail. “While I wish you all the best, I worry for American consumers.” During this part of the podcast show, we discussed the fact that the CFPB has entered into agreements with a few companies that had previously entered into consent agreements with former Director Chopra. After the recording of this podcast, the Federal District Court that presided over the Townstone Financial enforcement litigation involving alleged violations of the Equal Credit Opportunity Act refused to approve the rescission or undoing of the consent agreement based on Rule 60(b)(6) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure because of the strong public policy of preserving the finality of judgments.

In this episode, Brian takes you inside one of the most heartbreaking and widely followed true crime cases of the last decade — the murder of Gabby Petito. What began as a young couple's dream road trip across America spiraled into a national media firestorm, ending with tragedy, unanswered questions, and a haunting search for justice.Brian strips away the headlines and viral headlines to walk through the factual timeline: the cross-country van life adventure, the disturbing police bodycam footage from Moab, Utah, the troubling behavioral red flags from Brian Laundrie, and the frantic search that captivated millions. He examines the investigation step-by-step, from the missing person report to the grim discovery of Gabby's remains in Grand Teton National Park, to the subsequent manhunt for Laundrie that ultimately ended with his suicide.While the media cycle often sensationalized the story, The Guilty Files: Uncovered focuses on the hard facts, the official reports, the autopsy findings, and the investigative decisions that shaped this case. Brian applies his law enforcement experience to analyze key moments that could have shifted the outcome, and highlights the painful realities of domestic violence, public scrutiny, and law enforcement limitations that still fuel debate today.This is the real story behind the headlines — told with clarity, respect, and an unflinching look at the human dynamics that turned a young couple's social media dream into a national tragedy.
Welcome to the award-winning FCPA Compliance Report, the longest running podcast in compliance. Today, I welcome back James Tillen and Ann Sultan, both partners at Miller & Chevalier. We take a deep dive into four recent DOJ Policy announcements: FCPA Enforcement, White Collar Enforcement, Criminal Enforcement Policy and Whistleblower Pilot Program. New DOJ Policy Memorandum We take a deep dive into Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche's Memo on Investigations and Enforcement of the FCPA. We review the stated main goals of the DOJ and how are prosecutors supposed to achieve these goals. We consider the 3 directives to prosecutors: focus on cases with individual misconduct, proceed expeditiously, consider collateral consequences. We look at the White Collar Plan and CEP and ask if we moved from a presumption of a declination to a more tangible framework? We conclude by reviewing what compliance professionals need to be thinking about and looking into now. Key Highlights IncludeHow does the principle of "not attribute[ing] nonspecific malfeasance to corporate structures" impact potential prosecutions of companies and individuals? And how do these priorities jive with other DOJ priorities, such as prosecuting cartels/transnational criminal organizations? What does it mean for companies that the DOJ is prioritizing “serious misconduct”? What are the implications of the DOJ's stated intent to avoid penalizing “routine business practices in other nations”? Do you see this as a shift in focus for the DOJ to non-US companies?

This lecture, the third in a series on Secured Transactions, focuses on the final stage of the process: default, remedies, and enforcement under Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C.). It explains that while the U.C.C. allows parties to define default, common examples include failing to make payments or maintain collateral. Upon default, secured parties have several options, including repossession (often without judicial process if peaceable), selling the collateral in a commercially reasonable manner to potentially seek a deficiency judgment, or retaining it through strict foreclosure, though this is limited for consumer goods. The lecture emphasizes that secured parties must adhere to notice requirements and the debtor retains redemption rights until the collateral is disposed of, with courts playing a role in ensuring compliance and balancing creditor and debtor rights."Default" is largely defined by the security agreement between the parties, commonly including failure to make timely payments or breaches of covenants like maintaining collateral or unauthorized transfer.The most significant self-help remedy is repossession of the collateral without judicial process, provided it can be done without breaching the peace."Without breach of the peace" means repossession must not involve physical force, threats, breaking and entering, or actions likely to provoke violence.Replevin is a judicial process to recover collateral, used when self-help is too risky or likely to cause conflict, offering a court-backed recovery method.The two main options are selling or disposing of the collateral (public or private sale) or retaining it in full or partial satisfaction of the debt (strict foreclosure).The central requirement is conducting the sale or disposition in a commercially reasonable manner, considering factors like method, manner, time, place, and terms.Sale proceeds are applied to expenses, then the debt, then junior interests. Surplus goes to the debtor; deficiency allows a deficiency judgment.Strict foreclosure is retaining collateral for the debt. A key requirement is sending an authenticated proposal to the debtor and others for their potential objection.Strict foreclosure is prohibited in consumer-goods transactions if the debtor paid 60% or more of the cash price.The debtor (or secondary obligor) can redeem collateral by paying the full debt plus expenses before disposition or strict foreclosure is completed.
This lecture explores the critical phase of default, remedies, and enforcement in secure transactions under Article 9 of the UCC. It covers the definition of default, the rights of secured parties upon default, the process of repossession, and the importance of commercial reasonableness in the disposition of collateral. The lecture also discusses the procedural safeguards in place to protect debtor rights and the implications of noncompliance with UCC requirements.TakeawaysDefault is largely defined by the parties' agreement.Secured parties have powerful rights upon default.Repossession can occur without judicial process if done peacefully.Commercial reasonableness is crucial in the sale of collateral.Failure to provide notice can lead to loss of deficiency rights.Debtors have redemption rights before collateral is disposed of.Judicial remedies can be pursued when self-help is risky.Procedural safeguards ensure fairness in enforcement.Noncompliance with UCC can result in sanctions.Understanding these principles is vital for commercial law practice.secure transactions, default, remedies, UCC, collateral, enforcement, commercial law, debtor rights, repossession, judicial remedies

Key Takeaways:Maintain Tone at the Top: Boards should confirm that their commitment to compliance and ethical behavior remains strong and consistent, even with the DOJ's pause on new FCPA investigations. This includes consistent messaging throughout the organization. Review Third-Party Risk Management: Companies should reassess their third-party risk management programs to make sure they are not inadvertently engaging with entities associated with transnational criminal organizations (TCOs) or terrorist organizations. Refresh Risk Assessment: Boards should ask management to perform a thorough risk assessment, with an intentional focus on operations. Geographical Focus: Companies should evaluate the culture and increased risk in regions where they operate, to maintain compliance and mitigate risks associated with these areas. Revisit Whistleblower Processes: Boards should ask to be kept appraised of all whistleblower reports and resolutions. Independent Investigations: In cases where there is a potential threat or pressure to pay a bribe, boards should facilitate independent investigations, involving outside counsel and forensic accountants to maintain objectivity and thoroughness.

Friday June 6, 2025 Corporate Enforcement for the New Federalism
With June being National Safety Month, a time dedicated to focusing on safety as a core value, and the first week holding special significance as National CPR and AED Awareness Week, Emily is joined today by Brian Goepfert, a former MSHA Administrator for Enforcement and volunteer firefighter. Together, they discuss just how vital CPR and AED training can be in saving a life, and Brian shares a very personal CPR safety story that truly brings home why these skills are so important. Brian paints a clear picture of what happens during a cardiac event and how immediate action, with CPR and an AED, can quite literally be the difference between life and death. He talks about those crucial first few minutes, especially when professional medical help might be delayed, such as at remote mine sites or pits. The conversation explores how CPR keeps oxygen moving to the brain and vital organs when the heart cannot, and how an AED works to shock the heart back into a healthy rhythm. This isn't just about procedures; it is about giving everyday people, bystanders, the confidence to step in and make a profound difference. Main Themes: CPR's impact on a person's chance of surviving cardiac arrest The critical role of an AED Why every single minute counts Bystander intervention The frequency and locations where cardiac events occur Brian's story where quick CPR and AED use saved a life CPR training Why keeping training current is important Toolbox Talk Discussion Questions: Brian starts by discussing how CPR and AED training equips people with skills that can improve someone's chances of surviving a cardiac event. How many of us are currently CPR and AED certified? Brian shares the importance of bystander intervention and how having the CPR and AED training means a bystander can intervene and provide assistance until professionals can arrive. How does this mentality work alongside our industry's key value of safety? Does anyone have a story they would like to share about CPR and AED training? Key Takeaways: "With immediate action, CPR and AED does increase a person's chance of survival, especially when professional help is delayed." "When properly and promptly administered, CPR can double, even triple, a victim's chance of survival during a cardiac arrest." "AED is also critical, just as critical as CPR in that it helps restart or put the heart back into a normal, healthy rhythm." "Training empowers bystanders to become immediate responders, reducing the time until professional help arrives." "Confidence beats panicking in emergencies." "There are about 10,000 heart attacks that occur in U.S. workplaces, including remote mining operations, where professional rescue services are usually not readily available." "...early CPR and AED administration saved that patient's life. The patient did recover and went on to live a fulfilling life." "CPR and AED training are essential life saving skills that anyone should learn." "Even if you've been CPR trained before, guidelines and directions can and do change... So please keep up on the latest guidelines." Links: National Stone, Sand & Gravel Association website Brian Goepfert: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-goepfert-cmsp-4ab72034b/

In this week's Uncovered episode, Brian takes you deep into the chilling history of one of Britain's most infamous serial killers: Peter Sutcliffe, better known as the Yorkshire Ripper. From 1975 to 1980, Sutcliffe terrorized Northern England with a string of brutal murders that left entire communities gripped with fear. But this episode isn't just about the crimes—it's about the systemic failures, missed opportunities, and the cultural landscape that allowed a killer to slip through the cracks time and time again.Brian unpacks the timeline of Sutcliffe's violent spree, dissecting the official investigations, the missteps by law enforcement, and the media frenzy that fueled public hysteria. With a law enforcement background of his own, Brian brings insight into how biases and assumptions—particularly toward the victims—delayed justice and cost lives.We revisit the women behind the headlines—mothers, daughters, workers, students—whose stories were too often overshadowed by the mythology of the Ripper himself.This isn't about glorifying the killer. It's about holding up a lens to the society that failed to stop him. With exclusive details, a grounded historical lens, and a no-nonsense approach to the uncomfortable truths behind one of Britain's darkest chapters, this episode lays the foundation for the week's deeper exploration into psychology, victim impact, and institutional accountability.Listen to the full episode and be sure to follow us for Wednesday's “ReWired” analysis with Dani, where we unravel the psychological profile and lasting societal scars of the case. Then come back Friday for the co-hosted “Revisited” discussion, where Brian and Dani dig even deeper into what we've learned—and what history still refuses to face.Subscribe now and don't miss a case file.This is The Guilty Files: True Crime Uncovered.
Is your company ready to bet its future on whether it can outpace a whistleblower to the DOJ's door? In this episode, Michael Volkov takes a deep dive into the Department of Justice's newly announced strategy to reshape corporate enforcement. With promises of greater clarity, reduced penalties, and fewer monitors, the DOJ wants companies to see voluntary disclosure as a smart and safe move - not a leap of faith. But behind the incentives lies a sharper edge: whistleblowers, shortened timelines, and a more assertive DOJ ready to move fast. Whether you're in-house counsel, a compliance officer, or just trying to stay ahead of enforcement trends, this is a must-listen breakdown of what's changed, why it matters, and what companies need to do now to avoid being caught off guard.You'll hear him discuss:How companies that voluntarily disclose, cooperate, and remediate can now qualify for a declination, even with aggravating circumstancesWhy the DOJ is promising greater transparency and fairness in enforcement to reduce fear and uncertainty around self-reportingWhat changes have been made to limit when corporate monitors are imposed, and how DOJ will control their cost and scopeHow the whistleblower program has been significantly expanded to include sanctions, tariffs, trade violations, and federal program fraudWhat benefits may still be available for companies that report after DOJ has begun an investigation, including reduced fines and no monitorshipWhy DOJ is pushing prosecutors to shorten the length of corporate investigations and avoid drawn-out resolutionsWhat's at stake if a whistleblower reports first, and how companies could lose access to key benefits by waiting too longResourcesMichael Volkov on LinkedIn | TwitterThe Volkov Law Group

Our conversation focuses on America's borders and the efforts of the US Border Patrol in safeguarding the American people from terrorists and their weapons, drug smugglers, and the illegal entry of undocumented aliens. We also focus on sanctuary cities and states and the efforts of USBP and ICE to arrest and deport illegal alien criminals. The conversation also addresses the threats emanating from dangerous cartel groups smuggling illicit drugs and terrorists. We also delve into reports of the recent increase of interdiction of illicit drugs (including fentanyl), drug proceeds and weapons — as patrol agents are re-directed to focus on their primary responsibility, and instead of dealing with the mass invasion chaos of illegal aliens in the Biden-Harris era, to confronting the evil schemes of the cartels. americasrt.com (https://americasrt.com/) https://summitleadersusa.com/ | https://jerusalemleaderssummit.com/ America's Roundtable on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/americas-roundtable/id1518878472 X: @USBPChief @americasrt1776 @ileaderssummit @NatashaSrdoc @JoelAnandUSA @supertalk America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

What if your next import shipment becomes the centre of a federal enforcement action — not because of criminal intent, but because of a mistake? In today's episode, Michael Volkov breaks down the expanding power and reach of U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CPB) and what it means for businesses navigating an increasingly aggressive trade enforcement landscape. With the Trump Administration's re-defined objective of fair trade, companies across all sectors need to brace for scrutiny, adapt to evolving risks, and rethink their compliance strategies.You'll hear him discuss:The Trump Administration's focus on fair trade and why CPB has become a central enforcement agency under this new agendaHow CPB exercises its authority to impose regulatory penalties, seize goods, and refer serious cases for civil or criminal prosecutionThe legal standards that determine the severity of violations — fraud, gross negligence, or negligence — and how each carries different penalty thresholdsWhy the materiality of a false statement or omission is a key factor in determining whether a violation has occurredThe importance of voluntary disclosure and how it can significantly reduce potential penalties and protect company reputationThe step-by-step process of CPB administrative enforcement, including investigations, pre-penalty notices, appeals, and mitigation optionsThe expanding impact of the Enforce and Protect Act (EAPA), and how companies can be held accountable for evading anti-dumping and countervailing dutiesWhy businesses must now take a closer look at their import documentation, supply chain practices, and overall trade compliance postureResourcesMichael Volkov on LinkedIn | TwitterThe Volkov Law Group
Every bit of political capital should have been spent from day one on securing the authorities and resources for mass removals. Instead, it's been hijacked by tax policy. I first discuss the tax provisions, which are random, bizarre, and, in some cases, pure socialism. We're joined by RJ Hauman, president of the National Immigration Center for Enforcement, who updates us on his concern that the tax focus has overshadowed deportations. He believes that too much of the budgetary scoring is being used for tax provisions or even wasteful border and defense provisions when the key is ICE funding for detention and removal operations. He is also fighting to keep out bad provisions, such as the “gold cards” and paying illegal aliens a bonus to leave. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
