Steven Johnson grew up in Connecticut surrounded by instability and a rough childhood that pushed him toward the streets at a young age. As a teenager, he joined the Latin Kings and quickly rose through the ranks, eventually becoming a chapter president before landing in Connecticut state prison. While serving time in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Steven made a decision that could have cost him his life — walking away from the gang while still incarcerated. In this episode, he shares what prison was really like during that era, how he survived the consequences of leaving the Kings behind bars, and how that choice completely changed the course of his life. After his release, Steven never looked back, building a new path rooted in discipline, accountability, and staying out of the system for good. _____________________________________________ #LatinKings #PrisonStories #GangLife #LifeAfterPrison #TrueCrimePodcast #JusticeSystem #RedemptionStory #lockedin _____________________________________________ Than you to AVA & LUCY for sponsoring this episode: AVA: Take control of your credit today.

I went into a contemplative period in my life and retreated to my cabin for 10 years. I couldn't find the words to express how I was feeling, so I started picking up clay. -Renee Rhodes Welcome to the life of sculptor, Renee Rhodes.  She's worked in publishing and advertising, and even has a Ph.D. from Columbia University in Clinical Psychology, but in her 40s, Renee experienced “a dark night of the soul” and retreated into a cabin on her property, deep in the Connecticut woods.   When she emerged, she was transformed and began a new chapter as a sculptor.   Recorded on a visit to Renee's 10-acre compound on a cold winter's day, this interview is a rare glimpse into the brilliant mind of an artist.   Inspired by mythology and the divine feminine, Renee's figures evoke both strength and grace.   She's devoted to public art and believes that “when you produce public art, it's available to everybody.  It's out in the street, and people can relate to it on their own level, which is an honor for a sculptor because now, you're speaking to the world.”   Her latest sculpture is named Infinity, and she has taken years to refine.  Says Renee:“I live with it, I sneak up on it in the middle of the night,  and then it tells me how it needs to change.” Before Infinity can be enlarged and bronzed,  money must be raised for her installation on Ocean Beach, New London.   www.infinitepossibilitiesCT.org celebrates unity, peace, hope, and inspiration through public art.  Says Renee:  “Whateveryou can imagine, you can make happen.”  For a 23-minute glimpse into the life of a sculptor, just hit that download button.  #scupltor #publicart #thestorybehindhersuccess #clinicalpsychology #compoundlife

(Christmas Murder in Lockhart) *** A little girl vanishes on a winter road trip to Las Vegas, and twenty Christmases later, a detective's search for answers leads to a desperate couple's final confession - but not to the truth about what really happened to two-year-old Nikole Betterson. (Nikole's Christmas Farewell) *** Behind one of the most beloved Christmas poems ever written lies a centuries-old mystery: was "'Twas the Night Before Christmas" penned by a scholarly professor for his children, or did someone else create the story that shaped how we see Santa Claus? (‘Twas The Mystery Before Christmas) *** When Patty Vaughan left her home on Christmas Day 1996, she left behind three children and a trail of mysterious clues - including an abandoned van, suspicious blood stains, and a red work uniform that would puzzle investigators for decades to come. (The Patty Vaughan Vanishing) *** When farmhand John Larson awoke to find soot on his pillow on Christmas morning 1885, he never imagined he'd discover his employer Patrick Rooney dead from smoke inhalation and his wife Matilda mysteriously burned to ash in a perfectly circular hole in their kitchen floor - with no other fire damage to the house. (Matilda Rooney's Christmas Combustion) *** In the quiet town of New London, Connecticut, what began as a simple flat tire on Christmas Eve 1973 turned into one of the community's darkest mysteries when twenty-year-old Kevin Showalter was struck and killed by a driver who vanished into the night - leaving behind a grieving mother, whispers of a cover-up, and questions that would haunt the town for decades.

This conversation provides a comprehensive overview of the Fifth Amendment, focusing on the due process protections and the takings clause. It explores the historical context of these legal principles, key cases that have shaped their interpretation, and the distinctions between procedural and substantive due process. The discussion delves into regulatory takings, categorical takings, and the Penn Central test, providing insights into how courts analyze these issues. Additionally, it addresses the complexities of temporary takings and exactions, emphasizing the importance of fair compensation and the evolving challenges in environmental law.The Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution is a cornerstone of American legal principles, safeguarding individual rights against government overreach. Among its provisions, the Takings Clause stands out as a critical element, ensuring that private property cannot be taken for public use without just compensation. This blog post explores the intricacies of the Fifth Amendment and the Takings Clause, shedding light on their significance and impact on property rights.Understanding the Fifth Amendment: The Fifth Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights and provides several protections for individuals, including the right to due process, protection against double jeopardy, and the right against self-incrimination. However, one of its most debated components is the Takings Clause, which addresses the balance between public needs and private property rights.The Takings Clause Explained: The Takings Clause states, "nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation." This clause ensures that when the government needs to acquire private property for public purposes, such as building infrastructure or public facilities, it must provide fair compensation to the property owner. The clause raises important questions about what constitutes "public use" and how "just compensation" is determined.Key Court Cases and Interpretations: Over the years, the U.S. Supreme Court has interpreted the Takings Clause in various landmark cases. One notable case is Kelo v. City of New London (2005), where the Court ruled that economic development can be considered a public use under the Takings Clause. This decision sparked widespread debate and led to legislative changes in several states to protect property owners.The Fifth Amendment and the Takings Clause play a vital role in balancing the interests of the public and private property owners. As legal interpretations evolve, these provisions continue to shape the landscape of property rights in the United States. Understanding their implications is crucial for anyone interested in constitutional law and property rights.Subscribe Now: Stay informed about the latest developments in constitutional law and property rights by subscribing.

  Whaling was big business. Connecticut and her sister New England states built ships, forged cast iron tools, produced wooden storage casks and outfitted sailors. Stonington, Mystic, New London, and New Haven were part of New England's predominance in successful whaling. We're going to get into the nitty gritty of the trade in this episode and hear about some of the striking artifacts from Mystic Seaport's whaling collection - tools, ship logs, harpoons, blubber hooks and scrimshaw - that are on view. They speak to the staggering risks and rewards of the whaling industry that lit America's lamps and greased its machines for over a century. We're also going to talk about the largest whaling artifact of all - the Charles W. Morgan, the last American whaling ship in existence. It was considered “ancient” in the 1920s but has been faithfully restored.   This summer we are featuring two episodes on whaling. To get the big picture on whaling, we talked to one of our favorite guests, Eric Jay Dolin, in episode 211, about his book Leviathan, the History of Whaling in America. And in today's episode, we'll visit Mystic Seaport Museum's new exhibition “Monstrous: Whaling and Its Colossal Impact” with curator Mike Dyer. The exhibit explores the sheer scale-physical, economic, and human-of the nation's whaling industry and its legacy. Dyer is the Curator of Maritime History and an Instructor in the Frank C. Munson Institute of American Maritime History at Mystic Seaport Museum. Visitors can tour the new exhibit and visit the Charles W. Morgan  for an unforgettable immersive experience.   *Warning: Listeners may find the content of  this episode disturbing. Whaling was a brutal trade.

Send us a textWhat happens when the government decides it needs your land? Does the Constitution really allow officials to seize your family home, farm, or business property against your will? The answer might disturb you.Attorney Clint Schumacher, a leading eminent domain expert, joins us to unravel the complex world where constitutional rights, property ownership, and government power collide. Schumacher pulls back the curtain on a legal process that affects countless Americans but remains widely misunderstood.We explore the landmark Kelo v. City of New London case that dramatically expanded government's ability to take private property, allowing cities to seize homes for economic development rather than traditional public uses like roads or schools. This controversial Supreme Court decision sparked nationwide outrage and legislative reforms, yet many property owners remain vulnerable.The conversation takes a deeply human turn as Schumacher describes families losing properties held for generations – land that forms part of their identity, not just their assets. We examine the Henry family farm in New Jersey, owned by the same family for 175 years, now threatened by condemnation for affordable housing. This poignant example highlights how even worthy public goals create profound private sacrifices.We also demystify the compensation process, revealing the often significant gap between government appraisals and true property value. Schumacher explains why property owners frequently feel shortchanged even when receiving "just compensation," especially when forced to pay their own legal fees from their settlement amounts.Whether you're a property owner concerned about your rights or simply want to understand this fascinating intersection of law, economics, and human dignity, this episode provides crucial insights into a power that Schumacher calls "a necessary evil." Despite its importance for infrastructure development, nothing government does to innocent citizens feels more invasive than taking their property against their will.Have questions about your legal rights?

  American whale oil lit the world. The Industrial Revolution couldn't have happened without it. Connecticut was part of the whaling industry of the nineteenth century that sent thousands of American ships manned by tens of thousands of men to hunt whales across the world's oceans. Stonington, Mystic, New London, and New Haven were part of New England's predominance in successful  whaling. In fact, New London, Connecticut is known today as the “Whaling City”.    My guest Eric Jay Dolan  is the author of sixteen award-winning books on maritime history.
