Flags in Montreal are now flying at half mast, in honour of police officer Mohamed Lamine Benredouane. The 34 year old was killed after a suspect started shooting in the neighbourhood of Côte-des-Neiges. A civilian, Michel Mizrahi, was also killed in the shooting. The suspect is also dead. A second police officer was also shot but is in stable condition. We speak with CBC's Gloria Henriquez in Montreal about what unfolded.

WHEN THE RADIO WENT SILENT: A Life on the Road Between Duty and Home by JAMES S. Wynecoop https://www.amazon.com/WHEN-RADIO-WENT-SILENT-Between/dp/1291853561 When the radio went silent, the job doesn’t become quieter. It becomes personal. Every badge covers a human heart that holds memories no one dise can see. Calls that end in nightmares Faces of victims that haunt your sleep, Critical decisions that weigh on your conscience long after your shift is over. In small towns, those victims could be your neighbors. Your friends. Family. And knowing that fact never really gets oasion. When the Radio went Silent is not about heroism. It is about survival, Surviving the weight of life and death decisions that you carry home with you each day. Learning to embrace silence as both a blessing and a punishment. Realizing the invisible price of public service on cops, their families, and their communities. And finding quiet desperation in the momarits when you need help the most. In raw, compassionate, and hard-learned detail, When the Radio went Silent tells you what it’s really like to wear the badge. Not only for police and first responders, but for anyone who’s ever shouldered great responsibility. buried a heavy secret, or struggled to find purpose after everything went quiet. Because when the radio went silent, your job is often just beginning. About the author Biography — James S. Wynecoop James S. Wynecoop began his public safety career in 1975 at the age of nineteen, becoming one of the youngest Tribal Police Officers on the Spokane Reservation. Those early years laid the foundation for a lifetime of service rooted in community, responsibility, and cultural heritage. In 1985, Wynecoop traveled north to Alaska's North Slope, where he served as a Security Officer, Firefighter, and EMT in one of the most remote environments in the United States. Building on his experience, he founded Argus Security, a company that grew rapidly under his leadership—employing more than 500 security officers before being acquired in 1989. Returning to law enforcement in 1990, Wynecoop accepted the position of Police Captain for the community of La Push, Washington. He later continued his federal service as a Police Officer with the U.S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs, serving the North Idaho District and the Nez Perce Reservation until the position was eliminated by a reduction in force. In 1999, Wynecoop joined the Kalispel Tribe of Indians to establish security operations for the Tribe's new casino. His leadership and vision propelled him into broader responsibility, and he was soon promoted to Executive Director of Public Safety. In this role, he oversaw the Police Department, Fire Department, and Emergency Medical Services, helping guide the growth of the Tribal community's modern public safety system. After more than four decades in policing, security, fire, and emergency services, James S. Wynecoop retired in 2022—leaving behind a legacy of leadership, service, and commitment to Tribal communities across the Northwest and Alaska.

A candlemaker guards one dying flame through the night while ravenous things in the dark demand the soul of a frozen stranger. An old woman stares through a second-floor window with no ledge to stand on, and the shadow man behind her inches closer with every passing night. And a small-town officer commits a man to a psychiatric hold for claiming a five-year-old suicide was really a murder — until the same vision starts playing out in front of his own eyes.FEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: I have three stories in this episode for you! Andrew Pendragon pens the tale, “Candles” to start things off. Weirdo Family member Randy Hogan shares a fictional tale called “Old Woman in the Window”. And then our final story is from S.F.

Copyright ©2026, Weird Darkness.Originally aired: September 10, 2020Weird Darkness gathers three works of horror fiction for Creepypasta Thursday, moving from a candlemaker's nightly bargain with the dark, to a watcher at an upstairs window, to a small-town murder reopened by a vision no evidence could explain.It opens with a candlemaker in the small town of Clovetown, the last practitioner of an inherited art he calls Chandler's candles, passed to him from his father and grandmother and kept alive mostly through monthly orders from the Catholic church down the road. His after-hours visitors come only once, telling him sad stories before they go, and on a freezing Tuesday a muddy, shivering man named Basim arrives — a wanderer whose family left Israel before settling in a Midwestern state he refuses to name. The candlemaker warms Basim with tea, tends a bruise left when local children pelted him with a rock, and sends him off with a vanilla-scented sculpted candle and a box of matches. That night the shop window shatters under another volley of stones, and Basim is found frozen to death on a bench outside. As the power fails and darkness floods the shop, ravenous shadow-creatures his family has sheltered against for centuries surround him and demand Basim's marked soul, and he survives the night only by shielding the dying flame of that single candle with his own body until dawn.From there the episode turns to a teenage boy who finds an old woman staring through his second-floor bedroom window, her face blank and dead, though no ledge or balcony exists for anyone to stand on. She returns each night after 10:30 for eight months, and the pattern eventually breaks — she appears in the living room window in daylight, then inside the house, and finally seated beside him with the same lifeless expression. A second figure joins her, a shadow man with masculine features who edges closer with each appearance, and his presence twists the old woman's blank stare into one of horror and terror. By the end, both stand within inches of the boy, and he does not know whether he will live to see another night.The episode closes with Sean Barkley, a Crisis Intervention Team officer working the night shift in rural Pennsylvania, dispatched on a freezing-rain night to a farmhouse where a man named Kevin claims to have witnessed a murder. Kevin's sister, Melissa Watson, died in that house five years earlier in a death ruled a suicide, but he now sees a recurring vision in the upstairs bedroom — Melissa pleading for her life as her husband Andrew fires a gun — and Barkley glimpses the same muzzle flash in the window. Rather than let Kevin hunt Andrew down, Barkley commits him on an involuntary hold and quietly reopens the case with fellow officer Tim, uncovering an autopsy that recorded old bruises and a broken rib never investigated, a handgun bullet buried in the mattress, and a shotgun shell hidden in an air duct. The trail leads to Virginia Beach, where a search warrant turns up Melissa's missing .380 and a destroyed external hard drive holding child exploitation material, some of it filmed in the basement of the farmhouse. Andrew is arrested and then released on bail before he is found dead in a motel room, an apparent suicide with a note only Barkley can see, and a final vision of Melissa's spirit reveals that she had drawn the investigation toward exposing her husband so that she could claim her own revenge.

Two Montreal police officers are suspended and fourteen others under scrutiny - after being accused of repeated "discriminatory and racist” acts against Black and Arab Montrealers. An active investigation is now underway. Police and city officials are promising to root out the problem and rebuild an already fragile public trust.Also: There is a long and deeply troubling history of forced and coerced sterilization in Canada. Since the early 20th Century, thousands of women and girls have been deprived of their ability to have children. Particularly Indigenous, Black and disabled women. Earlier this week, the House of Commons passed an act to amend the Criminal Code - which will soon make the practice a crime.And: Before fossil fuels, much of the world was powered by whale oil. Demand was so high, whaling nearly drove some species to extinction. Now, researchers are reading into the words of whalers from long ago, to get a better picture of the scale of that industry.Plus: Mark Carney in Ireland, Donald J. Trump's name removed from the Kennedy Centre, and more.

Tonight, on this explosive episode of Light ‘Em Up.If you are hearing this episode, it is a miracle from God. Believe me!About a week ago with no advanced warning, we suffered the most serious catastrophic equipment failure that we've ever experienced — thanks to Windows 11. The Security settings on Windows 11 cancelled our access to our “drivers” which support our show. We scrambled; we researched the problem day and night, tried one of everything and troubleshot the issue until we were asleep on our feet.Long story short, we're back!  Bill Gates can't keep a good show down!Tonight, we focus our investigative reporting skills with the intensity of a surgical laser on better understanding officer- induced jeopardy, which also can be referred to as officer- created jeopardy."Officer-induced jeopardy" refers to situations where a police officer's own unreasonable tactics, actions, or decisions prior to a force encounter unnecessarily create or escalate the danger, increasing the likelihood that force will be needed.The phrases of “officer-induced jeopardy” or “officer-created jeopardy” describe actions taken by police officers that increase the risk of injury to the officer and escalate the probability of use of lethal force by officers, which may have been avoided had the officer not placed himself or herself in a self-created dangerous situation.Be clear in the fact that this action stems from willful actions taken by the officer that put the officer and the person of interest or suspect in danger … such as:—                 rushing in without backup,—                 poor de-escalation skills and tactics,—                 or standing in front of a fleeing vehicle, which may have been avoided.Officers rarely are but can be criminally prosecuted for using force when their actions led to escalation during contact with subjects. However, the facts bear out that fewer than 3% of killings by police result in officers being charged with a crime.Recently, a fan of the show contacted us and informed us of an incident where their family — in their home -- became inadvertent ear and eyewitnesses being directly next door to where the Akron Police Department had terminated a vehicle pursuit — barricading and cornering a driver in his vehicle and ordering him to exit his vehicle while at gun point:  More than 10 officers with their weapons drawn and pointed at the person who had previously committed what would amount to minor misdemeanors.The family that contacted us were concerned because they were in the direct line of crossfire if the officers decided to fire.This unnecessary contact with a 66-year-old black man (the suspect) could have easily turned into a “contagious fire” incident, with many of those shots coming from high-powered, military style assault rifles.In this explosive episode, in order to further our understanding about officer- induced jeopardy —   as a case study we'll examine Barnes v. Felix, 605 U.S. ___ (2025), which is a recent Supreme Court decision which assesses whether an officer acted reasonably in using force under the Fourth Amendment, and that a court must consider all the relevant circumstances, including facts and events leading up to the climactic moment.And we'll touch upon a few brief case summaries and instances that support our topic …As well as:—     How the use-of-force management training has changed over the course of the last decade.—     How has the use of less-lethal tools and devices changed?And …—     What we feel law enforcement agencies in the 21st Century should focus more on when it comes to officer- induced jeopardy and the use-of-force continuum.All this, pero mucho más aquí y solamente aquí — on Light ‘Em Up!The search for the truth and justice begins RIGHT HERE … and RIGHT NOW!Tune in for all the explosive details and our sponsors Newsly & Feedspot!We want to hear from you!Support the show

A look at the bombshell allegation and the investigation. Do you want a 'two dog limit' in the city? GUEST: Mark Mendelson - Newstalk 1010 Crime Expert and former homicide detective

Two police officers - both nominated for bravery awards - have been doxxed on the internet through a Musk disinformation campaign, where he called one a "scumbag" who should be in prison. One former officer is now in hiding, fearing for her safety after death threats. Neither was anywhere near Henry Nowak on the night he died.Musk famously supports Rupert Lowe over Nigel Farage. Is the Right of British politics now tearing itself apart over who gets to sound more extreme? Is any of this helping British citizens solve a knife crime epidemic? We ask Lord Blunkett, former Home Secretary, whether there is any evidence that DEI has got in the way of good policing.And, as we mourn the tragically early death of one of Britain's best spooks, we celebrate the life of Alex Younger with his friend - another former MI6 chief - Richard Moore.The News Agents is a Global Production.The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/

Our guest today is Mike ter Maat. Mike has just released the book “Broken”. He is a PhD Economist and former Police Officer currently spearheading a strategic program to expand the Republican Liberty Caucus (RLC). With a professional background that includes the White House Office of Management and Budget and over a decade in law enforcement, he specializes in identifying and fixing the structural failures within American institutions. Tell us about your new book, “Broken: How American Politics Is Driving Civil Unrest, Financial Collapse & War. Talk to us about the Republican Liberty Caucus. How do you see the "Liberty" wing of the party acting as a firewall against 2A overreach? With your experience at the White House Office of Management and Budget, what are the specific administrative "pressure points" that the RLC and the 2A community should be targeting for reform? You've been a PhD economist and a training officer on the streets. How does your book BROKEN explain the current rise in civil unrest, and why is a principled Republican movement the key to stopping it? You argue that our political incentives are broken. What is the first step a "Strategic Consultant" for the country would take to restore the rule of law and the right to self-defense? How do people follow you? Originally Aired 6.11.26

Ep. 83 - Chief Daniel Comeaux, the 31st Chief of Police of the Dallas Police Department joins me to look back at his first year in the role – his initiatives, his accomplishments as well as his goals for the future. Chief came to the job with 35 years in law enforcement, six with Houston PD starting in 1991 where he spent much of his time in narcotics; and 28 with the DEA which he joined in 1997.As I say in the episode, I think Chief of Police is a tough job, no matter what department, no matter what city. And the first year in that position has to be the most demanding – fraught with scrutiny, challenges and potential pitfalls – especially when you come in as an outsider to the department and to the city and on top of that, when you're coming to it after 28 years on the Federal side.In this interview, you will hear just how well Chief Comeaux has navigated these waters. He has drawn on all of his experience to define his role, strengthen the department, reduce crime and successfully recruit. He has done it judiciously with keen insight, thoughtful decisions, and I would add, humor. We talk about what shaped him and his leadership style over the years. We discuss what drew him to law enforcement, and some memorable stories from patrol in Houston including the people he remembers and all those fights and foot chases. We cover his time with DEA and talk about the case he is most proud of; the challenges of working hundreds of miles of the Mexican border while in both Tucson and Houston; and his work navigating every drug epidemic over those 28 years, from crack to ecstasy, meth, opioids and now fentanyl.Thank you, Chief for a great interview and for taking the time. And thanks DPD Officer Joe King head of DPD's wellness unit and host of the podcast ATO Bridging the Divide for connecting me with Chief and allowing me to share Chief's story with my audience.

Send us Fan Mail“Have you ever shot someone?” Most cops will be asked this throughout their careers, including myself. Most cops go to retirement without having to take a life. Then others have been involved in multiple officer-involved shootings (OIS). Most of the time, there is no rhyme or reason to this. Although your chances of being involved in an OIS are much greater if you are actually doing police work and not hiding behind a desk for 25 years. Welcome back, everyone, to the conclusion of one of the most dramatic and impactful stories I have ever encountered since I started this podcast with Police Officer Michael Martinez of the San Diego Police Department. A little about Mike. Michael Martinez has been a police officer with the San Diego Police Department for about 10 years. After phase training, he was assigned to Southern Division, where he worked a variety of assignments, including Patrol, Acting Detective, and Field Training Officer. Officer Martinez has been involved in four Officer-Involved Shootings, the first three within his first 18 months after field training. He took advantage of a career-and life-changing opportunity that was offered to him by the San Diego Police Department's Wellness Unit. He was diagnosed with PTSD and now shares his story with fellow law enforcement officers. He is currently a member of the Department's OIS Peer Support Team and is currently assigned to the Department's Wellness Unit. Officer Martinez has received numerous awards and commendations, including a Medal for Valor. He truly believes his assignment is his calling to help others who are struggling in silence. His goal is to break the stigma of seeking and receiving help within the first responder profession and to be a resource to officers and their families.   I admire Mike's honesty and willingness to help other cops who have gone through the trauma of being in an OIS. Mike has been through the wringer and is now helping his fellow cops. Please enjoy this raw and powerful interview with Police Officer Mike Martinez.  In today's episode, we discuss:·      The second officer involved shooting. Has he gone back to where it happened?·      Did he react differently to this one compared to the first?·      The third officer involved in a shooting. Did any bosses or friends suggest that he take a break from the street? How was his drinking and family life?·      A breakdown of the third OIS.·      The wellness unit confronting him while he was drunk.·      His path towards a first responder-only treatment facility.·      His experience there: how long and what did that treatment look like?.·      Life after treatment.·      Being voluntold to be on the wellness unit.·      An overview of his fourth officer-involved shooting. ·      What was different about this one in how he dealt with it?·      Was there ever a time when he thought perhaps he was in the wrong line of work and should get out while he was still in one piece?·      His advice to someone who is going through a tough patch in their police career.·      How can someone prepare for a career in LE? Check out my newest book!

Michael “Morgs” Morgan is a 30-year veteran of law enforcement who honorably served the citizens of Atlanta, Georgia, and Suffolk County, New York. In this riveting episode Morgs shares some of the heartbreaking trauma he experienced, starting with his first night as a trainee. As a warrior and law enforcement officer he was forced to compartmentalize and press forward, with each incident adding a layer of pain and trauma. The drowning of a 2-year-old child he ‘helped save' caused unbelievable grief. Later in his career he is taken off the streets because of a back injury. He got hooked on the pain reliever Tramadol and ended up in rehab. A couple years ago he saw tier one operators on podcasts sharing their healing journeys with psychedelic assisted therapy and felt the call of the medicine. He sat with Ayahuasca in Florida, and it completely saved and changed his life. He was given a new mission to put the ladder down to help save and change the lives of other first responder heroes and their families. Follow Morg on Instagram team_morgs_inc

Gary Heseltine returns to That UFO Podcast to discuss the PRUFOS Police Database, an archive of UFO reports involving serving and retired British police officers.Gary, a former British Transport Police detective, explains why police testimony deserves serious attention, how he built the database, and what patterns appear across decades of reports. We discuss on-duty and off-duty sightings, witness stigma, cases involving multiple officers, and why trained observers may offer one of the most overlooked bodies of evidence in the UFO subject.We also get into some of the standout cases from the database, including historical sightings, multi-officer incidents, and the question of what this evidence might mean if it were viewed through the lens of a courtroom.Gary's links -www.prufospolicedatabase.co.ukwww.ufotruthmagazine.co.ukwww.ukpilotsreportinguap.co.uk
