Video Version - Available only on Spotify and Youtube In Part 3 of the in-depth series on the Oklahoma City Bombing, The boys explore the mysterious and tragic story of Sergeant Terrance Yeakey. Known as Terry, this Oklahoma City Police Department hero was one of the first on the scene during the bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building on April 19, 1995. While his heroism is undisputed, his subsequent death under enigmatic circumstances casts a long shadow over the events of that day. Terry Yeakey's actions during the bombing showcased his immense courage and dedication. Off duty at the time, he didn't hesitate to dive into the chaos, rescuing survivors and rendering aid. His bravery earned him the Medal of Valor, yet less than a year later, Terry was found dead in a field, an event officially deemed a suicide. The peculiarities surrounding his death—multiple superficial cuts and a disconnected car exhaust hose—spawned numerous theories. Critics argue that Terry was gathering evidence that contradicted the official narrative of the bombing, and his untimely demise was a maneuver to silence him. This episode also dives into the murky waters of political conspiracies linked to the bombing. We dissect the persistent rumors involving the Clintons and the Whitewater scandal. Conspiracy theorists speculate that crucial Whitewater documents were destroyed in the Murrah building, allegedly shielding the Clintons from indictment. Despite the lack of credible evidence supporting this claim, the theory persists on platforms like Facebook and TikTok, illustrating the complex web of intrigue and misinformation that surrounds this tragedy. Moreover, we explore the bizarre and viral TikTok theory about Paul Wysopal, a seasoned FBI agent with an extensive background in counterterrorism and financial fraud. Theories that Wysopal, who joined the FBI post-bombing, is a look-alike of Timothy McVeigh, the convicted bomber, have gained traction online. These speculations contribute to the tangled narrative, suggesting deeper, undisclosed connections and cover-ups at play.

Ten year old Amber Barker was riding her bike home from a friend's house.  It wasn't a long distance, just over half a mile through neighborhood roads she was highly familiar with.  Unfortunately, she never arrived.Within hours, the Oklahoma City Police Department descended upon the neighborhood and began searching.  The next day they were joined by more than 30 FBI agents.  It was clear that something sinister had occurred.While investigators maintained optimism in the beginning, the discovery of a disturbing trail of clues suggested the child was in grave danger.  Closing in on a person of interest, detectives were devastated when the man died, taking everything he knew with him to the grave.Sponsored by:  Shopify!  Visit Shopify.com/trace and sign up for a $1 per month trial period.Trace Evidence LinkTree & Social MediaMusic Courtesy of: "Lost Time" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/#truecrime #truecrimepodcast #realcrimes #disappearance #disappeared #missing #unsolved #unsolvedmysteries #evidence #investigation #missingperson #traceevidence #homicide #detective #coldcase #creepy #truecrimestory #truecrimestories #oklahomacity #oklahomacitycrime #oklahomacrime #barker #amberbarker #bonniebarker #danielsmith #joeybishop #missingchildBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/trace-evidence--3207798/support.

Hey Y'all, Thanks for stopping back in for another episode, today we welcome back 2 time guest Matthew Gilman to discuss the suspicious death of OKC Police Sargent Terrance Yeakey. On April 19, 1995, Oklahoma City was shaken by a bombing at the Alfred Murrah Federal Building, which left 168 dead, including 19 children at the building's daycare center while their parents worked. Oklahoma City Police were among the first to arrive at the scene to rescue survivors. Sergeant Terrance Yeakey and his friend, Officer Jim Ramsey, were among the first officers to reach the scene of the bombing on that fateful morning. Sergeant Yeakey rescued at least four people before falling through two floors of the building and injuring his back. Only three days before Sergeant Yeakey was to receive the Oklahoma City Police Department's medal of valor, his body was found in a field just 30 miles outside of Oklahoma City, near his hometown of El Reno, Oklahoma. Officers responding to the scene declared his death a suicide. It's going to be another strange one y'all, just like we like it.

Former Oklahoma City Police Officer Daniel Holtzclaw Interrogation AUDIO (complete) Daniel Ken Holtzclaw (born December 10, 1986) is an American former Oklahoma City Police Department patrol officer who was convicted in December 2015 of multiple counts of rape, sexual battery, forcible oral sodomy, and other sexual charges.[4] Holtzclaw was convicted of eighteen counts involving eight different women. According to the police investigators, Holtzclaw abused his position as an officer by running background checks to find information that could be used to coerce victims into sex.[1] During the trial, the defense questioned the victims' credibility during cross-examination, bringing up their criminal records.[5] Of the thirteen women who accused Holtzclaw, several had criminal histories such as drug arrests, and all of them were African American.[6] The prosecution argued that victims were deliberately chosen by Holtzclaw for these reasons.[7] Holtzclaw pleaded not guilty to all charges. On December 10, 2015, he was convicted on 18 of 36 charges, and on January 21, 2016, he was sentenced to 263 years in prison.[8][9][10] Jason Flom (a founding Board Member of the Innocence Project), right-wing commentator Michelle Malkin and others have supported Holtzclaw's claims of innocence. On August 1, 2019, Holtzclaw was denied an appeal by the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals, which upheld both his convictions and prison sentence. The defense petitioned the Supreme Court of the United States on the basis that merging seventeen cases together "strains credulity". On March 9, 2020, the Supreme Court refused the petition.

EPISODE 34 OKLAHOMA CITY POLICE DEPT BRIAN “PICK” PICKLO “ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS SURVIVE” The Assist the Officer Foundation welcomes on one of Oklahoma City PD's finest in Brian “Pick” Picklo. Brian's story in becoming a lawman took a much different path as he also is a 2 time All American wrestler for the Michigan State Spartans and was the Big Ten Champion in the 190 pound weight class in 1996.  In a testament to his rugged refusal to fail attitude Brian accomplished this a walk on at Michigan State……taking a true Spartan path.   In 2008 he made the United States Olympic trial finals in the USA Judo team and he considered this a “hobby”. Since joining the Oklahoma City Police Department he has been a SWAT sniper, Narcotics Detective, Firearm training instructor, and now currently is a Motor Jock.  Brian is a devoted husband and father to three incredible kids who are all Division 1 athletes as both of his sons wrestle for Oklahoma University and his daughter plays soccer for the Oklahoma City Cowboys in Stillwater. Our guest is resilient and determined and his Michigan State quest, alone, will motivate and inspire you. He models and inspires optimism as he has been infectious with instilling toughness and desire in the 1000's of young wrestlers he has coached and mentored. The definition of a Spartan:   1:A native or inhabitant of ancient Sparta.  2:A person of great courage and self discipline.

It was a warm and fairly windy day in Oklahoma City on September 26, 1981. Cinda and Charlotte were excited to attend the fair together that afternoon. It was the first time they were allowed to go by themselves. Around 5:00pm both girls called home and talked to their mothers. Charlotte told her mom that they had both been offered jobs helping a carnival worker unload stuffed animals from a truck. Her mom, Paula, agreed to the request, but told Charlotte she needed to call at 9:00pm. Cinda's mom, Norma, told Cinda to do the same thing, as they were planning a sleepover and Norma needed to know where to pick them up from. The girls were last seen at the fairground at 5:30pm that evening. Neither of the girls called home at the 9pm deadline. Through many twists, turns, lies and dead ends we now know the girls are most likely victims of murder. But where are their remains? Will they ever be found? Charlotte June Kinsey was last seen at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds in Oklahoma City, on September 26, 1981. She was 13 years old and was last seen wearing a dark maroon short-sleeved pullover blouse with white stripes on the sleeves and white trim on the sleeves and neck, wearing blue jeans and Nike tennis shoes. She also had a wedding band-type ring on her right ring finger. At the time of her disappearance, she stood between 5'0″ and 5'1″ and weighed 100 pounds. She had shoulder-length strawberry blonde hair and blue/grey eyes. She has a triangular-shaped birthmark on her lower back, near her waistline, and a small dot-shaped scar below her left eye. She has silver caps on her lower front teeth, and her ears are pierced. Cinda Leann Pallett was also last seen at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma with her friend Charlotte. She was 13 years old and was last seen wearing a white t-shirt with dark blue sleeves, the ZZ Top logo on the front and the number 81 on the back, size 12 slim blue jeans, a rope belt made of braided orange/rust-colored nylon with a leather buckle with her name tooled in it. She had on two-tone blue Nike sneakers with black waffle soles. At the time of her disappearance, she stood at 5'0″ and weighed 88 pounds. She had shoulder-length brown hair and blue eyes. She has a small scar below the corner of her left eyebrow and wears a dental retainer behind her lower front teeth. Those with information regarding the case are asked to contact the Oklahoma State Police at 405-231-2121 or the Oklahoma City Police Department at either 405-297-1129, 405-297-1290, 405-297-1288 or 405-297-1000.

Officers throughout the country who have been involved in a response to a critical incident can expect to hear a standard question from their fellow officers and supervisors: “Are you good?” On far too many occasions, it can seem that this is a throwaway question and that there is only one acceptable answer. However, that is not the case for the men and women of the Oklahoma City Police Department. Lieutenant Don Holland joins The Beat to explain how the OCPD is meeting the needs of officers, their families, and the community's safety in the aftermath of a critical incident.

  CCW Safe CEO and Co-Founder Mike Darter sits down for a talk with CCW Safe Member Stephen Maddox. In 2015 Stephen was forced to defend himself after being attacked three times by an assailant. He was charged with Murder. CCW Safe was there for him and helped him win an acquittal at trial in 2017. In the mid 90's Mike Darter was involved in an an on duty shooting working a drug task force for the Oklahoma City Police Department. He went through a civil trial in Federal court that was dismissed. That incident was one of the principle driving factors for the creation of CCW Safe. In this conversation Mike and Stephen talk about how they have dealt with the aftermath of their incidents and things that they have learned looking back on them. For more details on both incidents you can watch each of them tell their story in their own words here: Mike's Story: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbQLQMV7MjM Stephen's Story: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X6a_xm7PplI

Crime scene investigation is an indispensable part of our work, which will have a direct impact on the success of the criminal investigation.  With technological progress and changes in social situations, scene investigation work is facing unprecedented challenges. The standardization of the crime scene investigation should be the goal of all police agencies. Therefore, promoting the standardization of the crime scene investigation is necessary. As a criminal justice system, the crime scene investigation also has the basic rules and characteristics of the system. So the system can be applied in the field of the standardization of the crime scene investigation. Scientific investigation means applying the knowledge, methods and technology which is caused by the development of science and technology to the criminal investigation. Crime scene investigation is the work conducted on the physical evidence at the scene. An investigation is a traditional method, in addition to which, many other measures can be used in the crime scene investigation. Scene investigation needs to integrate the use of a variety of scientific and technical means to detect, collect, and store the evidence, which is the most concentrated expression of scientific investigation. Obstacles of Standardizing Crime Scene Investigations The biggest obstacle to standardizing crime scene investigations is funding. Many organizations and government committees are working on this issue of standardization and a lot of great ideas and methods are being adapted. However, with standards in place, funding will have to made available for proper, ongoing training.  Many, if not most, police agencies will agree with the fundamental fact that a set of standards are needed, but they will also quickly say that budgets restrict  the resources of time and money to set in place and train for these standards  Why Standardizing Crime Scene Investigations is important We have all seen the issues when working with other agencies during an investigation or a new detective is hired into the department from another area.  It becomes hard to work together for a while until both parties learn the other's way of doing things, neither may be right or wrong, but different.   This costs time, money, and can stall an investigation.  Another primary reason for  Standardizing Crime Scene Investigations is that these standards will equip investigators with the latest in technology and methods which will clear cases faster, and prosecutions will be more successful. In the United States, there are over 21,500 police departments with 20 or fewer officers.  These officers do the best they can with what they have, but many lack training and standardized approaches to criminal investigations.

Buckle up. This first story is awful.  Daniel Holtzclaw had been an officer with the Oklahoma City Police Department for a few years when a woman came forward with an accusation. Her name was Jannie Ligons. She told officers that she’d been stopped by a police officer late at night, as she was coming home from bingo. He’d sexually assaulted her. Jannie was traumatized, but she remembered enough details to give detectives key information. They zeroed in on Daniel Holtzclaw. But as they dug into his past, they grew increasingly disturbed. It appeared Daniel had a pattern of targeting vulnerable black women, and in at least one case, a vulnerable black girl. Jannie Ligons’ bravery got this investigation moving forward, but she wasn’t the first woman to alert police to Daniel’s modus operandi. She was just the first to be taken seriously. Then Brandi tells us the story of Richard Mason, a multi-millionaire who appeared to have it all. He had three children. He’d co-founded a successful business. But his health was failing him. Finally, when he was in his mid-50s, doctors gave him upsetting news. He had cystic fibrosis. That part wasn’t a complete surprise. Cystic fibrosis ran in his family. But what did surprise him was the revelation that he was most likely infertile, and always had been. Richard was stunned. If he was infertile, how had he fathered three children?  And now for a note about our process. For each episode, Kristin reads a bunch of articles, then spits them back out in her very limited vocabulary. Brandi copies and pastes from the best sources on the web. And sometimes Wikipedia. (No shade, Wikipedia. We love you.) We owe a huge debt of gratitude to the real experts who covered these cases. In this episode, Kristin pulled from: “A guilty verdict for Daniel Holtzclaw,” by Matt Ford for The Atlantic “The 13 women who accused a cop of sexual assault, in their own words,” by Jessica Testa for Buzzfeed The episode of 20/20 “What the Dash Cam Never Saw” The interrogation video, on YouTube “Former OKC police officer’s attorney offers explanation for evidence in rape trial,” by Kyle Schwab for the Oklahoman “Closing arguments to begin for former Oklahoma City police officer accused of rape, sexual assault,” by Kyle Schwab for the Oklahoman “Jury deliberating in trial of former Oklahoma City police officer,” for kfor.com “Former Oklahoma City cop Daniel Holtzclaw sentenced to 263 years on rape charges,” by Andrea Cavallier, for the Associated Press “Oklahoma court denies appeal of ex-police officer,” by Tim Willert for The Oklahoman “Daniel Holtzclaw” entry on wikipedia In this episode, Brandi pulled from: “Millionaire Reveals Moment a Doctor Told Him He Couldn’t Be the Father of Three Adored Boys” by Nick Craven, The Daily Mail “Father learnt that three sons from 20-year-marriage were not his after doctor told him he was infertile” by Jack Hardy, The Telegraph “Multi-millionaire who found out sons weren't his reveals why he went public” by Amber Hicks, The Mirror “Richard Mason paternity row: Son breaks silence to claim millionaire father was 'very manipulative’” by Phoebe Southworth, The Telegraph

June 18, 2014: This episode covers day one of the investigation into then Oklahoma City police officer Daniel Holtzclaw. An investigation that began after Jannie Ligons, a 57-year-old grandmother, is pulled over at 2am and allegedly sexually assaulted. Within hours of her complaint, up to 20 employees of the Oklahoma City Police Department are all actively following up on leads and gathering evidence. Very quickly officer Holtzclaw is identified as their prime suspect. Sex Crimes Detectives Kim Davis and Rocky Gregory take over there case. Det. Davis decides Ligons is telling the truth before she ever even interviews Holtzclaw or reviews any evidence. Det.

Stan Campbell: 01:06 Well, we are, I mean, we're just all over the place. You know, we've been dealing with our awesome new clients over there in New York. Gary and I had been helping the NYPD retire guys in joining and welcoming them to the family. So we're real happy about that. And we have ladies day is coming up, right Gary? Ladies days coming up this next month. And that's in Orlando- Gary: 01:37 A little over two weeks. Stan Campbell: 01:39 That's right in Orlando, so if you guys are in Orlando area, make sure you stop by and see me at Gary because we'll be there with the ladies. We always sponsored that event, it's an awesome event there. And so I think something about 500 women show up. Mike Darter: 01:53 Wow. Stan Campbell: 01:54 You know, for safety and concealed carry classes, a little bit of everything, right Gary? Gary: 01:59 Yeah. Mike Darter: 02:00 Now, where is that at? Gary: 02:03 It's at the Central Florida Rifle Pistol Club in Orlando. Just outside of Orlando, Florida. Good group. This is what, the fourth year I've think you've, we've been going down there. Stan Campbell: 02:14 Yeah. We're pretty much their main sponsors and we understand the importance of supporting women in the industry. You know, female carriers, the numbers are going up and we welcome them with open arms so we make sure we get down there and support all of our affiliates down there. Mike Darter: 02:36 That's cool. Then we also have the police week coming up as well in May. Stan Campbell: 02:42 Yeah, police week. Yep. Mike Darter: 02:44 What date is that? Stan Campbell: 02:45 What's the dates, Gary? Gary: 02:46 May 12th through May 16th. I just worked out my calendar up there on the white board, which is now full. The next about six weeks we're going to be really busy. Stan Campbell: 03:00 That's right. Mike Darter: 03:02 All right. So if you're going to be out in a police would come by and see us. We're going to have some pretty, some kind of cool stuff to give out there. Stan Campbell: 03:09 That's correct. And then also myself, you, and Gary, we're going to be in California supporting Unite Inland Empire 2019 Conservative Conference. So we'll be out there. There's about thousand in attendance out there. It's being sponsored by AM590, The Answer. Those guys, they, we really help them out. They help us out. You know, we partner a lot. You got Phil with Firing Line radio show. I've been on there several times myself, Mike, our entire crew, I've had the opportunity to cohost, I have the opportunity to stand in as a host there on the radio show, and I mean they really take care of us. It's just, they're part of our family. So we're going out to support them with the United Inland Empire Conservative Conference 2019, so we'll be there also. That it's April 28th, so if you guys are in that area, believe it or not California is our number two state in reference to a membership base. So if you there in that area come through and see is there as well. Mike Darter: 04:14 Yeah, it's going to be good time, man. I forgot about that. Stan Campbell: 04:16 That's right. Mike Darter: 04:17 That's coming up pretty quick too. Stan Campbell: 04:18 Yeah, a lot going on. Mike Darter: 04:20 So what are we talking about today? Stan Campbell: 04:22 Well today we brought on Gary, because we want to kind of talk about, we've been going a lot of calls from retired policemen mostly, not truly having a good grasp on HR 218, the rules that apply, any changes that are being made there. So I wanted to bring Gary on to kind of talk about HR 218 and kind of break it down for folks, some myths, some problems, some things to watch out for. So it's really important that all three of us carry under that realm as well and it's important to know the do's and don'ts. So I wanted to bring Gary on for that reason. Mike Darter: 05:08 Cool. So Gary, so what, do you have any specific questions we could like start out with that you've got, or do you just want to start going over what it is? Gary: 05:20 Well, I think the important thing for everybody ... I think most officers have a general understanding of what's commonly referred to as HR 218 it's actually the law enforcement officers safety act. It was signed into law in 2004 by President Bush. It's been amended a couple of times over the last what, 15 years that it's been in existence. But it's really a pretty simple law. The HR 218 was the house resolution ... (silence) ... forces that I use myself of the NRA ... (silence) ... They're not fully on board with LEOSA because they don't have a whole lot of input with it. And that was, that's actually by design that ... (silence) ... offices they let her stay ... (silence) ... know the extended coverage for a corrections officers and ... (silence) ... to be able to carry a gun anywhere in the US ... (silence). Mike Darter: 19:32 ... often. Thank God I got a couple of family members that are policemen there. But ... (silence). Gary: 21:03 ... it multiplies your force. But I'm thinking, so what happens is if you have a jurisdiction that may not be pro gun, that wants more gun control, they see this as an extension of that. And this is one way they want to limit LEOSAs. Stan Campbell: 21:29 Got You. Now and I'm just asking your opinion now, Gary, but what's your thoughts on, if it's not too big of a deal to back up with a concealed carry in a specific state that you visited a lot. Like you go to Virginia a lot, you and I go to Orlando, we all go to Vegas, you know, so Nevada and stuff like that. What's your thoughts on that? Gary: 21:53 I have an Oklahoma permit. I don't see a downside to having the state permit. In reality it should not be necessary with LEOSA. If this bill passes, I'm not sure I will re-up my state permit, but I don't see a downside to having multiple permits. Stan Campbell: 22:15 Yeah. Yeah. I wanted to get your opinion because I'm an advocate of getting the multiple permits as a backup. I mean it doesn't take much to do so. And if you do run into that green officer, somebody who's brand new and has no idea what LEOSA is, they, normally they know what concealed carry permit is. So that way you do have some type of backup as well. You have to think about how you engage, because no matter what, when we retire, it's a culture. So when you retire, I mean once a policeman, usually always a policeman, it's just in you. And you see something that goes wrong, you feel like you need to just jump in. So, you really have to be careful, and remember that hey I'm retired now. One of the things I might need to do before I just jump on into somebody's domestic or whatever the case may be, or try to make a citizen's arrest, because that's what's going to end up being, you might want to make sure you call 911 first too as an officer. Because we kind of move and think that we can handle something and then at times we'll get in over our heads as well. It doesn't take much. Gary: 23:26 Yeah, absolutely. And then when the cops do show up, they're not going to know you from anybody. Mike Darter: 23:33 No, that's right. Gary: 23:34 I'm a firm believer as someone who carries under LEOSA and under a state permit, that before I'm going to intervene in a situation, someone has to be being hurt physically. I'm not going to try to stop a theft, I'm not going to try to stop an argument. I may watch it, call 911, tell them, hey this is getting ready to, this has potential to become violent. But I'm not gonna interject unless it becomes a, it's a matter of significant injury to somebody. Stan Campbell: 24:15 Yeah, absolutely. And you know, I mean I think of it the same way, you know, any more because of politics and because of the gray areas, you have got to absolutely think about taking care of yourselves out there. Take a extra moment. You know, if it's not a Isis, al Qaeda situation, you're not talking about somebody gunning down people in the church, of course you have to just react to that. But if it is like something simple arguments, the domestics, you know it's not some serious violence going on, somebody steals a bag of Skittles, don't think that you have to be the hero on that. So yeah. So that's kind of where we are there. But anything else on that Gary, on any LEOSA issues? Gary: 25:09 Well, I'm not being specific. I think it's incumbent on any officer who is eligible for LEOSA to carry under LEOSA, to research and know the law. Because you remember how it was when we were on the streets, Stan. We had a thumbnail idea of a lot of laws. We had a not a real good understanding of maybe other than the handful that we routinely enforce. As an officer, I think it's incumbent on you to learn LEOSA, plan ahead on how to respond to an officer who may not understand LEOSA. Research. When I started writing an article late last year only I was amazed at how much information is available on the Internet. And really even though it's not as simple as it seems, it's a pretty simple law. Stan Campbell: 26:14 Yeah. Yeah. I mean- Mike Darter: 26:19 One of the things I was going to say was one of the things we're creating for this, for our members that are going to be HR 218 is a membership card that will have information on that card for law enforcement should you have to display it. And it's going to be a card that states, the person carrying this card meets the requirements by LEOSA. You'll have to carry it with ... Gary, kind of talk about just right quick, the requirements, the things you have to have with that card. Gary: 27:06 Yeah. The law requires you to have two things. It requires you to have a photo ID from the agency that you are or were a police officer at, excuse me, and proof of qualification within the last 12 months. So what I carry is my retired card and on the back of it I put on my qualification card. And every year, as long as it's, here in Oklahoma, it's CLEET, as long as a CLEET authorized instructor signs off and qualifies me, I update my card. That's the only two things that are required by the law for an officer to carry. Now if I were in a situation like with you, I would probably take a snapshot of that letter showing my 10 years plus service to just to confirm my eligibility under LEOSA. Mike Darter: 28:11 Right. Yeah. So that's- Gary: 28:14 Nowadays with smart phones it's so easy to carry all that with you that you can produce that and for that matter you can show them the actual law for those that don't understand. Mike Darter: 28:27 Right. So that's what I carry now is I have another card that I have that I carry with my card that you signed on my qualification that's dated. And then I do have my police ID, or a copy of my police ID and I have a copy of that letter. So, and I'm actually looking forward to these cards cause they look awesome. Justin's done them. Gary: 28:58 I was gonna say, our content guy is pretty good at that kind of thing. Mike Darter: 29:01 Oh yeah, yeah. He's been killing it so. So I'm excited about this new plan coming out. I think it's going to be one thing with, generally with law enforcement officers, retired and former officers, we all know the possibilities of what can happen and it's going to be a good deal. The everything wrapped into it with the civil liability coverage and the extended bail and all that. So yeah, I'm excited to get it out. Gary: 29:39 It's going to be a good product. Mike Darter: 29:42 I've got, I've found one email that I'd like to, while I've got you guys on here, from Matt [Bell, 00:29:53] he sent in a copy of his umbrella plan document from his, and he said, "I listen to your podcast, episode number 26 I checked my umbrella policy, which I hoped would cover us in a self-defense situation. It appears that it does, but I would appreciate if you would confirm this. I," and he attached a document of his plan. And you know this is one thing that has kind of come up recently more and more and it's one thing that really for us to confirm it, we're not the ones that need to confirm it. Your insurance company is the one that's going to have to confirm this and here's what my take is on it for Mark and whoever else, or Matt and whoever else has this question, because it comes up a lot. Mike Darter: 30:51 You have to remember that your insurance company, first of all, have you guys, I know you three have dealt with insurance in the past, correct? Stan Campbell: 30:59 Mm-hmm (affirmative). Gary: 30:59 Yes. Mike Darter: 31:01 And when you're making a claim, they, whether it be a car or roof or whatever, they send adjusters out, they send people to come out and especially if it's a use of force situation, there will be attorneys involved for that insurance company. And here's my fear with anything that goes through an insurance company. I don't know about you guys, but my experience with insurance companies has not been, I mean it's been okay, I guess. I mean, I've been covered on things, but it's always not what you think you're gonna get back. There's always some, well, it was this, so that gets deducted, it isn't. Gary: 31:58 And those attorneys are working with the interest of the insurance company, not the insured. Mike Darter: 32:04 Right, and this is one thing when we created our service, when we first started this back in 2012 we said, we don't want to be grouped or seen as an insurance company because most states, if not all states, it's illegal to cover an intentional act or an illegal act with an insurance policy or coverage. So any attorney working on the behalf of an insurance company, I think it easily argue, even if your homeowner guy says, "Oh yeah, we're going to cover you," well, he's not the one that's going to be going to bat for you when that time comes, if you have to try to make a claim. The person who is going to be going to bat is going to be going to bat for the insurance company trying to deny that claim. Gary: 33:08 Mike have, I've had several members asked that exact question and I told each of them to call their broker and get them to put it in writing. Of the ones that responded, 100% have told me that their agents said they would not cover a self-defense situation. Mike Darter: 33:27 Yeah. So I just, I saw that come in and I just wanted to address that because I know we have that topic discussed a lot with you guys, especially with David, but you guys who are answering the calls and and all that. So- Gary: 33:48 I think it gets down to that issue. Just like in New York and Washington state. Insuring for intentional acts. Mike Darter: 33:56 Yup. Yup. So Matt, I would definitely say to check, Like Gary said, like Gary tells everybody, get it in writing. Call your insurance agent, get it in writing. I don't think they're going to put that in writing. So I didn't see any others. I thought I had some others that I had set aside on the, in reference to the podcast, but I can't find them now. Stan Campbell: 34:25 So well, what would we do Mike, is being that we're not interviewing anybody on the next one. If we do one by ourselves, we'll make sure we'll have a list and we'll go through them as well. Mike Darter: 34:36 Okay? Cool. All right guys. Well, Gary, thanks for your time, man. Gary: 34:42 Enjoyed it. Stan Campbell: 34:42 Thanks Gary. Mike Darter: 34:42 Stan, good to see you again. Stan Campbell: 34:46 I'll see you soon. Mike Darter: 34:47 All right, man. Take care, bye-bye. Stan Campbell: 34:47 All right, bye.

In this episode of "In Self Defense", Don West and Shawn Vincent talk about the Ersland case, and they interview special guest, Gary Eastridge.  Gary is the current Critical Incident Coordinator for CCW Safe, and is a former homicide detective with Oklahoma City Police Department, and former chief investigator for the Oklahoma County District Attorney's office.   During the Ersland Trial, Gary was with the District Attorney's office, and one of his roles as chief investigator was to assist in high profile cases, with a support element to the prosecution team.  This is how he became familiar with the Jerome Ersland Trial.   This is a great interview with some great information that can be very valuable to concealed carriers, or for anyone who owns a firearm for self defense.  Runtime: 1:32:02

In this episode of "Inside CCW Safe" Mike and Stan talk with Gary Eastridge, Critical Response Coordinator for CCW Safe.  There's alot more to CCW Safe's critical response program than just a call center when dealing with citizens who have been involved in a self defense shooting.  The three talk about critical incidents, what they are, and how they are handled by CCW Safe.  CCW Safe bases the handling of critical incidents on their experience as police officers, and experience they recieved after being involved in shootings themselves.   Gary is a retired law enforcement officer. He started with the Oklahoma City Police Department in February 1979 retiring in 2000 as an Inspector in the Homicide Unit. Gary also served as a department firearms instructor after receiving his CLEET certification in 1986. After retirement he worked as a police officer with the International Police Task Force (IPTF) in support of the United Nations Mission in Kosovo (UNMIK). Gary worked homicides with counterparts from 53 nations as well as mentoring local Police officers. Gary was named Chief Investigator for the Oklahoma County District Attorney’s office in January of 2007 where he served until his retirement in April of 2017 to accept his position with CCWsafe. He reviewed all officer involved shootings occurring in Oklahoma County as well as in custody deaths and other significant and high profile investigations / prosecutions.

In this second episode of Inside CCW Safe Podcast, Mike interviews Stan on his history in law enforcement and his emphasis on training.  For 15 years, Stan was a trainer for the Oklahoma City Police Department, four years of that actually assigned to the police academy.   The two discuss the importance of training for concealed carriers, the logging of training, and more.  Stan Campbell has over 20 years of experience as a police officer in Oklahoma City. He retired as a Lieutenant over a street crime team, and spent over 10 years on the Tactical Unit (SWAT) and has spent 15 years developing and teaching self-defense curriculum. Stan is a certified National self-defense Instructor and has also instructed officers in British Territories. Stan has extensive experience and knowledge in the critical incident command system, officer involved shootings and use of force incidents.   

The D.C. Court of Appeals agreed in a 2 to 1 ruling that police agencies that use cell-site simulators (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/true-crime/wp/2017/09/21/police-use-of-stingray-cellphone-tracker-requires-search-warrant-appeals-court-rules/?utm_term=.c78695f086a4) like Harris Corporation’s StingRay product must obtain a search warrant before use. Police on the campus of Georgia Tech shot and killed a student who was wielding and refusing to drop a knife, after the student had called police to report a student with a knife. And the Oklahoma City Police Department is again in the news, after officers shot and killed a deaf man with mental health challenges, after the man wielded a two-foot pipe at officers and failed to drop it.

If you ask a native Oklahoman where they were on April 19th, 1995, most can tell you… within a matter of seconds. The day Oklahoma City’s Alfred P. Murrah building was bombed is a day many Oklahoman’s can’t forget. The city and it’s community will forever be changed. We will always remember the moments before, and the moments after. The blast was felt for miles around. Billows of smoke in the shape of mushroom clouds hung over the building contrasting with the beautiful blue Oklahoma sky. Dusty air from the cemented clouds emerged from rubble as paper floated in the air. Cars were on fire, glass was glistening against the tarred streets and terror rested on the faces of those that managed to escape the destruction. No one knew what exactly happened and trying to save lives became many persons first and only priority. Categorized as the worst act of Domestic Terrorism carried out by a U.S. citizen in the History of America on American soil made this catastrophic scene not only a recovery scene… but also, a crime scene. In this episode, you will hear stories and details from first responders like Oklahoma City Police Department’s then Sgt. (Lt.) Bruce Davis, Trey Davis a KTOK reporter, and Jon Hansen, the assistant fire chief.
