Podcasts about Lee County

Back in the 1990s, as the southwest Florida population grew, it became apparent that local water bodies and waterways were being impacted — and impaired — by nutrient pollution. So, in the late 2000s several local governments began implementing ordinances that prohibited the application of lawn fertilizer during the rainy season, which generally speaking runs from June first through September or so. We learn about Lee County's ordinance, and the importance of complying with these rules to benefit our waters and ecosystems.

S11E093, Police Take Out Suspect Ramming Bus With His Car During Tense Encounter Suburbs affected by rising crime due to loss of control by Baltimore Democrats. Former deputy found guilty of reckless homicide. Man accused of child molestation tased and arrested. D.C. police leaders face firing due to alleged crime data coverup. Police take out suspect ramming bus with his car during tense encounter. Leo Roundtable: Urban Lawlessness, Tactical Integrity, and the Crisis of Policy Visualizing Key Highlights... This episode of the Leo Roundtable features law enforcement professionals Chip DeBlock and Captain Bret Bartlett discussing the escalating lawlessness in major American cities and its expansion into suburban areas. The panel analyzes high-profile use-of-force incidents in Ohio, Florida, and Chicago, while critiquing the systemic failures in crime data reporting and tactical training. The discussion emphasizes the necessity of proactive policing and the dangers of "soft on crime" policies that prioritize political optics over public safety. Detailed Key Point Summary 1. The "Failed Progressive Experiment" and Urban Decay The discussion opens with a critical look at Baltimore and other "blue" jurisdictions, characterizing them as failed progressive experiments. Lawmakers are accused of being "DEI activists" whose criminal justice reforms have fueled a decade of violent crime and a subsequent exodus of productive, working-class taxpayers. This lawlessness is not contained; it is spreading into suburbs as politicians lose control of the narrative and the streets. The panel notes that cities like San Francisco, Portland, and New York are facing similar population collapses and business departures due to a lack of repercussions for criminal behavior. 2. Street Takeovers and the "Soft on Crime" Response A significant portion of the dialogue focuses on the rise of "street takeovers" by large groups of youths. Captain Bartlett argues that these groups "test the waters" to see how much they can get away with; if there is no immediate "stomp" on the behavior, it escalates. A contrast is drawn between cities that allow hoodlums to run wild and jurisdictions like Tampa, where multiple agencies recently coordinated to shut down a bridge takeover, resulting in the confiscation of approximately 50 motorcycles. The panel advocates for tough racing laws that penalize both participants and spectators to deter future incidents. Tactical Comparison: Proactive vs. Passive Policing Strategy Outcome (Perceived) Proactive (e.g., Tampa) Asset seizure, arrests, and deterrence of future "takeovers." Passive (e.g., LA/Baltimore) Escalation of lawlessness, "concrete poisoning," and taxpayer flight. Pretext Stop Bans Loss of investigative tools; higher long-term costs for residents. 3. Use of Force Analysis: Ohio and Florida Case Studies The panel dissects the conviction of former Deputy Jason Meade for reckless homicide in the 2020 death of Casey Goodson Jr. Bartlett expresses skepticism regarding the conviction, noting that if a suspect points a gun at an officer, the use of deadly force is justified regardless of whether the suspect was wearing earbuds or carrying sandwiches. They also discuss the "lag time" or "reactionary gap," explaining how an officer can legally fire shots that land in a suspect's back if the suspect turns during the second-and-a-half it takes for the brain to process the "stop shooting" command. In contrast, a Lee County, Florida, incident is praised for a successful transition from a handgun to a Taser when a child molestation suspect pulled a knife, highlighting the importance of keeping the Taser on the opposite side of the duty belt to avoid "weapon confusion". 4. Data Integrity and the Chicago Shooting Incident The episode addresses the scandal in Washington D.C., where top police officials face firing for allegedly manipulating crime statistics to make the city appear safer. Bartlett explains the technical differences between UCR (Uniform Crime Reporting) and NIBRS (National Incident-Based Reporting System), suggesting that many agencies avoid NIBRS because it more accurately records multiple offenses, leading to a perceived "spike" in crime. Finally, a Chicago shooting is reviewed where a murder suspect rammed a bus and police vehicles. The panel critiques the "dancing" (adrenaline-fueled movement) of the officers and the dangerous attempt to break a car window with the muzzle of a firearm, which could lead to a negligent discharge. Crime Reporting Standards UCR Summary-based; often used to "fudge" or simplify numbers. vs NIBRS Incident-based; captures detailed data for every offense. "A lot of agencies didn't want to go to NIBRS because there's a spike in crime [due to more accurate reporting]." - Capt. Bartlett Key Data Asset Seizure: Approximately 50 motorcycles were confiscated during the Tampa bridge takeover response. Legal Settlement: The city of Albuquerque (New Mexico) is paying $6.5 million in a fatal shooting settlement related to a mental health call. Tactical Accuracy: In the Jason Meade case, the deputy fired 6 rounds with 100% accuracy (5 in the back, 1 in the side). Chicago Incident: Officers fired at least 5 shots at a suspect ramming vehicles in Humboldt Park. To-Do Visit the new online store at leoroundtable.com to support the show.

Conclusion This episode highlights a widening gap between progressive political mandates and the operational realities of law enforcement. From the "fudging" of crime statistics in D.C. to the tactical chaos observed in Chicago, the panel argues that the lack of consistent training and the erosion of proactive policing tools (like pretext stops) are creating a vacuum of authority. The consensus remains that without strict repercussions and high-quality, frequent training, urban lawlessness will continue to deteriorate the quality of life in both cities and their surrounding suburbs.

Trial Day Two in Lee County moved into testimony, with prosecutors presenting early witnesses to establish the timeline of the attempted robbery that led to the shooting of Kayla Rincon-Miller. The defense began highlighting inconsistencies and setting up doubt about who fired the fatal shot, signaling their strategy to challenge the credibility of key witness Christopher Horne Jr..

Thomas Stein is on trial in Lee County for the fatal shooting of 15-year-old Kayla Rincon-Miller during what prosecutors say was a robbery attempt in Cape Coral. His former co-defendant Christopher Horne Jr. has already taken a plea deal and is expected to testify for the state, making his testimony one of the most critical moments of trial. This case now turns on whether jurors believe Stein was the shooter—or whether the prosecution can still secure a conviction even if that exact trigger pull remains disputed.Juror Copycat Crimehttps://people.com/juror-who-convicted-man-fatal-stabbing-allegedly-arrested-similar-crime-days-later-11962212Florida man drives riding lawn mower into Targethttps://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/florida-man-drives-lawnmower-target-202552094.htmlJoin our squad!

This case now turns on whether jurors believe Stein was the shooter—or whether the prosecution can still secure a conviction even if that exact trigger pull remains disputed.Opening statements in the trial of Thomas Stein framed the case as a robbery gone wrong that turned deadly, with prosecutors telling jurors the evidence will show Stein participated in the events that led to the shooting of Kayla Rincon-Miller. The state signaled that testimony from co-defendant Christopher Horne Jr. will be central to explaining what happened inside the SUV and who did what during the encounter. Defense attorneys pushed back by emphasizing uncertainty around who actually fired the gun, urging jurors to scrutinize Horne's credibility given his plea deal.Join our squad!

In February 1999, fifteen-year-old Sonya Christene Wallace left her mother's home in Rockdale, Texas to walk four blocks to the post office. She left around 5:30 p.m.She never came back.Initially labeled a runaway by local authorities, Sonya's disappearance received little urgency. Her family insisted that something was wrong. Weeks passed without answers.On March 14, 1999, a rancher discovered the body of a teenage girl beneath a bridge in southeastern Williamson County, close to the Lee County line. The remains were badly decomposed. DNA testing later confirmed it was Sonya Wallace.Her death was ruled a homicide caused by blunt force trauma to the head.Investigators believed Sonya was killed elsewhere and her body transported to the creek bed where she was found, approximately 25 miles from where she disappeared. Evidence collected included her clothing and soda bottles from the scene. Detectives stated early on they believed Sonya likely knew her killer.A previous case involving two young men who had been arrested months earlier in connection with inappropriate contact with Sonya surfaced during the investigation. One was incarcerated at the time of her death. The other had been released from jail just eleven days before she vanished. No arrests were ever made in Sonya's murder.Over the years, investigators conducted between 150 and 200 interviews. Crime Stoppers rewards were offered. Sonya's father created a website dedicated to her memory, hoping someone would come forward.In 2017, the Williamson County Sheriff's Office established a Cold Case Unit. Sonya's case was reopened and reexamined from the beginning. Detectives retested evidence using modern DNA techniques and reinterviewed hundreds of people connected to her life. Investigators now believe she may have been planning to meet someone the night she disappeared, and they have stated there is no evidence she ever reached the post office.More than two and a half decades later, Sonya Wallace's murder remains unsolved.If you have information about the murder of Sonya Christene Wallace, please call the Williamson County Sheriff's Office Cold Case Unit at (512) 943-5204.You can support gone cold and listen to the show ad-free at https://patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.

This week, we had two tragic DUI cases: one a fatal crash, and another stopped by a brave 13-year-old who called 911. In this episode of the Cape CopCast 'Chief's Chat,' we walk through what happened, why impaired driving is never an accident, and how early planning—rideshare, a designated driver, or a spare room—prevents tragedy long before the first drink is poured. This sparks a conversation about the limits of enforcement, even with DUI operations and dedicated night-time DUI officers, and make the case that responsibility is the biggest fix. We then pivot to discussing upcoming events, including the Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics, a tradition that unites agencies across Lee County and channels miles into inclusion and support. We highlight the NAMI Bridge Walk and how it ties into our Crisis Intervention Team training, plus a packed local calendar that makes February and March perfect for getting outside, moving your body, and connecting with neighbors. We also remind you about our Financial Crimes Town Hall at the Lake Kennedy Center on Monday, March 2nd at 1 p.m. Our Economic Crimes Unit Detectives will break down current scams, warning signs, and simple ways to protect your accounts and identity, so you can stress less and enjoy more sunsets.

CTL Script/ Top Stories of November 7th Publish Date: November 7th   Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast  Today is Friday, November 7th and Happy Birthday to Jim Kaat I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cherokee County voters approve sales tax for transportation Paloma brings Mexican flavors to Woodstock’s Adair Park Here's who signed up to run for Georgia House District 23 Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on milk We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  Commercial: Ingles Markets 1 STORY 1: Cherokee County voters approve sales tax for transportation Cherokee County voters just gave the green light to a 1% sales tax for transportation—T-SPLOST—set to pump $445 million into local roads over six years. The measure passed with 60.4% of the vote, according to unofficial results. That’s 25,132 “yes” votes to 16,479 “no.” Here's Cherokee County Commission Chair Harry Johnston talking about the results: VO Starting April 2026, the tax will fund road widening, bridge replacements, traffic signal upgrades—you name it. The tax bumps Cherokee’s sales tax to 7%, but here’s the kicker: about a third of that revenue comes from non-residents. STORY 2: Paloma brings Mexican flavors to Woodstock’s Adair Park “Everything here—everything—is made from scratch,” says Jason Sheetz, co-owner of Paloma Tequila & Tacos, Woodstock’s newest spot for Mexican food. Open since October in Adair Park, the restaurant even makes its chips and salsa fresh daily. The menu? Familiar favorites like tacos, enchiladas, and fajitas, but with a twist. Almost everything is gluten-free, and Executive Chef Rebeca Delgado brings her own creative flair to dishes like carne asada burritos and tacos de carne asada. Drinks are just as thoughtful. The Paloma Cantarito, served in a ceramic cup, and the jalapeño-pineapple margarita are crowd-pleasers—no premixes, just fresh juices. Paloma is open for dinner now, with lunch service starting Thanksgiving week. And yes, parking is free. STORY 3: Here's who signed up to run for Georgia House District 23 Six candidates are vying for the Georgia House District 23 seat, left vacant after the passing of longtime Representative Mandi Ballinger, who served the Cherokee County area for over a decade before losing her battle with cancer last month. The special election is set for Dec. 9, with five Republicans and one Democrat in the mix: Ann Gazell, a retired educator; Bill Fincher, a former assistant DA; Brice Futch, a firefighter; Raj Sagoo, a consultant; Scott Sanders, an engineer (and the lone Democrat); and William Ware, a retired microbiologist.

In this episode, we head down to the humid backroads of Bishopville, South Carolina — a small town that, in the summer of 1988, became the epicenter of one of America's strangest and most terrifying cryptid encounters.It all began just after midnight on June 29, 1988. Seventeen-year-old Christopher Davis was driving home from work when a flat tire on a lonely stretch of road near Scape Ore Swamp changed his life forever.What he saw that night — a seven-foot-tall, red-eyed creature covered in scales — would ignite a media firestorm, terrify an entire community, and give birth to a legend that still haunts the South to this day.In this episode, we walk through the chilling events that followed Davis's encounter — from cars found mauled and bitten through their metal panels to dozens of frightened residents reporting the same thing: something alive in the swamp that shouldn't exist. You'll hear about the Ford owned by Tom and Mary Waye, covered in claw marks and bite impressions that defied explanation, and how Sheriff Liston Truesdale's investigation — including plaster casts of massive three-toed footprints — gave the mystery credibility it had never had before.We also dig into what came after. From the eerie silence that fell over Lee County in the years that followed, to the shocking 2008 attack on Bob and Dixie Rawson's van that reignited local fears. Then, we fast-forward to 2015, when a supposed church sighting made international headlines — and the 2017 solar eclipse, when the Lizard Man “returned” to social media with his own tongue-in-cheek Twitter account.But this episode isn't just about the headlines. We share never-before-heard witness accounts — from a nurse who stayed silent for thirty years, to a group of Marines whose encounter during night training was quietly buried by their commanding officers.We even touch on the tragic fate of Christopher Davis himself, whose 2009 murder left unanswered questions and an unsettling sense that the full truth of that night died with him.We'll explore the theories too — from cryptozoologists who link the Lizard Man to prehistoric reptiles like Carnufex carolinensis, to skeptics who blame misidentifications, hoaxes, or even environmental contamination. You'll hear from researchers, scientists, and folklorists who all offer their take on what really happened — and why this legend still holds power decades later.We also look at how the Lizard Man changed Bishopville forever.Once a quiet rural community, the town now proudly embraces its monster — from annual festivals and roadside attractions to a permanent exhibit in the South Carolina Cotton Museum. What started as fear became folklore, and eventually, a piece of Southern culture.T oday, the investigation continues with modern tools — from thermal drones to environmental DNA testing — as researchers try to solve a mystery that refuses to die. And with new sightings still being reported as recently as 2023, some wonder if the creature that terrorized Bishopville all those years ago never really left.This episode takes you into the heart of South Carolina's most enduring monster mystery — one that's part folklore, part fear, and part very real experience for those who lived through it.So, if you ever find yourself driving near Scape Ore Swamp after dark… remember Christopher Davis. Remember the red eyes in the darkness. And maybe, just maybe, change that tire in the daylight. Because once you hear this episode, you'll never look at a swamp the same way again.

10/8/2025 Back after two weeks, it's good to be back on the podcast. We break down all of the competitions coming up over the end of the year 2025, but also looking forward to 2026 as well. Then we go over the reason why we took a two week break... Song - Good NewsArtist - Shaboozey

9/3/2025 Shorter episode, but an absolute great listen for those who have been struggling with life potentially inside or outside of the gym.

8/27/2025 After a week away (Because somebody forgot the memory chip at home(me) we are back in action and we have three main topics that we covered. The title might give one of those three away, but you have to listen to see the real meaning behind why that is a legit question. Second, we talked about how to handle having bad days at the gym and why it's okay for it to happen. Third, we go over why standards are so important to our gym culture and why we think that it has been so refreshing lately with our athletes buying in to why standards are so important. Song - Gimme a HugArtist - Drake

Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist Barbara Kingsolver joins co-hosts Whitney Terrell and V.V. Ganeshananthan to discuss her support of Higher Ground, a long-term residence for women recovering from addiction. Kingsolver talks about Lee County, Virginia, which is both Higher Ground's location and the setting for her wildly successful novel Demon Copperhead, which transforms Charles Dickens' David Copperfield into a story of the opioid epidemic in Appalachia. Kingsolver explains how she came to use profits from the novel to found Higher Ground, as well as the local partnerships and conversations that made the project possible. She also reflects on Purdue Pharma's exploitation of Appalachia; her views on ethical philanthropy; her worries about what the Big, Beautiful Bill will do to rural America; and her opinions on Vice President J.D. Vance's authenticity. She considers how she developed the voices of her novel's characters, and reads from Demon Copperhead.

5/28/2025 The guys reminisce going down memory lane from when they first started CrossFit and the interesting roads they both took as beginners in the CrossFit space. The biggest thing to take away from this episode is to understand that you may see someone incredibly advanced at CrossFit, but to remember that they did not start there right from the beginning. Consistency, Intensity, proper mechanics and nutrition will guide you to what you're looking for in this training methodology - emphasis on the consistency!!  Song - DropArtist - Forrest Frank

Is Florida's new signature scent... vanilla?A few weeks ago here on the pod, Chef Justin Timineri of Fresh From Florida told us about some of his favorite trending agricultural products coming out of the Sunshine State.
