SPEAKERS Teddy Nappen, Speaker 2 Teddy Nappen  00:17 I’m Teddy Nappen, and welcome to Gun Lawyer. I wanted to kind of address this to the audience, as this has been kind of brushed over. There’s been multiple mass shootings, but there was one that caught my eye. They are trying to effectively bury in the stories. Like, I don’t even see it that much coming the news. The mass shooting in Canada! Every single one of the Left’s arguments on how to stop a mass shooting, everything that they push for, demonstrated in Canada failed. The Left always argues that stricter gun laws will prevent a mass shooting. If it saves one life. Even though  2.7 million lives are saved with self-defense uses of a firearm. If it saves one life. They always argue the accessibility of firearms –  that’s what leads to mass shootings. Teddy Nappen  01:15 So, I want to kind of lean into this story where nine people were shot and killed, 27 were injured in the mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia. (https://www.junonews.com/p/exclusive-family-confirms-identity) It was a man identifying as a woman, which, you know, that’s one of the other reasons why they’re burying the story. It doesn’t fit the narrative of the straight, white, right wing conservative as the shooter. So, obviously we can’t talk about it. You hear from the North District Commander Ken Floyd of the gun person. Yeah, person. Always good to not misgender the school shooter. He murdered his mother, but also shot his step brother as well. Don’t bring up that fact. Also, a troubled house life, and the school that he shot up, of course, he was thrown out of the school. Police had been called to the home multiple times. They had multiple instances with this individual who had reported mental health problems. Huh, interesting. Teddy Nappen  02:21 Oh, and it gets better. So, the suspect had a firearm license, which, by the way, in Canada, you cannot possess a firearm for self-defense – only hunting. Keep that in mind. Supposedly, the guns recovered were a long gun and a “modified handgun”. They don’t go into details as to what was modified. So, the suspect, the shooter, the man identifying as a woman, I’m going to repeat that, the suspect had dropped out of the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School four years ago and was not a student at the time. So, police had attended the suspect’s residence multiple times in the past several years, dealing with mental health occurrences. Hmm, wonder why? When he started identifying as a woman? You know, that usually leads to that 42% suicide rate. The only group that is close to that rate is paranoid schizophrenics. But you know, facts are transphobic and homophobic, apparently. This included one of the attendants where, two years ago, the firearms were seized under criminal code. He was Red Flagged! Oh, he had multiple mental health instances. So, obviously we’ve got to seize his guns. The very argument by the Left to stop mass shootings. But, of course, because the man identified as a woman, then of course, well, we can’t, we don’t want to be transphobic. Let’s give him, oh, sorry, her back his firearms. Teddy Nappen  03:53 And, of course, suspect was born a biological male and then started transitioning six years ago. So, six years  ago, he started transitioning and identified as a woman. Two years ago, the firearms are seized, so then he can say, oh, sorry, I think I’m a woman, so give me back my firearms, even though the police have come multiple times for multiple mental health incidents. Other than that, though, let’s give him back his guns. So, right there we have a clear demonstration of the fact that his firearms were seized and then he got, you know, Red Flagged. They actually have it. I pulled the law under their Public Safety website emergency prohibition order. (https://www.publicsafety.gc.ca/cnt/cntrng-crm/frrms/rd-flg-lws-en.aspx) A judge issues the order if they believe the individual poses a risk to themselves or others. When the order was issued, firearms, and firearm license and other documents and other weapons may be removed up to 30 days, and you have a hearing date. He goes to the hearing date and says, I want my guns back. And here they are given back and then does the shooting. The level. It’s just so disgusting. The system works every time. He got the guns back, and then boom, goes right into a mass shooting. Teddy Nappen  05:12 By the way, Canada is one of the most strictest places you could find for a firearm. You cannot get firearms for self-defense uses. They ban every form of semi-auto possible. Their laws are extremely, extremely difficult in order to get firearms. Also, Trudeau did a freeze on the sale, purchase, or transfer of handguns, stopping all handgun purchases. It’s still in effect. So, you can’t get a handgun to defend yourself. You have no means of purchase except for hunting, and every single one of the anti-gun, the gun rights oppressors, the Left’s whole argument about trying to stop mass shootings. We need all of these things. Well, Canada had all these things. A ban on extended mags. All the bans that you could have on every semi-auto possible, and it still wasn’t enough. And still led to a mass shooting. Every protocol failed. Teddy Nappen  06:13 And by the way, this isn’t the first. Quite frankly, Canada is the inventor of the mass shooter. On December 6, 1989, at Montreal’s Ecole Polytechnique 14 women were killed as a student went through shooting up the place. (https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/polytechnique-tragedy) And that was their justification for all their anti-gun agendas. This is what they said, oh, we’ve got to go after firearms. He just walked through the school and just started shooting the people. They had no means of defense. Then in 2006 a gunman killed one woman and injured 19 others at Montreal college being (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2006/sep/15/topstories3.internationaleducationnews) He was shot dead by the police saying he wanted to die like Romeo and Juliet. Okay. The man must have been an acting major, a fan of Shakespeare. Teddy Nappen  07:00 And then cut to, I love this one. In 2020, Canada’s deadliest mass shooting. The shooter was Gabriel Wortman. His wife, Lisa Banfield, goes into details in her book, “The First Survivor: Life With Canada’s Deadliest Mass Shooter.” Wortman walks through and kills 22 people in the span of 13 hours, dressed up as a Mountie. He went across a 200 kilometer stretch. Shooting people for 13 hours, 13 hours. Going up and down, shooting and killing people. And no one was there to defend themselves. No one has any guns. This is in 2020. But the Left doesn’t want you to know that. Teddy Nappen  07:44 Just like they don’t want you to know that every time when they hailed Venezuela as the great socialist experiment, when you have Bernie Sanders, who was honeymooning in the Soviet Union and arguing that Cuba has the best healthcare. They always move the goal post or they’ll memory hole it. Trying to make the argument. Oh, this doesn’t fit the narrative. So, we can’t talk about this. That’s how disgusting these people are. And by the way, they even have their mandatory buyback program in Canada. By the way, it’s a complete failure, too. They got like 200 guns. No one’s complying. And that was the thing that The Trace even argued. They said that the hardest part about running a mandatory gun buyback is compliance. Because unless you’re going to go door to door at the barrel of a gun and stealing people’s property, gun buybacks, mandatory gun buyback programs fail every time. So, this ends the debate. This factually ends the debate that every single means of gun control that they argue to stop a mass shooting will not stop a mass shooting. Teddy Nappen  08:52 Not to mention that it is part of our culture where guns are. It’s, yeah, I’m trying to remember the numbers, and it was like 350 million. I can but it’s the we already have a mass number of firearms in the United States. So, the Nirvana fallacy, logical fallacy of trying to argue, if we just get rid of all the guns, there’ll be no mass shootings. No. Because the Left need to understand that there is evil in this world. There is evil. Yeah, they always say. They always try to justify it. Like, oh, I’m poor, I’m impoverished, I’m an illegal who came to this country. They always argue that, trying to justify evil and just accepting the fact. They try to mislabel evil. There is evil in this world, and you have to accept that there will always be terrible people wanting to commit terrible acts. Cut to, you know, taking a car and just running into a crowd of people at a Christmas parade. Cut to the U.K. with random stabbings and their mass pile of rapes that they don’t want to talk about. There will always be evil in this world, and they have to accept it. That is what needs to be brought. So, going on that cheery note, let’s talk about our good friends at WeShoot. Teddy Nappen  10:19 Well, WeShoot is a range in Lakewood. It’s an indoor range where both myself and my father go to shoot. We love to go there. WeShoot is conveniently located right off the Parkway. They have some cool specials that I want to tell you about. The Smith M&P 9M 2.0 Compact is ready to roll. They have that. They’re also offering an M&P 9M 2.0 in metal. So, you can have your choice in metal or polymer. There is the Vortex Triumph, which is in all new optics. Pretty cool. The Vortex makes some good stuff. My father has some Vortex on his guns. They also have the Ross Martin RM1C, which is a striker fire, compact pistol that is really taking the gun world by storm. You should check out the Ross Martin. It’s a really good gun. And, of course, you want to check out the WeShoot girls. They’re featuring a number of folk, including Kristen Fernicola. Go to their website, www.weshootusa.com. You can see all these wonderful guns and models posing with wonderful guns. You will be glad you went to look at all that, I’m sure. And make sure you check out the range at WeShoot. Go to the range. You can go some fantastic training, too. Great pro shop right there in Lakewood, New Jersey. weshootusa.com. Teddy Nappen  11:44 I also want to mention our good friends at The Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs. (ANJRPC.org) They’re quite busy fighting in the courts and with the legislation in Trenton. Murphy’s gone, but we did get some new laws. Of course, it’s a very tough environment, but we all get some changes that are critical. I’m glad to see modifications, although completely stopping when the folk have all the power is tough. The Association has made a big difference. We’re thankful, too. Because without The Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs, we would have no unified voice of an umbrella organizations, of our clubs and organizations. You need to be a member of The Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs. Go to anjrpc.org and join today. You’ll get a newsletter. The best newsletter in the state on guns. You’ll see email alerts, and you’ll know that what’s going on when it comes to our gun rights in New Jersey. That’s anjrpc.org. Teddy Nappen  12:39 I would also like to shamelessly plug my father’s book, which is New Jersey Gun Law. The Bible in New Jersey gun law. It’s over 500 pages with 120 topics, all questions and answers. It’s your guidebook to not becoming a GOFU in New Jersey. And man, let me tell you some of the times people call up and ask, and it’s after the fact. I’m like, did you read the book? Did you read the book? We’ll still fight and defend you, but it would have been a lot easier if you never had the problem in the first place. And most of the clients would agree with that, I’m afraid. So, get your copy of the book today. Go to EvanNappen.com,  EvanNappen.com. Get your copy of New Jersey Gun Law. Teddy Nappen  13:23 So, let’s get to Press Checks. As you know, Press Checks are always free. This is something I find very important, because I think people are forgetting, when the Left had their unfettered power. That’s why you’re seeing a lot of the Left moving to the trying to pivot to the center. Saying, like, oh yeah, we know, mass migration is bad. Yeah, yeah. And trying to, like, epically fail when asked how many genders there are. They can’t define what a woman is. But we have to remember that it’s not just the Left, but it’s the insidious institutions that they abuse. The fact that this is a term that I’m pushing for because it’s a fact. It’s gun deserts. The Left realize now that they can’t win in the public square of debate. Because with gun control, we can easily, we can easily defend and fight against it. And we can push back on every one of their points, because every one of their points are nonsensical. They’ve lost the media where we have alternative tech. There’s Rumble, and you have all the voices. X has become slightly more free. And because a lot of the big tech companies want to use AI, they’re allowing, okay, yeah, we’ll let the conservatives have their points and speak. Teddy Nappen  14:57 So, this is the one bid. It’s the financial institutions. If you all remember the heavy issue of de-banking. I caught this article, and I was like, oh yeah, I remember that issue. (https://www.nraila.org/articles/20260209/jp-morgan-in-growing-trend-backtracks-on-anti-gun-policies) I love how JP Morgan says they’re going to roll back the de-banking that they were committing against gun shops and firearm companies. So, to give a little history lesson, this comes right from the NRA-ILA’s article of JP Morgan’s backtracking. I mean, this goes back to Obama Biden, like the 2010s, where firearm-related businesses were having trouble with Bank of America. Even though they said they didn’t have any corporate policy, we know they’re lying, of course. And then the allegations were getting worse, and Bank of America said, no, no, we don’t have any policy. Then finally, in 2014 they admitted under Operation Choke Point where they threatened to throttle any institution that exercises Second Amendment rights by pressuring banks to drop business, to drop businesses in the firearm industry. So, thankfully, President. Trump got in and stopped that operation. But it proved the point. We were right. The banks were weaponized against the firearm industry. They were trying to go after any form of gun shops or any firearm industries. You know, they can’t get a loan. Then my favorite one was when they were trying to do the credit card scheme. They were trying to track firearm purchases on credit cards. Teddy Nappen  16:34 Also, I love this one where they would pressure firearm industry groups to not sell certain semi-automatic firearms, and also cutting back on standard capacity mags. They like to say high capacity, but it’s just standard capacity. Prohibiting the sale of magazines. Then, of course, the Left would tote saying, look at the firearm industry. They support our anti-gun movement. Well, you’re trying to de-bank me and lose my business. So, I have to agree with you. You know, if you point a gun at someone and demand them to say things, they’ll say things. It’s so disingenuous. At the point where there was a 2019 hearing where the institutions were hauled in. Coming to answer questions that they delved in when it came to banks working with firearm industry and forcing them to push the anti-gun policies. It’s the level of disgusting nature that comes into play. We need to remember that. We need to remember these institutions. Because when the pendulum swings, which it will, at some point, they will get back to business as usual. Attacking our rights. And even President Trump, right back in office, 2024. He comes back in and says to Davos. He gives a huge speech and points to the CEO. JP Morgan and everybody else, I hope you start opening your banks to conservatives. What you’re doing is wrong. Pointing it right out. Not saying, oh, the firearm industry. No, conservatives. Because that’s what it is. It’s conservatives that they are de-banking. It’s conservatives they are attacking and weaponizing. Teddy Nappen  18:21 And even going back to the, I think it was the National Shooting Sports Foundation that even addressed this exact issue. In 2021, they testified in a Congress hearing stating that JP Morgan’s Chase would not lend to manufacturers of modern sporting rifles. There’s your proof, right there. So, remember this. Do not trust the big tech companies. Do not trust the banks. Because right now, the culture has shifted, but they are fully willing to get back. If you look at the donors to Kamala Harris, they all donated to Kamala. They all donated. They all heavily donate to Democrats. Only now, because we’re in power, they’re like, oh yeah, we’re for you guys. Yeah, okay. Enjoy chasing that AI trend while you guys won’t de platform us. But we need to remember that. So, we need to embrace and look to other means, because this is the games they play. We need to find ways around that. Teddy Nappen  19:25 It’s time to finish off with the GOFU, everyone’s favorite. We need to. Also, this is a kind of a lesson in observational awareness. Jeff Cooper preached that idea of observational awareness. He even made a little game of X’s and O’s. Where, if you go into any room or place, you make sure you see everyone and make an O. And as you’re walking through, if you miss somebody who saw you first, give that one an X. Play that game in your head as a scoring method. Yeah, because observational awareness is key. I’m going to highlight that with an actual article from USACarry.com. (https://www.usacarry.com/man-fatally-shoots-attacker-while-playing-pokemon-go-in-anderson-indiana/) A man was attacked while playing Pokémon Go in the woods. He was walking through the woods and was playing Pokémon Go. A 51-year old businessman was playing Pokémon Go, a scavenger hunt, on his phone, and he was ambushed by a homeless man who punched him in the back of the head and stole his phone. At which time, he, you know, drew his firearm and fatally shot the man. It was ruled fully justified, because, first of all, you’re getting punched in the back of the head. People have died from that. And look, there may be more to the story of why it was justified, but the police and the prosecutor found that it presented and seemed like a strong case of self-defense. The fact that he was ranting and raving. But this is the point. This is a clear demonstration. He could have avoided that whole encounter, and it could have gone very bad very quickly. Because all it took is one Left wing prosecutor to say he shot an unarmed man, and his life would have been ruined. Observational awareness, situational awareness. Keep your head on a swivel. That is the GOFU. Don’t be a GOFU. Teddy Nappen  21:19 This is Teddy Nappen reminding you that gun laws do not protect honest citizens from criminals. They protect criminals from honest citizens.

Police Shot At and Investigating Violent Crime: The Truth. In today's nonstop Social Media environment, from Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn to YouTube, Apple, and Spotify podcasts, conversations about policing often focus on headlines rather than reality. Viral clips and breaking News stories frequently highlight moments when officers fire their weapons or when suspects are shot. Far less discussed, however, is a critical perspective: what happens psychologically and physically when police are shot at. The Podcast is available and shared for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. That is exactly the conversation explored in this Podcast episode featuring retired Texas law enforcement leader Charles “Chuck” Andrews, a former chief of police who spent decades handling violent incidents, including shootings where victims were struck multiple times. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “The public often sees the final seconds,” Andrews explained. “They see the moment an officer fires. What they don't see is everything leading up to it, especially the reality of being shot at and having to make decisions in fractions of a second.” Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . The Reality Officers Face When Bullets Fly Discussions surrounding use of force typically center on policy, legality, and accountability. Andrews says those discussions are necessary, but incomplete. Police Shot At and Investigating Violent Crime: The Truth. “We talk a lot about when officers fire their weapons,” he said. “We also talk about when officers are shot and wounded. But rarely do people talk about what it's actually like when rounds are coming toward you.” According to Andrews, the experience is both physiological and psychological. Officers must process threat recognition, environmental awareness, and survival instincts simultaneously while protecting others nearby. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. “When you're being shot at, your brain is processing danger faster than conscious thought,” he said. “Training takes over because there isn't time for debate.” The Science Behind Being Shot Understanding shootings requires understanding what a bullet actually does to the human body, a topic often misunderstood in movies and online debates. Police Shot At and Investigating Violent Crime: The Truth. A gunshot wound involves a rapid transfer of kinetic energy from a projectile into human tissue. The damage is determined largely by velocity, not simply size. Energy Transfer: Because velocity is squared in physics calculations, faster rounds deliver exponentially greater destructive potential. Permanent vs. Temporary Cavities: A bullet crushes tissue along its direct path while also creating a temporary cavity, a shockwave that stretches surrounding tissue. High-velocity rounds can cause severe internal damage far beyond the visible wound. The Momentum Myth: Contrary to Hollywood portrayals, bullets do not knock people backward. The momentum transfer is minimal compared to body mass, meaning individuals typically collapse due to physiological failure, not impact force. “People expect dramatic knockdowns,” Andrews said. “In reality, incapacitation usually comes from blood loss, nervous system disruption, or organ damage, not from being thrown backward.” Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Different tissues respond differently to ballistic trauma. Elastic tissues such as muscle may stretch and recover, while organs like the liver or brain are far more vulnerable to catastrophic damage. Bone impacts frequently result in fragmentation, creating secondary projectiles inside the body. Police Shot At and Investigating Violent Crime: The Truth. Bullets may also yaw or fragment after entering tissue, increasing injury severity. Supersonic Reality: Why You May Never Hear the Shot One of the lesser-known truths Andrews discusses involves sound and perception during shootings. Most modern rifle rounds, and many handgun rounds, travel faster than the speed of sound. These supersonic projectiles create a sonic crack as they break the sound barrier. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. “If a round is supersonic, it hits before you hear the gunshot,” Andrews explained. “That surprises people, but physics doesn't wait for perception.” Rifle rounds commonly travel thousands of feet per second, well beyond the speed of sound. Many handgun rounds, including common 9mm ammunition, are also supersonic. Subsonic ammunition travels slower than sound, meaning the gunshot may be heard before impact. Police Shot At and Investigating Violent Crime: The Truth. Because of this, officers under fire often react to impacts, debris, or instinct, not sound. “That's part of why these encounters are so chaotic,” Andrews said. “Your senses don't behave the way people expect.” Investigating Violent Crime: Complexity Behind the Scenes Beyond the moment of force, Andrews emphasized the intricate and often misunderstood process of investigating violent crime. It is discussed across News platforms and shared on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Apple, and Spotify, where true crime audiences continue to get their content. Every officer-involved shooting triggers layers of examination, forensic analysis, witness interviews, ballistic reconstruction, and policy review. “The Truth is investigations are extremely detailed,” he said. “Every movement, every decision, every angle gets analyzed. It's not quick, and it shouldn't be.” He noted that investigators must balance objectivity with the realities of human performance under extreme stress. Police Shot At and Investigating Violent Crime: The Truth. “You're analyzing decisions made in milliseconds with the benefit of months of hindsight,” Andrews said. “That's why experience matters.” From Policing to Influence: A Career Beyond the Badge Today, Andrews applies his law enforcement and security expertise globally as a security strategist and influencer. His Book, Yes S.I.R.: The Security Influencer's Guide to Success Using Strategy, Intelligence, and Relationships, outlines how professionals can build careers through networking, leadership, and collaboration. The book has earned praise across the security and law enforcement communities, with industry leaders describing Andrews as a pioneer and connector within the profession. “Relationships are everything,” Andrews said. “Whether you're investigating crime or building a career, success comes from strategy, intelligence, and trust.” Changing the Conversation As discussions about policing continue across digital platforms and Social Media, Andrews believes education is key to bridging public understanding. Police Shot At and Investigating Violent Crime: The Truth. You can find the show on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, X (formerly Twitter), and LinkedIn, as well as read companion articles and updates on Medium, Blogspot, YouTube, and even IMDB. “People deserve transparency,” he said. “But they also deserve context, the science, the psychology, and the reality officers face.” In an era where viral clips can shape public perception within minutes, deeper conversations, through podcasts, long-form discussions, and educational content, may help audiences better understand the complexities behind deadly force encounters. “The goal isn't to justify or criticize,” Andrews added. “It's to understand. Because understanding is where better conversations begin.” Charles is also heavily involved with a 5019(c3) charity that helps children of Law Enforcement Officers and Military. It is called Gratitude Initiative. Established in 2013 they honor the sacrifices of our Military and Law Enforcement families by helping their children succeed in college, their career, and life.  His message is available across The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, their facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, where professionals related to his honest discussions.

Episode 377 of RevolutionZ starts with a brief segment that describes some major robot and AI innovations as warm up for more related commentary to come in the future. When AI can imitate any face and voice, what anchors truth? Who decides what justice looks like when evidence itself is in doubt? When robots can dance and do gymnastics while they juggle feathers make and implement plans, nurture children and help the infirm, what can't they do? What do we do?Then the episode pivots to courts, cops, and cages. Miguel Guevara interviews Robin Zimmerman, a former criminal defense attorney, who lays bare how the adversarial model is fueled by warped incentives to reward convictions and legal theatrics over truth. He traces his break from “organized cruelty” to building justice along with RPS. He describe activism to reorient pay and prestige from wins to effort, and explains how reimagine trials to surface facts, context, and repair. He explores how lie detection tech and deepfakes collide with due process, and why no single blueprint will fix jurisprudence. Instead, he and RPS argue we need context-driven methods, transparent checks and balances, and an ethos that centers dignity.Next, Peter Cabral provides a ground level view: the gang as survival, prison as a factory of harm, and the strategy that changed everything—nonviolent work stoppages that spread by discipline, solidarity, and visible dignity. He explains how prison strikes reframed demands from modestly better conditions to real participation, living wages, rich education, and preparation for life beyond the walls. He tracks how reforms gained ground via civilian control of policing, demilitarization, restorative justice, and a still bolder proposition to replace prisoner exile with structured, humane communities focused on accountability and growth. Separation for safety remains; degradation does not. Who sets incentives? Who verifies claims? Who pays the price when systems fail? Our judicial activists don't pretend to have every answer. They do insist on a north star: fewer victims, fewer cages, and institutions that measure success by truth, repair, and human dignity. Support the show

Introduction: Minutes 0 to 1:45 Chandra has been going through a tough time and we've been protecting our peace. We celebrate our 20 year anniversary next week! I founded Celebitchy in February, 2006 and Chandra has worked here since late 2008.  Royals: Minutes 1:45 to 14:00 Prince Andrew was arrested at Wood Farm in Sandringhham on Thursday for "suspicions of misconduct in public office." New documents in the latest Epstein file release suggest that he traded confidential information with Epstein in a kind of quid pro quo for access to trafficked girls. Police also searched Andrew's former residence, Royal Lodge. Andrew had to be forced out of Royal Lodge earlier this month after being spotted riding his horse and waving to tourists. He was originally supposed to move out last year. In the latest cache of Epstein files it came out that Epstein had trafficked a 20-year-old woman to Prince Andrew in 2010. Andrew could face years in jail. King Charles issued a statement after Andrew's arrest saying, in part, "the law must take its course." His previous statement from February 9 was that he stands "ready to support" the police "as you would expect," and "their Majesties' thoughts and sympathies have been, and remain with, the victims of any and all forms of abuse." Other family members have also said they were thinking of the victims. Charles and Queen Elizabeth's defense has been that they believed Andrew's lies. This defense falls flat when you consider that they had MI6 at their disposal. Andrew still has royal protection somehow. We learned too many things that we don't want to know about Epstein and his evil associates. We don't get into the details. I pay a segment from Zoom from last week we talked about the royals and Epstein.  Chandra hopes that Andrew has to face real consequences and thinks this may be the end of the monarchy as everyone is involved. We've heard that Prince William's charity received donations from known close associates to Epstein. Will and Kate are mishandling this despite hiring a crisis manager. William recently did a BBC interview were he talked about men's mental health. This was widely criticized as tone deaf. Oscar-nominated movies: Minutes 14 to end Chandra has seen Sinners, One Battle After Another, Marty Supreme, The Secret Agent, Bugonia, Frankenstein and half of Sentimental Value. I've seen Sinners, One Battle After Another, Marty Supreme, Frankenstein, Train Dreams and half of Hamnet. I didn't like Train Dreams or Hamnet, although I only saw half of Hamnet. Chandra loved Sentimental Value and says the acting is amazing. She hopes Wagner Moura wins best actor for The Secret Agent. She loathed Marty Supreme and thinks Timothee Chalamet should not win for that performance. I liked Marty Supreme a lot. My favorite movie is Sinners and I want Michael B. Jordan to win. Chandra wants Teyana Taylor to win supporting actress. This awards season has been chaotic. I also saw If I Had Legs I'd Kick You and didn't like it. Chandra liked Bugonia but mostly for the ending. She also loved Lanthimos' Poor Things and thinks Emma Stone deserved the Oscar for that.

39 year old Caleb Flynn is waking up behind bars this morning, charged in the shooting death of his wife Ashley.

Welcome back to another completely normal episode of your favorite daily comedy show — where we try to cover the news and instead end up arguing about how grown adults wipe.It's Friday, February 20th, and we kick things off with breaking news out of Overland… or at least what King Scott thinks is breaking news. Police standoff? Barracuda? Barricade? Nobody knows. But what we DO know is that Overland crimes are apparently “nice crimes.” So that's comforting.From there, things spiral — as they always do — into a full-blown Costco obsession. Beard nets. Free samples. Elite memberships. Business Costcos (??). Is it a warehouse store or a secret society? Why are people lining up 45 minutes for half a grape in a Dixie cup? And most importantly: why are people fighting with shopping carts like it's Thunderdome?Then we enter what may be the most detailed bidet conversation ever recorded on radio. Rafe is remodeling his bathroom and suddenly finds himself staring down a futuristic Japanese toilet that looks like it was designed by NASA. Heated seats. Oscillating spray. Adjustable nozzle trajectory. Butt dryer. Predator-style control panel. The gang debates the ethics of plug-in toilets, self-cleaning mechanisms, and whether standing up to wipe makes you a psychopath. It's educational. It's unsettling. It's everything a daily comedy show should be.And just when you think it can't get grosser — hotel coffee machines enter the chat. A travel influencer suggests washing underwear in the in-room coffee maker. Yes. Brewing. Underwear. We unpack the horror of “panty coffee,” why you should never use hotel coffee makers again, and whether Big Bean (aka Starbucks) is secretly behind the propaganda.But wait — there's more chaos:• A woman abandons her Goldendoodle at the airport because she didn't fill out paperwork.• A pediatric dentist allegedly shows up hammered.• A school custodian hides in a locker room closet.• A former police chief sets houses on fire as revenge.• Thieves are feeding stolen iPhones into EcoATMs for $20.It's a rollercoaster of weird news, questionable humanity, and sarcastic humor — exactly what you expect from this daily comedy show coming straight out of St. Louis.Bathroom tech. Costco conspiracies. Rage bait influencers. Swamp justice hypotheticals. And one extremely adorable abandoned dog named JetBlue.Just another totally average day with Rizz and the gang.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Police in Britain say the former prince, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, has been released under investigation following his arrest on suspicion of misconduct in public office. After being held for a day, he was photographed slouched in the back of a car leaving a police station in eastern England. Earlier his brother, King Charles, said the investigation would have the Royal Family's full support and co-operation. Police are looking into allegations that when he was a British trade envoy, he shared confidential documents with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Officers have searched his current and former homes at Sandringham and Windsor. Mr Mountbatten-Windsor has previously denied wrongdoing in relation to Epstein. Also in the programme: President Trump's Board of Peace meets for the first time, pledging to end conflicts and rebuild Gaza; and the fantasy epic Game of Thrones gets a Shakespearean twist.

Thames Valley Police say he was taken in on suspicion of misconduct in public office and they are searching his addresses.

Around 70 lawsuits against the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department are facing delays and confusion amid a year-long legal battle between lawyers for the state and city: The battle is over which entity is financially responsible to pay millions of dollars in settlements reached by judges and juries in lawsuits over police abuses. St. Louis Post-Dispatch columnist Tony Messenger shares insights from his reporting about the situation, which he calls a “legal morass.” Arch City Defenders attorney Maureen Hanlon, who represented the family of a 63-year-old man police killed in a SWAT raid in 2017, shares her experience from the middle of this legal confusion. Messenger and Hanlon discuss the current situation's roots, the history of local control of the SLMPD, and why judges are looking to lawmakers for lasting solutions.

TW - This episode we drop a few 'f' bombs, and a few other words we would not normally use.  But we are dealing with an act of domestic terrorism that has been concealed by polite history.  We discuss the rRise of Black Wall Street in the Greenwood District of Oklahoma.  How discovering oil in the early twenties brought people of all colors to to the young state of Oklahoma unintentionally creating a community of Black entrepreneurs, lawyers, doctors and other professionals,,This created a segregation and suspicion drove them into the community of Greenwood where they built black schools, black theaters, black hotels and black shops.  Their community was so good and prosperous that even whites would shop there when they could get a product better or cheaper.  However, one night, a young man named Dick Rowland who worked in Tulsa had to use the restroom.  Being black, he couldn't go to the bathroom where he worked he had to go to one of the 'Black Only' bathrooms and the closest one was on the top floor of the nearby Drexler Building.  The elevator was operated by one Sarah Page and as Dick rode the elevator, it shook briefly, causing Dick to wobble, he grabbed Sarah's arm to right himself, and Sarah, not expecting the contact, yelled as she was very startled.  That's it...well Dick left the elebator a clerk saaw him and reported the incident to the police.  Police arrested Roland and Black World War I veterans showed up armed, to prevent the vigilante lynch mob from attacking the jail and lynching Dick.  It was this event that set off the Tulsa Race Massacre...an overnight series of assaults, unreasonable arrests, theft, arson and murder that devastated the district of Greenwood.  And we, along with Carmita from Missing in the PNW and Murder in the PNW, tell this true story from the dark history of America and Oklahoma in this 0h-yeah-this-happened, domestic terror and if-this-doesn't-make-your-blood-boil-nothing-will episode of the Family Plot PodcastBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITHeadlines are loud; the real story is what they reveal about us. We kick off with a jolt of accountability news from across the pond and ask why American power so often talks big and moves slow. That frustration links straight into a charged airport tale: a traveler leaves a two‑year‑old goldendoodle at a Las Vegas ticket counter after being told service dog documentation is required. Police track her down, tempers flare, and charges follow. The twist brings relief—the pup, renamed Jet Blue, finds rescue and a new home—but the questions linger about public space, policy, and the ethics we carry to the gate.From there, the tone pivots to an oddly heartwarming snafu: Snoop Dogg's credit card declines at an Italian restaurant. No drama, no ego. The owners comp the meal; Snoop responds with five tickets to the 2026 Winter Olympic snowboard halfpipe final. It's a small masterpiece in how to recover from an embarrassing moment with style, and a reminder that hospitality and reputation are built in how we repay kindness. Payment systems glitch, famous or not; character shows in the follow‑through.We close on a softer, deeper note: the New York accent slipping from everyday speech. Media keeps it iconic, but mobility, social pressure, and workplace norms nudge people toward smoother, more “neutral” voices. We unpack why accents fade, what they carry—memory, identity, neighborhood rhythm—and how to keep that music alive without gatekeeping. If justice is about what we enforce and grace is how we make things right, then culture is the sound we refuse to lose.Listen for sharp takes on accountability, a clear‑eyed look at service animal rules, a feel‑good celebrity redemption, and a thoughtful walk through language, place, and belonging.

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has been arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office in what may be one of the most extraordinary moments in modern royal history. Police vehicles were seen at Wood Farm on the Sandringham estate as Thames Valley Police confirmed the arrest of a man in his 60s from Norfolk, with searches under way in Berkshire and Norfolk. BBC News reports Andrew remains in custody.The arrest follows renewed scrutiny over millions of documents linked to Jeffrey Epstein and focuses on allegations that confidential, potentially market-sensitive government information may have been shared during Andrew's tenure as the UK's trade envoy between 2001 and 2011. He has consistently denied wrongdoing, and no charges have been brought.With the National Crime Agency now involved and commentators noting the unprecedented optics of the King's brother in police custody, constitutional questions are resurfacing. The charge of misconduct in public office carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment, though an arrest is not evidence of guilt. As Prime Minister Keir Starmer says “nobody is above the law,” the monarchy faces one of its most serious crises in decades.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

In an extraordinary development, King Charleshas issued a formal statement following the arrest of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor on suspicion of misconduct in public office. The King said he had learned of the news “with the deepest concern,” adding that the matter must now follow “the full, fair and proper process” and that the authorities have the Royal Family's “full and wholehearted support and co-operation.” He concluded: “The law must take its course.”Police confirmed that a man in his sixties from Norfolk was arrested, with searches carried out in Berkshire and Norfolk. Although officers declined to name the suspect, the Palace statement removed any doubt. Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright confirmed a formal investigation has been opened, stressing the need to protect the integrity of the process. The charge — misconduct in public office — is a serious common law offence carrying a maximum sentence of life imprisonment, though no charges have been filed and an arrest is not evidence of guilt.Buckingham Palace confirmed it was not informed in advance. Prince William and Catherine are understood to support the King's remarks. Prime Minister Keir Starmer reiterated that “nobody is above the law.” The King continued with a scheduled appearance at London Fashion Week, declining to answer questions from reporters as he maintained public duties.The arrest marks a dramatic escalation in a saga stretching back decades, from Andrew's association with Jeffrey Epstein to the fallout from his BBC Newsnight interview and his 2022 civil settlement with Virginia Giuffre, who died by suicide in 2025. Her family welcomed the arrest, calling it proof that “no one is above the law.”As investigations expand across multiple police forces and political reaction intensifies on both sides of the Atlantic, commentators warn this moment may come to define the reign of King Charles. Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor remains in custody. No charges have been filed. The investigation is active. And as the King stated, the law must now take its course.Palace Intrigue remains on a modified publishing schedule as this story develops.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Au brigadier qui reçoit sa déposition et à la commandante qui ouvre une enquête, Édith ne dit pas tout. Elle n'avouera pas avant un long moment que, depuis le départ de son conjoint, pour la première fois depuis des années à vrai dire, leurs trois enfants ont enfin eu le droit de jouer, et de danser librement dans leur maison.Édith Scaravetti plie du linge dans son salon, complètement hermétique. Parfois, elle relève la tête, jette un oeil par la fenêtre qui donne sur la maison voisine, où ses enfants ont été emmenés ce matin. Autour d'elle, enquêteurs, magistrats, et experts de la police scientifique s'éparpillent. Ils ont examiné le jardin, le garage, la cuisine, les chambres, les combles, incapables d'identifier l'origine de cette odeur épouvantable.Crimes • Histoires Vraies est une production Minuit.

Help Persecuted Christians TODAY: https://csi-usa.org/ Christian Solidarity International On today's Quick Start podcast: NEWS: Royal scandal rocks the U.K. as Prince Andrew is reportedly arrested following renewed scrutiny tied to the Epstein files. Police confirm a man in his 60s was taken into custody as investigators search properties and widen their probe — sending shockwaves through Buckingham Palace and reigniting global attention on the long-running controversy. FOCUS STORY: Mixed signals out of Geneva as U.S.-Iran nuclear talks end without a clear breakthrough. Vice President JD Vance calls the discussions “mixed,” while President Trump's red lines remain firm. Meanwhile, U.S. military assets are shifting into the region. Is this high-stakes diplomacy — or the prelude to something far more dangerous? MAIN THING: As ICE ramps up enforcement, elite universities are stepping in to defend illegal immigrants in court. Law students are earning course credit to challenge deportations — and millions in taxpayer dollars are funding the effort. Are America's law schools upholding the rule of law — or actively working against it? LAST THING: John 14:5–6 — Jesus says, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life.” In a world shaken by scandal and uncertainty, Christ remains the only sure foundation. PRAY WITH US!

Protecting the Voiceless: Bill Waybourn on Human Trafficking and Hidden AbuseThis week, Marcus and Melanie sit down with one of Texas' most respected law enforcement leaders and advocates for the vulnerable — Sheriff Bill Waybourn.With more than three decades of service, Bill's career has been defined by courage, conviction, and a relentless commitment to protecting both communities and the voiceless.From pioneering groundbreaking DWI reform programs to shaping Texas firearm legislation, Bill has stood at the intersection of public safety, constitutional rights, and moral responsibility.But beyond the badge, Bill's story is also one of deep compassion — especially when it comes to children in need.Bill served 31 years as Chief of Police in Dalworthington Gardens, where he became a recognized expert witness and leader in statewide criminal justice reform.He is credited with pioneering the Texas “No Refusal” DWI program, a model that has significantly reduced drunk driving fatalities and has since been adopted by multiple states.Bill has also testified before the Texas Legislature on a myriad of key issues.Bill is especially honored to have helped pass the Chris Kyle Bill, which streamlines the process for military servicemen and women transitioning into law enforcement careers.His dedication to veterans and service members reflects a lifelong commitment to those who have sacrificed for this country.During his first term as Sheriff, Bill launched several nationally recognized initiatives, including a Human Trafficking Unit, a Department of Intelligence, aggressive inmate service programs, less-than-lethal training expansion, and cutting-edge departmental reforms.Bill and his wife Laura Waybourn are the proud parents of ten children, eight of whom have been adopted.Together, they are passionate advocates for children without families, and their lives are rooted in service far beyond law enforcement.A Heartbreaking Story of Survival: AlyssaOne of the most emotional moments in this episode comes as Bill shares the story of his foster daughter Alyssa, who endured horrific medical abuse as a toddler.He recounts how Alyssa was severely malnourished, weighing only 18 pounds, dehydrated, and tragically harmed by her biological mother through Munchausen syndrome by proxy — a form of abuse where caregivers fabricate illness for attention or control.Under proper medical care, Alyssa began to flourish — but her story shines a light on a rarely discussed form of child abuse that demands awareness and action.This conversation is equal parts intense, inspiring, and deeply human — a reminder that real leadership means protecting those who cannot protect themselves.In this episode you will hear:• My dad believed in practical lessons. After bragging that I was the best cowboy on the ground today, and my dad put me on a Bramer steer. I lasted about a second and a half on that ride. He went from there teaching about humility, and how it's a biblical principle, and I needed to learn about that. (9:10)• One of the things that the Air Force did well is that they taught you leadership, independence, and discipline all at the same time. (15:56)• I was 24 years old, and the Police Chief resigned. The city council interviewed a bunch of people and about an hour and a half later, they called me back and said, “You're the Chief.” (20:34)• [Marcus] Q: Explain to me the difference between a constable, a police officer, and a sheriff. (A: Starts at 22:40 and runs thru 28:14)• There've been some great moments throughout my career. My [most memorable events] were surrounded by life-saving stuff. (30:57)• As Sheriff, I was blessed to make a human trafficking unit. We are now moving close to 1,200 rescues. (31:42)• Our daughter, Alyssa, at 3 ½ years old, weighed 18 pounds, and was on 17 meds and a feeding tube. She went septic. It was later proved that her biological mother put human feces and urine into her feeding tube. (34:34)• We were honored that God called us to take her in. (40:36)• I met Chris Kyle right after he came home in '09.

Send a textWhen a split-second choice could become tomorrow's headline, how do you stay human under the uniform? We sit down with former deputy sheriff turned coach and author AK Dozanti to unpack the real toll of first responder life—and the science-backed tools that help you heal without losing your edge.AK traces a rare path: undercover ICAC work at 19, road patrol, officer of the year, rapid burnout, then a pivot into victim advocacy, graduate study in criminology and victimology, yoga teacher training, and ultimately a mission to coach police, fire, EMS, and dispatch. She shares how early suicide losses set a hidden baseline for stress, why trauma is a near-universal experience rather than a diagnosis, and how high-velocity calls collide with a nervous system built for survival, not perfection. We break down the biology of stress—adrenaline surges, the brainstem's grip, and the prefrontal cortex going offline—and show how that clashes with modern expectations: body cams rolling, phones pointed, pristine Miranda, and zero room for error.We also tackle the weight of public narratives: how one viral failure can stain an entire profession, how ambushes and doxxing amplify hypervigilance, and why the “off switch” at home can be the hardest skill of all. AK offers practical, field-tested resets for the nervous system—slow exhale breathing, orienting, grounding through the feet, and micro-recoveries between calls—along with culture shifts leaders can make today: protect days off, normalize precise language around suicide, include dispatch in wellness training, and reward process over speed. The goal isn't spin; it's operational readiness and human dignity.If you serve on the front lines or love someone who does, this conversation gives you language, tools, and hope.
