Doctor in America, pushing addictive pills, The arrest and prosecution. Special Episode. In the ongoing battle against America's opioid epidemic, few cases have rocked the justice system as hard as the arrest and prosecution of Dr. Stan Xuhui Li, one of the deadliest pill-pushing doctors in U.S. history. At the heart of this historic case was former New York County Assistant District Attorney Charlotte Bismuth, whose relentless pursuit of justice helped bring down a man who had been exploiting the medical profession for profit, at the cost of human lives. This episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming on for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social podcast platforms. “It wasn't just about illegal prescriptions,” said Bismuth. “This was about a doctor in America, pushing addictive pills for cash, fully aware his patients were dying.” The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. The Start of a Historic Case In 2010, Bismuth, a young assistant district attorney, had just joined the Office of the Special Narcotics Prosecutor (OSNP) in New York City. That same year, a whistleblower's tip exposed suspicious activity at a Queens pain clinic run by Dr. S. Li. What followed was a sprawling investigation that would stretch over four years. Doctor in America, pushing addictive pills, The arrest and prosecution. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Bismuth, alongside a Senior Investigator and another Special Assistant DA, worked tirelessly to trace the damage caused by Li's clinic. According to investigators, Dr. Li was seeing over 70 patients a day, mostly on Saturdays, and trading prescriptions for cash. He routinely prescribed powerful opioids like oxycodone and anti-anxiety drugs like Xanax with little to no medical evaluation. Even when warned by emergency room doctors and families that his patients were dying, Dr. Li refused to stop. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “We had evidence that patients were overdosing, yet the prescriptions continued,” Bismuth shared in an episode of her podcast, now available on Apple, Spotify, and other platforms. “The public deserved accountability. These were real lives lost to greed.” Doctor in America, pushing addictive pills, the arrest and prosecution. The investigation culminated in Dr. Li's arrest in November 2011. Over the next three years, Bismuth and her team built a case that would change legal precedent. In 2014, after a grueling four-month trial, a Manhattan jury found Dr. Li guilty on 198 counts, including Manslaughter in the Second Degree, Reckless Endangerment, and Criminal Sale of a Prescription for a Controlled Substance. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. The court heard that Li was responsible for recklessly causing the deaths of at least two patients and endangering several more. He had even prescribed 24 different prescriptions to the man behind the infamous Medford pharmacy massacre. Special Narcotics Prosecutor Bridget Brennan called the case a “landmark conviction.” It was the first time a doctor in New York State had been held criminally liable for overdose deaths stemming from prescription drugs. You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. A Voice for Justice After the trial, Bismuth continued her advocacy. She was named Director of Training for the OSNP, where she emphasized ethics, family-work balance, and respect within the legal profession. In 2015, she stepped away from law to spend time with her family and to write the full story of the case. Doctor in America, pushing addictive pills, The arrest and prosecution. Her acclaimed book, Bad Medicine: Catching New York's Deadliest Pill Pusher, dives deep into the trial and the human cost of the opioid crisis. A second book, Killer in a White Coat, further explores the systemic failures that allowed him to operate for years. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. “Writing the book was painful, but necessary,” Bismuth said in an interview shared across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and X. “This is about accountability. About telling the truth. About never forgetting the victims.” She donates a portion of her book proceeds to the FedUp! Coalition, and continues to speak out about the opioid epidemic, sharing her story through news media and podcast appearances. A Wake-Up Call for the Medical World, Doctor in America, pushing addictive pills, The arrest and prosecution. Listen to her full interview on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website for free, also on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or most major podcast platforms. Dr. Li's case is more than just a cautionary tale, it's a spotlight on how the healthcare system can be manipulated by those who abuse its trust. Charlotte Bismuth's dogged pursuit of justice reminds us that one doctor in America pushing addictive pills can destroy countless lives, and that prosecution is sometimes the only way to stop the damage. “Justice took years. But we owed it to the victims and their families,” Bismuth said. “We cannot allow the white coat to shield criminal behavior.” Dr. Li died in prison in April 2020, serving a sentence for crimes that shocked New York and made headlines across the nation. His case remains a stark reminder of the consequences when medicine turns deadly. Doctor in America, pushing addictive pills, The arrest and prosecution.

What is your "higher ground?" Are you pressing forward or settling for what's comfortable? God's work deserves more than mediocrity—it demands sacrifice, faith, and a willingness to serve even when no one notices. So ask yourself: how far are you willing to go for the cause of Christ?In Part 2 of Emma Revell Moody's story, Tracie and Abigail explore how Emma faithfully supported her husband's global evangelistic ministry—not from a platform, but through prayer, organization, and behind-the-scenes service. From handling correspondence to managing their home during his long absences, Emma lived with purpose and quiet strength, even through her own personal storms and tragedies. Though history remembers D. L. Moody, this episode reminds us of the often unseen, unrelenting labor that furthers the cause of Christ.

In 2020, the Almeda Fire ripped through Jackson County. The catastrophic blaze destroyed more than 2,600 homes in Phoenix, Talent, Ashland and Medford. The “Think Out Loud” team traveled to Southern Oregon recently and talked to residents about how they're thinking about fire in their communities now. In Ashland, the city and the forest are tied together. The watershed, which provides the source of Ashland's drinking water, is more than 15,000 acres of potentially combustible forestland. Chris Chambers is the city’s forestry officer. He’s been a member of Ashland Fire And Rescue since 2002 and has worked on the city’s wildfire planning efforts. Along with city, federal and tribal partners, the Ashland-based Lomakatsi Restoration Project focuses on ecological resilience in Oregon and Northern California. Its restoration projects are spread throughout the region. Marko Bey is the executive director and founder of the organization. Belinda Brown is the tribal partnerships director. We hear how Chambers, Bey and Brown are thinking about wildfire resilience and how they approach their work in their communities.

While many have heard of D. L. Moody—the world-famous evangelist who shook two continents for Christ—few know the story of the woman who shaped him behind the scenes: his mother, Betsy Moody. In this episode, Tracie and Abigail explore the remarkable life of a mother who quietly built a legacy of faith. Left a widow with nine young children, Betsy faced hardship and poverty, yet never lost her joyful spirit or her unwavering love for her family. Her strength, humility, and devotion laid the foundation for her son's powerful ministry. And in a surprising twist, it was her own son's preaching that led her to place her trust in Christ later in life. Betsy's story is one of enduring love, spiritual courage, and the kind of quiet faithfulness that truly changes the world—one child at a time.Please let us know what you think by rating and reviewing this podcast in your podcasting app!

Morning news headlines, more tariff news, be afraid as Medford talks to the Eugene Emeralds on Wednesday. State Rep. Dwayne Yunker with a legislative update. Anyone on the other side into actual truth??

This Saturday saw the biggest coordinated nationwide demonstration against the Trump administration to date. In Oregon, Indivisible helped organize protests, among others, as part of the 50501 movement. Many thousands of people turned out in Portland alone, with thousands more out all over the state including in Tigard, Medford, Enterprise other small towns in southern, central and Eastern Oregon.   They protested the dismantling of federal government agencies, mass layoffs and deportations, planned cuts to Medicaid, social security and more. We talk with four Oregonians from three different communities about how the protests they attended went and what motivated them to spend their Saturday demonstrating. Susannah Graven is a massage therapist in Medford and an unaffiliated voter.  Mike Eng is a retired National Parks employee who lives near Lostine in Wallowa County and is a Republican. And Mary Minor is a retired hospice nurse who helped organize the Tigard protest, along with her husband James, a retired technical writer, both unaffiliated voters.

More from our sold out live in March. We have decades worth of unsolved mysteries and forgotten tragedies in our own backyards. In this continuation of our show at Off Cabot in Beverly, Mass, in March, we plunge into the case of Beryl Atherton—a 47-year-old schoolteacher brutally murdered in her Marblehead home during a 1950 Nor'easter, her throat cut in the sign of a cross. Decades later, her killer remains unidentified and her story largely untold. Beyond the details of these chilling cases lies a deeper exploration of how society treats victims of violent crime. Too often, especially with female victims, their characters become posthumously dissected and villainized—a disturbing pattern that continues from Elizabeth Short (the Black Dahlia, who grew up just miles away in Medford) to modern cases. This victim-blaming serves as a psychological buffer, allowing us to believe such horrors only happen to people who somehow "deserve" it. Audience members are welcome to share their connections to local crimes. We know these aren't just stories; they're lived experiences that have shaped neighborhoods and families across generations. Most importantly, this episode introduces the work of a new Massachusetts-based victim advocacy coalition formed alongside documentary filmmaker Melanie McLaughlin and forensic anthropologist Dr. Anne-Marie Myers. Our mission exemplifies what I call "everyday advocacy"—sharing accurate information, supporting grieving families, and refusing to sensationalize tragedy at the expense of human dignity.We learn from these unfiltered conversations is the importance of advocacy.  The stories we tell about victims shape how we understand not just crime, but humanity itself.  • Case of Beryl Atherton, a 47-year-old Marblehead teacher murdered in her home during a Nor'easter in 1950• Discussion of how crime victims are often villainized posthumously, particularly women• Introduction of a new Massachusetts-based victim advocacy coalition with Anngelle, documentary filmmaker Melanie McLaughlin, and forensic anthropologist Dr. Ann Marie Miers (MMMPAC)• Open Q&A covering lesser known cases and the controversy around the Karen Reid murder case and its impact on our communities. More about this show at crimeofthetruestkind.com. Have a case, location for a show, ask a questiont?

***Listen to Episode #125 FIRST for Part 1!***While many have heard of the famous missionaries Adoniram and Ann Judson (in fact, we just had two episodes on them), few know the names of those who came to Burma after them to continue what is arguably one of the greatest Baptist mission works of all time. The missionaries who followed gave just as much of themselves to ensure the Gospel was heard by every Burman possible.In this episode, Tracie and Abigail discuss the untimely ministry of Ellen Mitchell, an unassuming woman who failed to follow societal expectations, but instead gave her latter years to one of the highest callings: missions on the foreign field! While she spent her "sunset" years working on a foreign missionfield, and many of her dreams for the ministry were never realized in her lifetime, her investment came to an unlikely fulfillment years after her earthly life ended.

Bret Champion, former Superintendent of the Medford School District, joins the Exchange.

Bianca is in her second year as the head coach at Medford high school for the girls across team. She brings a ton of experience, where she has been coaching since her sophomore at high school, with the youth programs and Wakefield. She showed great commitment at a young age commuting from college every day in the spring to coach her youth lacrosse team. For a young coach, she sure shows a lot of maturity and commitment to the sport. Medford has a really good one here and this episode is a great listen

George Kramer joins the Exchange to talk about the restoration of the Holly Theatre in downtown Medford, Oregon.

Dr. Dennis Powers brings the While Past Meets Present for today, the founding of Medford. Also discussing the legal hissy fits of the day against the Trump administration and where that is headed.

Elizabeth Short grew up in Medford, Massachusetts. Her story has the most brutal of endings. Elizabeth's death has been twisted and exploited for nearly eight decades, transforming a young woman searching for her place in the world into the infamous "Black Dahlia." Beyond the gruesome headlines lies a more poignant truth – Elizabeth was simply searching for belonging in post-war America when her life was brutally cut short in January 1947.Elizabeth's story begins with abandonment during the Great Depression when her father faked his suicide, leaving her mother Phoebe to raise five daughters alone. Coming of age during World War II, Elizabeth witnessed profound social transformation as women entered the workforce and Hollywood's Golden Age created dreams of opportunity that drew her westward. Her nomadic existence in Los Angeles – moving between hotels, apartments, and boarding houses – reflected her struggle for stability in a city that promised much but delivered little.The medical precision of her murder points to a killer with anatomical knowledge, possibly connected to a medical school. Her body was bisected using a surgical technique called hemicorporectomy, completely drained of blood, and meticulously cleaned – all suggesting methodical expertise rather than frenzied violence. This clinical approach connects to a disturbing pattern of unsolved murders of women in Los Angeles between 1943-1949, raising questions about a possible serial killer targeting vulnerable women.Among the numerous suspects, Dr. George Hodel emerges as particularly compelling – a well-connected physician named as a prime suspect by a 1949 grand jury. His own son, former LAPD detective Steve Hodel, believes his father responsible not only for Elizabeth's murder but potentially for other unsolved cases from that era.Elizabeth deserves to be remembered as more than just a gruesome case study. She was a young woman with hopes and dreams, searching for her place in a world recovering from war. Her story reminds us of our responsibility when exploring true crime – to honor victims by recognizing their humanity first, separating sensationalism from truth, and treating their stories with the dignity they deserve.Send a message to the showSupport the showFollow Instagram | Facebook | BlueSky | TikTok | Threads | YouTube For show notes & source information at CrimeoftheTruestKind.comGive the dogs a bone tip jar: buymeacoffee.com/truestkindBecome a patron: Patreon.com/crimeofthetruestkindThis podcast has minimal profanity but from time to time you get one or some curse words.

While many have heard of the famous missionaries Adoniram and Ann Judson (in fact, we just had two episodes on them), few know the names of those who came to Burma after them to continue what is arguably one of the greatest Baptist mission works of all time. The missionaries who followed gave just as much of themselves to ensure the Gospel was heard by every Burman possible.In this episode, Tracie and Abigail discuss the life of Ellen Mitchell, an unassuming woman who failed to follow societal expectations, but instead gave her latter years to one of the highest callings: missions on the foreign field! Her story may surprise listeners because, although some may have thought she had missed her opportunity to answer God's call, Ellen never forgot what God had asked of her. She waited on His timing and was ready to go when He said, "Now!" ***Listen to Episode #126 for Part 2!***Join us this April 11 & 12, 2025, for the ⁠⁠2nd annual North Florida Baptist Ladies Conference⁠⁠.

This week, Drewby and Yergy head west to Medford, Oregon to discuss the case of the Criado family. This story draws a lot of parallels to many other family annihilator cases we've seen where Dad is the assailant... He begins to lose control, snaps, and murders his entire family. We saw this most recently with Rowan Baxter, who murdered his estranged wife, Hannah, and their four kids. This story, sadly, is no different. These are the stories of Tabasha, Elijah, Isaac, Andrew, and Aurora Criado.  Support Our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/themiserymachine PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/themiserymachine Join Our Facebook Group: https://t.co/DeSZIIMgXs?amp=1 Instagram: miserymachinepodcast Twitter: misery_podcast Discord: https://discord.gg/kCCzjZM #themiserymachine #podcast #truecrime Source Material: https://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-northwest-news/2013/04/medford_man_who_killed_family.html https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ore-suspect-in-killing-of-wife-four-kids-was-convicted-molester/ https://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-northwest-news/2011/08/grand_jury_will_hear_case_of_jordan_criado_accused_of_killing_wife_4_children_in_medford.html https://www.kgw.com/article/news/oregon-man-gets-life-for-killing-wife-4-children/283-71885065 https://www.firehouse.com/home/news/10921190/oregon-father-gets-life-for-arson-killing-children-wife https://www.deseret.com/2011/7/21/20205137/brother-slain-woman-knew-husband-was-sex-offender/ https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?&q=jordan+criado&&mid=733FD8332925353D8659733FD8332925353D8659&&FORM=VRDGAR https://www.bing.com/videos/riverview/relatedvideo?&q=jordan+criado&&mid=F33C91266BC3DFB6E9F2F33C91266BC3DFB6E9F2&&FORM=VRDGAR https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOlcBlGdehM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V6WRJmD7PBI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFLs1-G5aVE https://kbnd.com/kbnd-news/local-news-feed/9489 https://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-northwest-news/2011/08/medford_man_accused_of_killing_family_arraigned_on_aggravated_murder_charges.html https://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-northwest-news/2012/09/trial_date_postponed_for_man_a.html https://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-northwest-news/2011/07/funeral_held_for_mom_4_children_who_died_in_medford_fire.html https://www.theoaklandpress.com/2011/07/20/video-shows-victim-smiling-hours-before-she-is-found-stabbed-with-her-4-young-children/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1K15CtxYBxs https://www.krem.com/article/news/local/northwest/police-id-medford-dad-suspected-of-killing-mom-4-kids/169233127 https://www.oregonlive.com/pacific-northwest-news/2011/07/babysitter_says_dead_medford_children_allegedly_killed_by_father_were_all_very_loving.html https://www.columbian.com/news/2013/mar/19/father-accepts-plea-deal-in-deaths/ https://www.columbian.com/news/2012/jul/15/battling-for-his-baby/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0AwhbgshvQ&list=PLA8fSe5gI2oX9FpylNAgS0cOX1yV9GLvc&index=3 https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/73683075/isaac-jordan-criado https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/73683067/elijah_jordan_criado https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/73683093/andrew_jordan_criado https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/73683106/aurora_elizabeth_criado https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/73679449/tabasha_rochelle-paige-criado https://www.facebook.com/search/posts/?q=%20paige-criado https://murderpedia.org/male.C/c/criado-jordan.htm

Elizabeth Short in life, The Black Dahlia in death. What do people really understand about the woman before she became the poster girl for true crime curiousities? Most know her as the Black Dahlia, but few know Elizabeth Short was a young woman whose life was marked by tragedy long before her brutal 1947 murder made headlines across America.In part one, we separate fact from fiction in the life of Elizabeth Short, who was born and raised in Medford, Massachusetts. Her tragic story has been sensationalized for decades, but few know about the real woman behind the gruesome headlines.Born in Hyde Park, Boston in 1924, Elizabeth was the middle daughter of five girls. Her early years took a devastating turn when her father, Cleo Short, lost everything in the 1929 Wall Street Crash and abandoned his family, staging his own suicide by leaving his car on a bridge. For twelve years, Elizabeth's mother Phoebe believed she was a widow, struggling alone to raise five daughters during the Great Depression.The family's world was upended again in 1942 when a letter arrived from the supposedly dead Cleo, revealing he was alive and living in California. Elizabeth, seeking connection with the father she thought dead, traveled west only to find disappointment. Their reunion lasted barely a month. Her life continued on a path of heartbreak when her boyfriend, decorated WWII pilot Major Matt Gordon, died in a plane crash just weeks before Japan's surrender in 1945.Despite media portrayal of Elizabeth as a "party girl," records reveal just one minor brush with the law—an underage drinking incident. The nickname "Black Dahlia" wasn't media sensationalism but originated during her time in Long Beach, inspired by her striking appearance: dark hair, pale skin, and signature red lipstick.The cruel irony of Elizabeth Short's story lies in how she's remembered only for her brutal end, while the resilient women in her family—her mother and sisters who lived well into their 90s—carried the burden of never knowing what happened to their beloved Elizabeth. By exploring her life before the headlines, we honor the real woman who existed beyond the infamous case that still captivates America's imagination.This is part one. In the next episode, I examine Elizabeth Short's final days and the enduring mystery of how this young woman met this fate and wSend a message to the showSupport the showNext live show, Thurs 3/13 at Off Cabot in Beverly, Mass.

The Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians recently purchased roughly 2,000 acres of land near the Table Rocks preserve north of Medford. The property is part of the ancestral homeland of several tribes that were forced out of the Rogue Valley in the mid-1850s. The tribes were relocated to the newly-created Siletz reservation on the coast, forcing them to adapt to an unfamiliar climate and way of life. The tribe plans to use the Table Rocks property for conservation and the cultivation of first foods going forward. Robert Kentta serves on the Siletz Tribal Council. He joins us to share more about the cultural, spiritual and historical significance of the site.

 Insurers across the country are leaving high-risk areas that are affected by disasters like wildfires. Some Oregonians are experiencing insurance rate increases and are struggling with a shifting insurance market. In Deschutes County, homeowners in fire-prone areas are facing higher insurance premiums, according to The Source Weekly.  And residents in Southern Oregon are seeing similar issues. Earlier this month, Democratic Senator Jeff Golden of Ashland held a town hall in Medford. He spoke with frustrated residents who were concerned about the state’s final wildfire hazard map, according to NBC5 News. Oregon law prohibits insurers from using the map to adjust rates. Mitigating risks through fire-wise communities and creating defensible space are some of the ways residents can show insurers they are taking action.  We hear more about these concerns from Golden and Andrew Stolfi, the state’s insurance commissioner and the director of the Oregon Department of Consumer and Business services.    1/31 Insurers across the country are leaving high-risk areas that are affected by disasters like wildfires. Some Oregonians are experiencing insurance rate increases and are struggling with a shifting insurance market. We learn more about the challenges residents are facing in fire-prone areas.
