A Texas jury delivered a not‑guilty verdict for former Uvalde school police officer Adrian Gonzales, clearing him of all 29 counts of child abandonment or endangerment tied to the Robb Elementary School shooting. Jurors deliberated just over seven hours before unanimously acquitting him. Gonzales, one of the first officers on scene, was accused of failing to confront the gunman and protect students during the 77‑minute delay in law enforcement’s response. Prosecutors argued he ignored active‑shooter training, while the defense said he was unfairly scapegoated for a broader systemic failure.

Hosts:   Dr. Ashlee Gethner, LCSW – Child of a Police Officer Jennifer Woosley Saylor, LPCC S – Child of a Police Officer   Episode Overview   It's the kickoff to 2026 for "When The Call Hits Home"! Jennifer and Ashlee reunite after the holidays each with a few survival stories to share about sick kids, hospital visits, and football games. This episode takes a deep dive into mental health in the world of first responders, focusing on Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and the concept of Post Traumatic Growth.   Key Topics Discussed PTSD: Clinical & Real-World Definitions What PTSD means according to the diagnostic manual, how its definition and understanding have evolved. Early understanding of trauma as mainly war or abuse, contrasted with today’s broader view (cumulative events, “big T” and “little T” trauma). Common symptoms: not just flashbacks & nightmares also avoidance, numbness, irritability, concentration issues, and impulsivity. First Responders & Mental Health Unique challenges faced, stigma around seeking help, and how even “expected” work-related trauma can have serious mental health impacts. Barriers to mental health support historically, and how policy is slowly catching up (e.g. recognizing PTSD as a compensable injury). The Power of Resilience & Growth Resilience as “bouncing back” – Rocky Balboa style! Introduction to Post Traumatic Growth: moving beyond survival to genuine transformation. Five domains of post traumatic growth: Appreciation of life Relationships with others New possibilities Personal strength Spiritual change Real-world examples of first responders not just surviving trauma, but thriving and inspiring meaningful change in themselves and their communities. Family Matters How PTSD and growth impact the family dynamics of first responders; encouragement for family-wide healing and mutual support. Personal stories, including the hosts’ own experiences as children of first responders. Therapy: Beyond Diagnosis The importance of not just earning diagnoses, but focusing on recovery, growth, and positive psychology. Shout-outs to the transformative process of therapy and the courage it takes to seek help. A Symbolic Reflection The Japanese art of Kintsugi, repairing broken pottery with gold, serves as metaphor for healing: your flaws and brokenness can become strengths and sources of beauty.   Don’t Forget Shop the merch store for some WTCHH swag!

This rollercoaster of a story will touch on many topics and have many emotions but when we get to the “Never Give Up on You” exit music the listener will be reminded that Police work is the same everywhere, the trauma is the same everywhere and even trained first responders need help to survive. In July of 2022 an incident occurred that changed the direction of this officer's life but also reminded him of very old wounds that existed from the life of being in law enforcement for over two decades. The cumulative trauma officers endure daily can be as damaging as a rifle being leveled at you during a traffic stop and if, untreated, can weigh on you and become too much. The weight of the badge is heavy not only for the one that wears it but also the ones they go home to. We have seen the weight ruin relationships with family and friends and we have also seen that NO ONE is immune to the effects of this weight. The message today will be clear: YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Here to present this story today is Joe, Kent, and the Great Dallas SWAT Operator Steve Claggett. Todays guest is the husband to his beautiful wife Jen, father to Chloe and Hailee, and a true public servant to the state of Iowa. Special Shout Out to Cedar Rapids Blair Klostermann as she and Matt recently won their Department's Medal of Valor Award.  Matt Jenatscheck the ATO stage is yours to tell us about the “Rolodex”. Critical Incidents:  The brutal murder of Lynnsey Donald on April 21, 2015. The suspect attacked her, as her 7-year child watched, and stabbed her to death in a parking lot. The suspect received life in prison with no parole. Officer involved shooting in July 2022 in Cedar Rapids Iowa. Acronyms used: EMDR- Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing

Police Officer Arrested and Convicted, Sent to Prison, Was It Fair?. The Case of Stephanie Mohr. Was a police officer unfairly prosecuted and sent to prison by the Department of Justice? That question sits at the center of a Special Episode available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. Former Prince George's County, Maryland police officer and K9 handler Stephanie Mohr is telling her story, one that spans nearly three decades, from a routine call for backup outside Washington, D.C., to a federal conviction, a 10-year prison sentence, and ultimately a Presidential Pardon. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “This was never just about one incident,” Mohr says. “It became about making an example of me.” A Routine Call That Changed Everything In 1995, Mohr was a relatively new K9 handler when she responded to a suspected burglary in Takoma Park, Maryland. At the time, the area was experiencing a series of break-ins. Two suspects were discovered on the roof of a building, and during the arrest, Mohr's police dog bit one of the men as he attempted to flee. Police Officer Arrested and Convicted, Sent to Prison, Was It Fair? Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . What followed was anything but routine. Years later, Mohr was charged and ultimately convicted in 2001 of a federal civil rights violation, becoming a police officer arrested and convicted, sent to prison for actions she maintains were lawful and consistent with her training. “I did what I was trained to do,” Mohr explains. “I never imagined it would cost me my career and a decade of my life.” An Extraordinary Prosecution According to Mohr and her supporters, the D.O.J. pursued her case with unusual intensity. After an initial trial, prosecutors sought a retrial and even brought a witness, an illegal immigrant, back into the United States from another country to testify against her. Police Officer Arrested and Convicted, Sent to Prison, Was It Fair? Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “Who does that?” Mohr asks. “It felt like they were determined to secure a conviction at any cost.” During the second trial, federal prosecutors introduced testimony portraying Mohr as a problematic officer with a pattern of targeting minorities, claims she has consistently denied. “That narrative was devastating,” she says. “It wasn't true, but it stuck.” The result was a 10-year federal prison sentence, which Mohr served before being released in 2011. A 19-Year Fight for Justice Mohr's case eventually caught the attention of the Law Enforcement Legal Defense Fund (LELDF). After reviewing the facts, the organization committed to what would become a 19-year battle to clear her name. Police Officer Arrested and Convicted, Sent to Prison, Was It Fair? Special Episode. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. “Stephanie wasn't guilty of anything,” the LELDF later stated. “Her case represented a dangerous precedent for law enforcement officers nationwide.” Mohr became the first police officer supported by the LELDF to ultimately receive a presidential pardon. In December 2020, President Donald J. Trump granted Mohr a full and unconditional pardon, bringing long-awaited closure to a case that had followed her for 25 years. “For me, the pardon wasn't about politics,” Mohr says. “It was about finally being able to say: I was telling the truth.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Life After Prison and After the Pardon Following her release, Mohr rebuilt her life quietly. She worked as a Property Standards Inspector and later a Construction Standards Inspector for Prince George's County before moving on to a similar role with St. Mary's County government. Police Officer Arrested and Convicted, Sent to Prison, Was It Fair? “My dogs saved me as much as I saved them,” she says with a smile. You Be the Judge The story of Stephanie Mohr raises difficult questions about accountability, prosecutorial power, and whether justice was truly served. The special episode can be found on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and across most podcast platforms where listeners will find authentic law enforcement stories. Was this a fair conviction, or did the D.O.J. go out of its way to make an example of a police officer? “That's not for me to decide anymore,” Mohr says. “I've lived with the consequences. Now I just want people to hear the full story.” Supporting First Responders This Special Episode is also part of a broader mission focused on saving and rebuilding the lives of First Responders. Stephanie Mohr's story is more than a headline, it's a cautionary tale, a fight for redemption, and a reminder that justice is not always as simple as a verdict. Be sure to check out our website .

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton unpack a silent but powerful burnout driver in law enforcement — perfectionism (Amazon Affiliate). From writing flawless reports… to never missing a detail… to making split-second decisions under pressure… to constantly being evaluated by body cams, supervisors, and public opinion… Police work breeds a mindset where mistakes feel unacceptable — even when they're human. And that relentless pursuit of "never good enough" slowly erodes confidence, mental health, and home life. This episode explores how perfectionism shows up in police work, why it's so damaging, and how officers can pursue excellence without destroying themselves in the process.

Is 19 Too Young To Be a Police Officer? A Florida, USA Perspective on Trauma Impact and PTSD. Special Episode. At just 19 years old, Michael A. Laidler was already wearing a badge and responding to some of the most intense calls a police officer can face. Sworn in as a police officer in Tallahassee, Florida, USA, his early entry into law enforcement placed him on the front lines at an age when most of his peers were still navigating college life or their first civilian jobs. The question at the heart of this Special Episode is simple, yet deeply complex: Is 19 too young to be a police officer? Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Michael's story, shared through the Podcast available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major podcast platforms, offers a rare firsthand look at how early exposure to trauma can shape both a career and a life. “At 19, I thought I was ready,” Michael reflects. “I passed the tests, I met the requirements, but nothing truly prepares you for repeated exposure to trauma at that age.”  Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Trauma at the Start of a Career Early in his career, Michael encountered extreme stress and traumatic incidents that would leave lasting impressions. He recounts two particularly disturbing events that occurred while he was still a teenager in uniform, experiences that many officers don't face until years into the job. Is 19 Too Young To Be a Police Officer? A Florida, USA Perspective on Trauma Impact and PTSD. Special Episode. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. “You don't just see trauma,” he explains. “You absorb it. And when you're that young, it hits differently.” These experiences didn't just affect his work performance; they influenced his personal life, emotional regulation, and long-term career decisions. Like many officers of his generation, Michael says there was little discussion about mental health, PTSD, or the long-term Trauma Impact on young officers. “Back then, the mindset was to tough it out,” he says. “You handled it the best you could, often without the tools or language to understand what was happening inside.” The Science Behind Age and Trauma In the United States, the minimum age to become a police officer typically ranges from 18 to 21, depending on the state and department. Florida is unique in that it sets the minimum age for sworn law enforcement officers at 19 years old, while corrections officers may be hired at 18. However some agencies have higher minimum ages. Research suggests that while 18 and 19-year-olds possess adult-level reasoning abilities, the brain, particularly the prefrontal cortex responsible for impulse control, emotional regulation, and decision-making, continues to develop well into the early 20s. This ongoing development may make younger officers more vulnerable to the effects of repeated traumatic exposure. Is 19 Too Young To Be a Police Officer? A Florida, USA Perspective on Trauma Impact and PTSD. Special Episode. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Studies cited by the National Institutes of Health indicate that trauma exposure can double the risk of major depressive disorder and is a key criterion for developing PTSD. Adolescents and young adults may be especially susceptible, as trauma can intersect with critical stages of identity formation and emotional development. “You're still becoming who you are,” Michael notes. “When trauma gets layered onto that process, it can redirect your entire path.” Florida Standards and the Bigger Debate Under Florida Statute 943.13, individuals seeking certification as law enforcement officers must meet strict criteria, including U.S. citizenship, a high school diploma or GED, good moral character, and a clean criminal history. In cities like Miami, applicants must be at least 19 years old to apply. The interview can be found on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and across most podcast platforms where listeners will find authentic law enforcement stories. While these standards ensure legal and ethical readiness, they don't fully address developmental readiness or long-term mental health outcomes. Critics argue that agencies should more seriously consider age, maturity, and access to trauma-informed support systems when hiring young officers. According to broader research, trauma experienced during sensitive developmental periods may carry a higher risk for long-term psychological effects, including PTSD, substance abuse, and relationship difficulties, especially if left untreated. Is 19 Too Young To Be a Police Officer? A Florida, USA Perspective on Trauma Impact and PTSD. Special Episode. Turning Pain Into Purpose Today, Michael A. Laidler uses his experiences to help others. His career path ultimately shifted toward leadership development and training, driven by a desire to support officers before trauma defines them. “If sharing my story helps even one young officer recognize the signs of PTSD or seek help earlier, then it's worth it,” he says. The full podcast episode is streaming now on their website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. This Special Episode isn't just about age requirements or policy, it's about people, development, and the hidden costs of early exposure to trauma in law enforcement. As the conversation continues across News, Podcast, and social media platforms, Michael's story adds an essential human perspective to the ongoing debate. “Nineteen isn't too young to care,” Michael concludes. “But it might be too young to carry trauma alone.” Listeners can tune in on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most every major Podcast platform and follow updates on Facebook, Instagram, and other major News outlets.

The Truth Being a Baltimore, Maryland Police Officer: Crime, Violence, and Survival. A Special Episode. In a media landscape dominated by headlines, hashtags, and heated debates, few stories cut through the noise with honesty. A special episode of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast does exactly that, by telling the truth about what it really means to be a Police Officer, Cop in Baltimore, Maryland. This special episode is streaming for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most every major Podcast platform. In this compelling special episode, John Jay Wiley, a Retired Baltimore Police Sergeant and the host of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, appears as a guest on the On Being A Police Officer Podcast with host Abby Ellsworth. The conversation pulls back the curtain on crime, violence, officer-involved shootings, and the often-misreported realities of police use of force. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “This episode isn't about headlines,” Wiley explains. “It's about what actually happens on the street, when the cameras aren't there and lives are on the line.” The Truth Being a Baltimore, Maryland Police Officer: Crime, Violence, and Survival. A Special Episode. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Four Officer-Involved Shootings, and the Reality Behind Them During his career with the Baltimore Police Department, Wiley was involved in four officer-involved shootings, or as they were called back then shootings, a fact that often shocks listeners unfamiliar with the daily dangers faced by officers in high-crime cities. Contrary to popular narratives repeated across news, Facebook, and Instagram, Wiley reveals that in the first two incidents, he never fired his weapon. He, like most Police Officers, did not shoot back. “The idea that police are always quick to shoot is simply false,” Wiley says during the podcast. “In my first two shootings, I didn't return fire at all.” Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. The final two incidents, however, were prolonged, life-and-death gun battles. The last shooting left Wiley with injuries severe enough to end his police career. “That last gunfight changed everything,” he reflects. “It didn't just end my career, it reshaped my life.” The Truth Being a Baltimore, Maryland Police Officer: Crime, Violence, and Survival. A Special Episode. Shattering Myths About Police and Use of Force A central theme of the podcast special episode is the disconnect between public perception and on-the-ground reality. Wiley and Ellsworth address the myths frequently spread about policing in American cities, especially Baltimore. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “So much of what people believe about police use of force comes from misreporting or outright misinformation,” Wiley notes. “The truth is far more complex, and far more human.” The episode offers listeners an unfiltered look at how decisions are made in seconds, under extreme stress, amid rampant crime and violence. Baltimore: A City With a Complicated History Baltimore, Maryland has long struggled with violent crime rates above the national average. In 2019, Baltimore recorded 348 homicides, second only to its 1993 peak, when the population was significantly higher. Yet the story doesn't end there. By 2024, the city recorded 201 homicides, the lowest number since 2011, evidence that progress, while uneven, is possible. City leaders have credited focused efforts on repeat violent offenders and increased community engagement. The Truth Being a Baltimore, Maryland Police Officer: Crime, Violence, and Survival. A Special Episode. The interview can be found on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and across most podcast platforms where listeners will find authentic law enforcement stories. “Baltimore isn't just statistics,” Wiley says. “It's people, good people, trying to survive in some very hard neighborhoods.” “It's Baltimore, Gentlemen…” A haunting quote from The Wire: “It's Baltimore, gentlemen. The gods will not save you.” For Wiley, that line resonates deeply. “There were moments when I needed God to save my life, during and especially after Policing in Baltimore” he says quietly. “And I believe He did.” A Podcast You Don't Want to Miss On Being A Police Officer is known for offering a civilian-led, inside look at law enforcement through deeply personal interviews.
