Sex And Human Trafficker You Would Not Suspect. Her Police Father's Death by Suicide. She was the victim of human and sex trafficking during her childhood, by one of the most unlikely suspects. Plus, her father a Police Captain and Vietnam Combat Veteran died by suicide while she was a teenager. Her life was negatively impacted by all this trauma until her adult years. Now she shares how she built her life and how to recover with others. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms. Trauma has a way of shaping lives, but for Tammy Toney-Butler, it became the foundation of an incredible story of healing, advocacy, and transformation. From surviving familial sex trafficking to losing her police captain father to suicide as a teenager, Tammy’s journey is a testament to resilience and the power of faith. She shared in a recent podcast interview on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available on their website and platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms. The Unseen Face of Human Trafficking Human trafficking often evokes images of strangers or shadowy figures, but Tammy’s story sheds light on a darker, less-discussed reality: familial trafficking. Victims of familial trafficking are often preyed upon by people they trust the most. According to studies by the International Organization of Migration and the Polaris Project, family members are responsible for facilitating trafficking in a significant number of cases. Sex And Human Trafficker You Would Not Suspect. Her Police Father's Death by Suicide. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium, Newsbreak and Blogspot. Tammy’s experience reflects the complexities of familial trafficking, where abuse is normalized and hidden behind closed doors. “It’s not always a stranger,” she says. “Sometimes, the trafficker is someone you’d never suspect.” Listen to the interview as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast website, also available on platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major podcast outlets. Trafficking survivors often grapple with long-term trauma, and Tammy was no exception. Coupled with the devastating loss of her father, a Vietnam combat veteran and police captain who died by suicide, her teenage years were marked by pain and uncertainty. Recovering from Trauma and Finding Purpose In adulthood, Tammy confronted her past, transforming her pain into purpose. As a forensic nurse examiner and advocate, she worked tirelessly to support other survivors, offering trauma-informed care and sharing her story to raise awareness. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms.

Their ten-acre healing sanctuary provides a safe space for survivors to address the mind, body, and spirit wounds inflicted by trauma. Sex And Human Trafficker You Would Not Suspect. Her podcast, Reflective Hour with Tammy Toney-Butler, available on multiple platforms like Apple, Spotify, and YouTube, amplifies survivor voices and offers a message of hope and healing. Tammy’s faith remains at the heart of her mission. Check out the show on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms. Raising Awareness: A Call to Action Familial trafficking is often overlooked by law enforcement, child welfare agencies, and educators. Screening tools frequently fail to identify victims, and the issue remains underreported in media and public awareness campaigns. Tammy highlights the importance of addressing these gaps. It is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms. She points out that societal attitudes toward trauma, coupled with a lack of training for law enforcement, hinder progress. Her father’s struggles as a police officer underscore the broader need for comprehensive wellness programs for public safety personnel. Studies reveal high rates of psychological distress among officers, with significant risks of suicide. “Trauma affects us all, whether directly or indirectly,” Tammy says. “We must support those on the front lines, just as we support survivors.” Keep informed by following the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, MeWe, Pinterest, Newsbreak, Medium and other social media outlets. Spreading the Message Through Multiple Platforms Tammy’s story reaches audiences across various platforms, from the podcast interview on the Law Enforcement Tall Radio Show, to social media channels like Facebook and Instagram. Her books, including a memoir and healing devotional, are available on Amazon and Kindle, offering readers a deeper understanding of her journey and insights into recovery. Sex And Human Trafficker You Would Not Suspect. Her work as a speaker and advocate continues to inspire. She addresses topics like human trafficking, trauma, and healing in national and international forums, reminding audiences that no one is beyond hope. Her Police Father's Death by Suicide. Healing Through Faith At the core of Tammy’s mission is her unwavering belief in the transformative power of love and faith. As a prophetic healing evangelist, she brings a compassionate, trauma-responsive perspective to her ministry. “Healing is possible for everyone,” she says. “We just have to create the space for it.” Platforms like the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, Apple Podcasts and Spotify make these stories more accessible.

Welcome to our Summer Replay series. We wanted to revisit some of our previous episodes. These episodes were previously recorded and aired at an earlier date. This episode originally aired on October 5, 2022.   As an educator, it's easy to get into a silo. Having a demanding teaching schedule can make collaborating and connecting with other educators seem impossible. However, those who reach outside the classroom can learn valuable lessons from other educators and expand their available resources. And Denise Spence has the experience to prove it.  Denise Spence has been an educator for almost 25 years. She has earned her master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction, emphasis in Instructional Technology. Over the years, Denise has taught the correlated course content and earned various IT certification credentials. Her accomplishments include being selected as 1 of 3 finalists for Lee County's Teacher of the Year in 2000; she was the 1st ever Career and Technical Education Teacher of the Year for Lee County in 2006; she was named Certiport's Global Summit's Teacher of the Year for 2010. Denise was also a 2011 and a 2012 finalist for the Microsoft Innovation Forum. During this episode, Denise talked about the value of collaborating and learning from other educators. She gives practical advice for how to find the time and tools to make collaboration easy.  Looking for opportunities to connect and collaborate with your fellow CTE educators?

On March 23, 2024, a coalition of around 80 people convened at the East Palestine Country Club at the first gathering called by the newly formed Justice for East Palestine Residents & Workers Coalition. Those in attendance included: East Palestine residents; railroad workers; residents of other “sacrifice zones" in Ohio, Maryland, California, and West Virginia; concerned citizens living near other rail lines; labor activists and labor union representatives; representatives of environmental justice organizations; (striking) journalists; socialists, Trump voters, non-voters, etc.; and more. As journalist Steve Mellon reported, "The newly formed coalition, dubbed Justice for East Palestine Residents & Workers, determined they will travel to Washington, D.C., on Oct. 8 to further their demand that the federal government step in and make sure those affected by the derailment are provided with fully funded health care. They plan to involve union members, including those who represent workers at railroad companies, as well as environmentalists and members of other communities damaged by chemical contamination. The coalition also determined to schedule a second conference in Iowa — the cause has been embraced by union organizers there; several traveled by bus to East Palestine to attend Saturday's event — and to seek a meeting with the president of the AFL-CIO. Organizers want the federation of unions representing more than 12 million workers to support the coalition's demand.”   In this extended episode, you will hear a compilation of speakers from the March 23 conference in East Palestine. Speakers include: Lauri Harmon, East Palestine resident; Chris Albright, East Palestine resident; Jami Rae Wallace, East Palestine resident, president of East Palestine Unity Council; Christina Siceloff, East Palestine resident; Rob Two-Hawks, East Palestine resident; Daren Gamble, East Palestine resident; John Palmer, longtime organizer and officer with the Teamsters, but not speaking on behalf of the Teamsters; Andrew Sandberg, International Association of Machinists (IAM); George Waksmunski, United Electrical Workers (UE); Chris Silvera,  Teamsters Local 808 Executive Secretary; Steve Mellon, journalist for the Pittsburgh Union Progress, on strike at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette for 18 months; Vina Colley, Portsmouth-Piketon Residents for Environmental Safety & Security; Steve Zeltzer, WorkWeek; David Pfister, Food & Water Watch; Nicole Fabricant, activist, academic, and author of Fighting to Breathe: Race, Toxicity, and the Rise of Youth Activism in Baltimore; Hilary Flint, Clean Air Action; Penny Logsdon, Lee County, Iowa, Labor Chapter; Jeff Kurtz, Lee County, Iowa, Labor Chapter; Carrie Duncan, Lee County, Iowa, Labor Chapter; Maximillian Alvarez, The Real News Network; Mike Stout, Musician.   Additional links/info below… Justice for East Palestine Residents & Workers website Mike Stout, "Stand Up for East Palestine" music video Steve Zeltzer, The Labor Video Project YouTube channel Steve Mellon, Pittsburgh Union Progress, "‘If I don't talk no one's going to know': Stories of pain from East Palestine move coalition members to action" Permanent links below...
