My guest on today's show lived that nightmare, going toe to toe with a gunman less than a few feet away from him, with his pistol malfunctioning, and once he cleared his weapon, the rounds hitting, but having no effect. All the while, the bad guy was firing his gun at him so closely he could see the fire coming out of the barrel. Lt. Sutton joined the Princeton Police Department at 19 years of age, becoming one of the youngest Police Officers in the state. He served the town for ten years before joining the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department, where he served for almost 24 years, retiring at the rank of lieutenant. During his service, he distinguished himself as one of the highest decorated officers in department history, having earned multiple Lifesaving awards, Exemplary Service awards, Community service, and a Medal for Valor.The good lieutenant is also a public speaker, prolific author, podcaster, and the founder of Wounded Blue, whose mission is to improve the lives of injured and disabled law enforcement officers by providing support, education, assistance, and legislative advocacy to our true American heroes.Please enjoy this often raw and very real conversation with Lieutenant Randy Sutton.In today's episode we discuss:.·      Why and how he got involved in law enforcement.·      How he became a police officer at the young age of nineteen. ·      The best and worst parts of being a small town cop in Princeton New Jersey.·      Starting over his law enforcement career in the Las Vegas Metro Police Department.·      The challenges and problems with starting over in Vegas and being one of the oldest recruits in the academy. ·      Responding to an active shooter at a high school.·      Going toe to toe with an armed suspect and having your gun malfunction.·      Testifying in a Coroner's Inquest and facing the suspect's mother.·      The aftermath of being in a fatal confrontation.Visit the Wounded Blue website and donate to this worthy cause!Visit Randy's website!Check out the new Cops and Writers YouTube channel!Check out my newest book, The Good Collar (Michael Quinn Vigilante Justice Series Book 1)!!!!!Enjoy the Cops and Writers book series.Please visit the Cops and Writers website.What would you do if you lost the one you loved the most?

For more than 140 years, the Lismore courthouse has stood firm through a procession of natural disasters. Withstanding everything nature has thrown at the town, the courthouse has witnessed a tragic roll call of cases. Cases such as the alleged shooting murder of local mother Carolyn Stuckey by her enraged husband, pharmacist Allan Stuckey. And cases like Bronwyn’s. In 2002, Bronwyn’s family and friends gather at the court for an inquest that explores in detail her disappearance and suspected murder. Proceedings stretch over five days in front of deputy state coroner, Carl Milovanovich. Day one begins with evidence from the first detective to ever conduct a thorough investigation into what happened to Bronwyn, Glenn Taylor. It is Glenn’s last official duty as a police officer after two decades as a detective on constant callout to serious crime scenes. He summarises the evidence of witnesses and concludes by stating that there is very strong circumstantial evidence a known person, namely Jon, was responsible for her death.

He was handed two life sentences with additional time for concealing evidence.The case took eight years to conclude (Bhagat has 90 days to lodge an appeal) and was before the court more than 250 times.Andrea, her second daughter Jolene McLaughlin-Brannigan and Danielle's best friend, Louise McMenamin, travelled to India for the verdict.Irish Times reporter Kitty Holland travelled to Buncrana to talk to Andrea about her daughter, the slow-moving Indian legal system, the scenes in court as Bhagat was sentenced and what they hope will happen now.They still don't know exactly how Danielle died.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Praise from a Future Generation: The Assassination of John F. Kennedy and the First Generation Critics The Last Investigation: Fonzi, Gaeton, Russell, Dick, Fonzi, Marie: - Amazon.ca Len & Jim discuss Donald Trump's declaration to release the JFK, MLK & RFK files. Does Trump realize the magnitude of such a release & the resistance he will face? Rep. David Schweikert has introduced the Justice For Kennedy Act 2025 to have all JFK files released. The National Archives was obligated to release all archived JFK files in 2017. Joe Rogan & Judge Napolitana have kept the pressure on Trump to release the files. Before the Warren Commission was published, Vincent Salandria was a skeptic to the cover stories. Vincent Salandria travelled to Dallas with brother-in-law Harold Feldman & his wife Irma. The trio met with Marguerite Oswald, noting that Marguerite felt she was under surveillance. Harold Feldman was very impressed with Marguerite Oswald & her quest to prove Lee's innocence. Vincent's brother Harold stopped writing about the assassination around 1967-1968. Vincent, Harold, Irma & Marguerite visited Helen Markham's apartment a couple of times. Helen Markham was warned by the Dallas Police Department not to talk to Salandria & Feldman. After 1968, Vince decided it was pointless to fight the WC lies & government pushed forensics. Vincent & Harold's early articles helped forge the path for future researchers. People didn't like Vince because of his deep loyalty to Garrison. How could bullet C399 have been in such mint condition if one is to believe the single bullet theory? Epstein's book Inquest was the 1st critical book on the Warren Commission that had an impact. Shortly after Inquest is published, Epstein 'switches teams' which Salandria calls Epstein out for. Salandria attended a conference held by Arlen Spector where he confronted Spector about his bs theory. Gaeton Fonzi & Vincent Salandria became friends, which led to a taped interview with Arlen Spector. Fonzi was stunned at Spector's confused, halted answers to Gaeton's questions. HSCA Deputy Chief Counsel Robert Tanenbaum is publishing a book in the next few months! Jim & Len answer letters from Black Op Radio listeners. Was the 'Chicago Plot' a dry run for the assassination conspirators? What's going to happen in Canada with Justin Trudeau stepping down?

He tells Watson that he has figured out that the pearls have something to do with Major Sholto, who, he discovered died the same week that Miss Morstan started receiving them. He figures that Sholto's heir knows something, and wants to compensate for it. When Miss Morstan arrives, the trio get into the cab, Holmes making sure to take his revolver with him. In the cab, miss Morstan provides Holmes with some additional papers full of allusions to her father and Major Sholto's time together. On one of the papers is a strange symbol, a small red cross, the words "the sign of the four," and the names Jonathan Small, Mahomet Singh, Abdullah Khan, Dost Akbar. When they arrive at the theatre, they are approached by a man who asks for Miss Morstan, and he asks her to confirm that Holmes and Watson are not police. He then takes them to another cab, and on mounting, takes them on a winding, twisting journey across London. When they finally arrive at their destination, they are greeted by a man at the door, and a young child-like voice from within.

How do you position yourself on the world stage? David Cameron might have been Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, but in this third episode he shares with Ed Balls and George Osborne the true reality of leading a small country in a big world. British soldiers in Afghanistan; Relations with China; The beginnings of a rupture in the UK-EU relationship. And he shares the more personal moments - like losing a parent - that still happen in the life of a human being who happens to be Prime Minister. As Keir Starmer marks six months as Prime Minister, Political Currency is stepping back into 2010, when another former leader of the opposition took up the premiership. Across three episodes, Ed Balls and George Osborne are joined by David Cameron - from the moment he arrived at Downing Street, to dealing with a hostage crisis; taking on his first PMQs to the emotional loss of his father. This is Cameron as you've never heard him before - in conversation with both a former ally and adversary as they revisit the political moments that shaped a new government and a new leader.If you've listened to the first two episodes of Inside Number 10: David Cameron - The First Six Months and can't wait for part 3, don't! All episodes are already available, ad-free for Political Currency Gold subscribers, as well as our subscriber exclusive Inquest episode.

From the Archives: How should Christians understand the Adam & Eve story in Genesis? Is it scientifically plausible that humanity can be traced back to a first human couple? What does it mean for the concept of ‘Original Sin'? These and more questions are discussed by Christian philosopher William Lane Craig, author of the new book ‘In Quest of the Historical Adam', and computational biologist Joshua Swamidass, author of ‘The Genealogical Adam & Eve'. At the end of the show Ruth Jackson talks to Tim Moyler about the evangelistic resource ‘Living & Telling'.
