Podcasts about predators

Riley Cote and Derek Settlemyre start the show breaking down the latest news in the NHL including Trevor Zegras and Jamie Drysdale's new contracts with the Flyers, the Blackhawks extending Connor Bedard and bringing back Patrick Kane, and Jason Robertson staying in Dallas after turning down a ton of money from Seattle. We also share with you some info about the upcoming Nasty Knuckles Checking Clinic, and our tourney with Let's Play 3v3. We are then joined by newest Head Coach of the Los Angeles Kings Peter Laviolette! Lavi discusses being hired as LA's new bench boss, the head coaching interviews with other teams, LA's offseason additions, some of their young players, getting to coach Artemi Panarin again, and the support from his family. We then jump into some Flyers talk, start with him being hired during the 2009-10 season, the Winter Classic in Boston, the 2010 roster, the playoff run that season, and the 3-0 comeback to the Bruins. He also touches on how he's evolving as a coach, his pregame speeches, and if there's any comparisons between the 2010 Flyers to the 2017 Predators. Moving along we talk about the 2010-11 Flyers season, coaching rookie Sergei Bobrovsky, the HBO 24/7 series, and coaching an 18 year old Sean Couturier. Wrapping up, Lavi discusses whether he liked coaching in Philly or not, and Riley shares some insight on playing for Laviolette.

Today, we tackle a story gripping headlines and shaking the political world. Graham Platner—a name now synonymous with scandal, denial, and convenient ignorance. The temptation? To ignore the warning signs. To protect power instead of people. To excuse sin when it serves our side.But we're not here to excuse. We're here to expose the bigger disease: a society that prizes winning over righteousness, victory over virtue. Yes, the cost is real—criticism, outrage, even loss. But Jesus is still King, even when “convenient ignorance” rules the day.The question is simple. When your moment of truth arrives—will you stay silent, or stand up?"Whoever walks in integrity walks securely, but whoever takes crooked paths will be found out." –Proverbs 10:9Episode Highlights19:00 - As followers of Jesus Christ, we don't have the luxury of living by the world's standard of convenient ignorance. We're called to something more, much higher. We're called to pursue truth even when it's uncomfortable. We're called to protect the vulnerable even when it's unpopular. We're called to confront sin even when it costs us something.32:02 - At the end of our lives, I don't believe the Lord is going to ask whether speaking the truth was politically convenient. I believe he'll ask whether we were faithful. And in my opinion, that's a question that every one of us should be preparing to answer today. Not someday, not next month. Today.39:34 - If there's one lesson I hope that every Christian walks away with from today's episode of the C Suite for Christ podcast, it's this: Stop fearing people more than you fear God... That's the root of so many compromises that we see today. People stay silent because they're afraid... but Scripture repeatedly reminds us to reverse that way of thinking. Connect with Paul M.

SPECIAL GUEST G.H. CLIFF author of SERIAL CITYAt the turn of the twenty-first century, Detroit investigators faced a nightmare few police divisions ever encounter: multiple serial predators operating at the same time, in the same city, often targeting vulnerable victims in overlapping neighborhoods.To the public, the crimes appeared scattered. A schoolgirl attacked on her way to class. A woman assaulted before dawn. A victim deceived, coerced, or ambushed. A body discovered. Separate incidents. Separate headlines.Inside Detroit's Major Crimes Division, a more disturbing picture began to form. As detectives compared reports, victim statements, timelines, geography, and behavior, the investigation became something far more difficult than a search for a single suspect. The city was not hunting one predator.It was hunting several.G. H. Cliff, Ph.D., is a former police chief, law enforcement commander, and investigative analyst specializing in complex investigations, behavioral risk, compliance, cybercrime, and exploitation dynamics. He has directed national white-collar crime research, supported DOJ compliance work, co-authored true crime books, and published on investigative methodology, public safety, and organizational behavior.

⚠️ CONTENT WARNING: This episode contains discussions of serious topics, including online child exploitation, grooming, and extremist networks. Listener discretion is advised, especially if children are nearby. Episode Summary In this heavy but critically important episode of Talk Law Radio, host Todd Marquardt exposes a chilling new breed of online threat facing our families. We dive deep into the recent federal sentencing of Alexis Aldair Chavez, a San Antonio-based leader of a Nihilistic Violent Extremist (NVE) network known as "8884" (a subsidiary of the "764" criminal enterprise). Sentenced to 40 years in federal prison, Chavez’s case reveals how decentralized, nihilistic groups are actively using social media, gaming apps, and messaging platforms to target and terrorize vulnerable teenagers. Todd breaks down the legal mechanics of this prosecution, explaining how the federal government is weaponizing the RICO Act—originally designed to take down the mafia—to dismantle digital cyber-enterprises. To show how easily everyday people can find themselves entangled in online networks, Todd also shares a warning hypothetical about a side-hustle community on social media that crosses the line into a fraudulent, RICO-eligible enterprise. Earlier in the show, we shift gears to focus on financial security. Todd sits down with Steve Warren of Financial Planning HQ to discuss the concept of a "financial flight plan" and why having a dedicated "Financial CEO" can keep your lifetime financial strategy anchored and on track. Key Takeaways & Highlights The Threat of Nihilistic Violent Extremist (NVE) Networks: Understand the rise of decentralized online groups like the 764 Enterprise. Driven by nihilism—the rejection of moral and traditional values—these groups seek to sow social instability by targeting minors where they play and hang out online (TikTok, Telegram, Discord, and gaming lobbies). How Predators Groom and Blackmail Kids: Learn the playbook used by these digital predators. It starts with minor, seemingly harmless online requests to build rapport. Once they secure any private content, they use ruthless extortion and blackmail to force victims into compliance. Modern RICO Applications: Discover how prosecutors are creatively applying the RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations) statute to the digital age, establishing that online communities and internet communication satisfy the legal requirements for "interstate commerce" and "criminal enterprises". Actionable Parent & Caregiver Tips: Be Active and Engaged: Regularly ask your children who they are talking to online and sit with them while they play video games or send messages. Watch for Warnings: Keep a close eye on behavioral shifts and recognize warning signs of online grooming. Report Immediately: If you suspect anything, use resources like the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3), call 1-800-CALL-FBI, or contact Project Safe Childhood. The "Financial Flight Plan" (With Steve Warren): Why your financial goals need a name, a date, and an exact funding requirement—and how a flat-fee "Financial CEO" keeps your team of experts (attorneys, CPAs, planners) working in sync.

New York prosecutors once advanced an argument that bordered on the surreal: that Jeffrey Epstein's status as a sex offender should be downgraded because his conduct, they claimed, did not fit the most severe classification under New York law. Rather than centering the sheer scale of his abuse, the number of victims, or the pattern of predatory behavior that spanned years and continents, prosecutors leaned on narrow technical distinctions about charges, plea structures, and statutory thresholds. The argument treated Epstein not as a serial sexual predator with an industrialized abuse operation, but as a paperwork problem—someone whose crimes could be minimized through legal parsing. In doing so, the prosecution effectively reduced the lived experiences of victims to footnotes, subordinated to a legal strategy that prioritized administrative convenience and risk management over public safety and moral clarity.What made this effort especially damning was not just its substance, but its implication: that the justice system was willing to bend over backward to soften the label attached to one of the most notorious sex offenders in modern history. Downgrading Epstein's offender status would have meant fewer restrictions, less scrutiny, and a public record that obscured the true gravity of his crimes. It signaled a prosecutorial mindset more concerned with avoiding litigation headaches and political discomfort than confronting the reality of Epstein's conduct head-on. Instead of acting as a bulwark against predatory power, prosecutors appeared to act as its bureaucratic shield, reinforcing the perception that wealth, influence, and connections could still warp even the most basic mechanisms meant to protect the public from repeat sexual offenders.to contact me:bobbycacpucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.flsd.317867.106.1.pdf

We begin the 2nd hour with a visit from Gentry Estes of the Tennessean discussing the latest in Nashville sports.  The Predators announced a contract extension for newly acquired forward Mavrik Bourque.  Where does he fit in the top six forwards?  Nick Frazier from Chase & Big Joe hops in studio for a segment to discuss the World Cup and USA vs Belgium tonight.  Robby has the Rob Rant to close the hour.

Our guest is Stacey Knight Mejia, an attorney by training but better known throughout Acadiana as “Sensei Stacey,” co-owner and chief instructor of Acadiana Karate. A ten-time national forms and weapons champion, Stacey has spent decades teaching martial arts, confidence, and practical self-defense to children and adults. Her message is simple but powerful: “The goal isn’t to live in fear. The goal is to live with awareness, confidence, and the ability to trust yourself.” As Stacey explains, avoiding violence begins long before physical self-defense becomes necessary. “Ninety to ninety-five percent of all self-defense scenarios can be avoided by pre-planning.” That single statement frames our entire discussion. Stacey explains that every attack begins with three elements: a predator, a victim, and an opportunity. Predators are looking for easy targets and easy opportunities, which is why awareness matters so much. “You are what you look like. How you stand, how you walk. Eye contact is huge because remember, the predator doesn’t want to get caught.” She encourages women to walk with purpose, maintain awareness of their surroundings, know where exits are located within seconds of entering a building, lock vehicle doors immediately, and always have a response plan before something happens. “Have a plan. What am I going to do? Where are the exits? How am I going to get out of here?” Throughout the interview, Stacey returns repeatedly to the importance of using your voice. “When I teach women physical self-defense classes, I sometimes have issues getting them to use their voice. They feel, ‘I’m silly,’ or they’re shy. I need you to become a tiger or a lion because the guy that’s coming at you has a criminal mindset.” One of the strongest themes of our discussion is learning to trust intuition. Gavin de Becker’s landmark book The Gift of Fear, was discussed and he argues that our instincts often recognize danger before our conscious minds do. “Trust your instinct. Trust your gut. It’s so important.” She tells parents to teach their children the same lesson. “No is a one-word sentence. No means no. Say no and run.” Rather than encouraging people to become fearful, Stacey wants them to become intentional. “I don’t want you to live in fear. But you need to be aware.” We discuss numerous real-world situations that women encounter every day, including shopping centers, grocery stores, parking lots, gas stations, DoorDash deliveries, ride-share services, parks, jogging alone, and even sitting in your own driveway scrolling through your phone. Stacey points out that today’s criminals are increasingly sophisticated, posing as delivery drivers, utility workers, or even leaving seemingly harmless items such as money dropped on the ground, windshield wipers moved out of place, or objects on door handles to create distractions. Her advice remains remarkably practical: “Verify, verify. Do not open the front door of your house for a delivery person or a utility worker until you verify.” She also recommends limiting distractions. “The cell phone can be very helpful but it’s a huge distraction.” Instead, she encourages using technology wisely by sharing locations with friends and family, calling 911 immediately if something feels wrong, and trusting that internal warning system. Another phone trick is to put your camera on if someone is stalking you. “Turn around and say, ‘Do I know you? Do you need anything? and take a picture. If they hurry away, you know they weren’t up to any good.” One of Stacey’s most moving stories involves a woman who survived a brutal sexual assault and eventually found her way to Acadiana Karate. Initially unable to speak about what had happened, she slowly rebuilt both her confidence and her life through training. “She came out victorious. She got her life back.” Stacey also offers reassurance to anyone who has survived an attack. “You survived. You shouldn’t feel shame about that.” Although Stacey has earned national championships in martial arts competition and even performed stunt work on the television series Mortal Kombat: Conquest after being recruited from the national karate circuit, she emphasizes that most people will never need advanced martial arts techniques if they develop strong situational awareness. Stacey recommends simple, easy-to-use personal safety devices such as Birdie or Hootie personal alarms that emit a piercing sound to attract attention and create an opportunity to escape. She is less enthusiastic about pepper spray, guns or knives. “I’m not an expert on those tools. I don’t advocate for it. I’ve heard so many horror stories about the attacker grabbing it and turning it on you.” She also recommends an inexpensive glass breaker/seatbelt cutter device that can be used both in vehicle emergencies and, if necessary, to escape from a locked vehicle. Her philosophy focuses on escape rather than confrontation. “The goal is to escape.” Stacey also explains why a single two-hour self-defense seminar cannot replace consistent training. “Don’t think that you’re an expert after one seminar.” Karate develops something much deeper than physical techniques. Through repetition, students build muscle memory so that, under the stress of an actual attack, simple defensive movements become automatic. “We just drill it, drill it, drill it.” Every August I get calls about teaching safety classes to daughters right before they go iff to college. ‘Please, can you teach self-defense in a week?’ The best thing I tell my parents is to buy this book: Confidence in Conflict for Campus Life, by Jill Weisensel . It goes through all things addressing personal safety awareness like theft in the dorm, sorority parties, how to address hazing and sexual assault, just really great tips on how to address high-risk behaviors.” Stacey also follows Dannah Eve who recently wrote a book called Street Smarts. Introduced to karate by her future husband, Pablo Mejia, while attending college, she earned her first-degree black belt before entering law school. She credits martial arts with helping her persevere through one of the most demanding periods of her life. “There are times in law school where we all just want to quit. Karate really helped me.” The discipline she learned on the mat carried directly into her legal career. Today, Stacey continues serving the community through Acadiana Karate while also sharing health and wellness advice through her “Stacey’s Optimal Health” platform. Whether discussing nutrition, exercise, parenting teenagers, or personal safety, her underlying message never changes: preparation creates confidence. This episode is for every woman, every parent, every college student, and every family member who wants practical, thoughtful guidance on staying safe while living life with confidence instead of fear. “Don’t live in fear. Just be aware.” For more information about Stacey Knight Mejia and Acadiana Karate, visit https://acadianakarate.com/

It is about the years before that: the college allegations, the DNA that sat without a name attached to it, the missed opportunities, and the systems that treated each warning sign like it belonged in a separate folder.Morgan Harrington disappeared in 2009 after leaving a Metallica concert in Charlottesville, Virginia. Years later, UVA student Hannah Graham disappeared after a night out in the same city. DNA evidence eventually connected Matthew to a 2005 Fairfax assault, Morgan's case, and Hannah's case.The question at the center of this episode is not only what Jesse Matthew did. It is how many times he could have been stopped before another woman was harmed.Because predators do not live in folders.This episode discusses sexual assault allegations, abduction, homicide, missing persons cases, violence against women, and institutional failures around campus safety.Jesse Matthew's early background and college football yearsSexual assault allegations at Liberty University and Christopher Newport UniversityThe 2005 Fairfax assault and unmatched DNA profileMorgan Harrington's disappearance after the 2009 Metallica concertThe search for Morgan and the creation of Help Save the Next GirlHannah Graham's 2014 disappearance in CharlottesvilleHow CCTV helped identify Matthew as a suspectThe DNA links between Fairfax, Morgan, and HannahMatthew's arrest in Texas, guilty pleas, and life sentencesThe larger conversation around campus safety, DNA policy, and missed warning signsAfter the main episode, I also cover two current stories:The death of Nateal Campbell, mother of NFL player Calais Campbell, and the charges against her son Ciarre CampbellThe update in Joniah Walker's case after the Milwaukee teen, missing since 2022, was found safeJesse Matthew was eventually convicted in the murders of Morgan Harrington and Hannah Graham, but this case raises a bigger question: how many times could he have been stopped before another woman was harmed?This episode looks at the college allegations, the 2005 Fairfax assault, the DNA links, the disappearances of Morgan and Hannah, and the institutional gaps that allowed warning signs to stay separated.Because predators do not live in folders.Content warning: sexual assault allegations, abduction, homicide, missing persons cases, and violence against women.If you made it this far, thank you for sitting with these stories with me.

It's 938 days until the legally defined end of the 47th Presidency, but the merit of upcoming elections becomes more suspect as time goes on. In the meantime, we try to find our emotional center amid the chaos of silliness and nothing-burgers.

Quail habitat is the whole story. Kyle Hedges and Frank Loncarich spent five years following bobwhite quail across the Midwest, and the data pointed at one thing over and over: disturbed ground grows birds. On this episode, host Nick Larson brings back Kyle Hedges and Frank Loncarich, two biologists who helped run one of the largest quail habitat studies in the region. From 2014 to 2018 they monitored 500 nests, radio-collared chicks, and even collared raccoons to see how predators move through cover. What came out of it is a genuinely hopeful finding: you can grow quail if you're deliberate about it. The number that anchors the conversation: 95% of their brood locations were in habitat that had been burned, grazed, or otherwise disturbed within the previous 12 months. Grassland managed with fire and cattle beat the old broken-up dairy-farm model on nest success, on survival, and on eggs per nest. The thick, idle CRP field that looks so birdy in January? The chicks can't get through it. Before the quail talk, Nick and the guys swap turkey-season stories and take on the old myth that turkeys are eating quail and grouse into decline. The short version: the timing doesn't add up, and it never did. It's a habitat problem wearing a predator's costume. Chapters: 0:00 - 95% of Broods: The Stat That Reframes Everything 2:19 - Turkey Season Recap and a Mid-Morning Tom 15:14 - Are Turkeys to Blame for Quail and Grouse? 21:57 - Inside the 5-Year Quail Study 25:40 - Usable Space and the Numbers on Nest Success 28:23 - Why Broods Live in Recently Disturbed Cover 31:18 - Prescribed Fire and Grazing at Landscape Scale 34:37 - Why Change Is Hard on Working Farms 36:35 - The Idle CRP Problem 38:40 - How Often to Disturb: Every 1, 2, or 3 Years 41:17 - One Farm for Quail, Turkeys, and Deer 42:10 - Cost Share and the Real Price of a Burn 45:26 - Building a Fire Culture and Burn Associations 46:52 - Native Grass Restoration Goes Mainstream 48:11 - Pollinator Plantings as Quail Habitat 50:08 - What Good Quail Cover Actually Looks Like 53:02 - Shrubby Escape Cover and the 10-20% Rule 54:16 - Eastern Red Cedar and When Woody Cover Helps 59:36 - Predators, Raccoons, and Why Grasslands Win Resources & Links: Land and Legacy: https://landandlegacy.tv/ Kyle Hedges: https://landandlegacy.tv/about/ Frank Loncarich: https://landandlegacy.tv/about/ How to conduct a prescribed burn for upland bird habitat (Project Upland): https://projectupland.com/hunting-conservation/how-to-conduct-a-prescribed-burn-for-upland-bird-habitat/ Support the show: The Birdshot Podcast is Presented By onX Hunt.

Adam, Willy, and DMase talk to NHL Draft Analyst Chris Peters on the NHL Draft and who the Predators should be looking for

It's Friday, so you know that means ask DMase! Also, Adam, Willy, and DMase talk to former Preds Goaltender Chris Mason on what he thinks of the Predators draft

0:00 - We thought the Nuggets might package their 2nd round picks in a trade. But instead...they used them! Do we like the players they drafted? Did they address their needs? Will those dudes actually get playing time?12:53 - The Colorado - Nashville pipeline has already been established, thanks for Chris MacFarland. Jack Drury got shipped off to the Music City. Do we like the 2 young studs the Avs got in return? According to Berto, one of them is a madman who brings the physicality and toughness the Avs need.28:41 - Mental toughness in sports is such a fickle thing. Some people have it. Some don't. Others depserately NEED it (like the Nuggets in the Timberwolves series). 

0:00 - The Nuggets had two 2nd round picks yesterday and they used them both! How do we feel about them actually selecting players instead of packaging those picks for draft day dealing?17:09 - We got relevant breaking news during our show for once! The Charlotte Hornets traded LaMelo Ball to the Minnesota Timberwolves in exchange for Naz Reid and a metric tonne of picks. Minny's backcourt is now LaBelo and Anthony Edwards. Sheesh. What's Minnesota doing? Will Denver be able to beat them in the playoffs now?32:39 - Chris MacFarland only has one number in his phone, and it's Joe Sakic's. Yesterday, the Avs sent Jack Drury to the Predators. Do we like the haul they got in return? Will we miss Drury?

Pekka Rinne is a Hall of Famer! We celebrate the greatest Predators of all-time. Then we break down all of the trading chaos in the NHL and how it impacts the NHL Draft. Which three players will Nashville be choosing from at No. 10? What traits should they focus on? Best available vs. positional need? Braden Gall and Emma Lingan talk Preds hockey. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch all episodes on YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

The final hour of Robby & Rexrode continues with more on the selection of Pekka Rinne in the Hockey Hall of Fame. What is your favorite memory or game with Pekka Rinne as a goaltender for the Predators? Giannis traded to the Miami Heat for an exchange of 4 players, 4 picks, and a pick swap. Dust May to the NBA Dallas Mavericks. We take your calls!

A predator rarely “shows up” as a stranger in the dark. Sometimes he shows up as a trusted helper with a badge, a friendly smile, and the perfect reason to be near your child. In the final episode of Season 7, we talk with Conference on Crimes Against Women presenter Chris McGhee, the father of a survivor and a relentless advocate for criminal justice reform, to unpack how sexual assault grooming actually works and why it can fool entire families.Chris breaks down grooming as a deliberate playbook: selecting vulnerability, building trust, crossing boundaries in small steps, then using shame and fear to keep a victim quiet. He shares how his daughter Grace was targeted by a school resource officer who first positioned himself as a mentor, then weaponized his authority, his community reputation, and Grace's relationships to trap her. We connect these real-world details to the grooming model described by Dr. Georgia Winters and Dr. Elizabeth Jeglic so listeners can recognize the patterns, not just the headlines.We also talk about the aftermath: PTSD, triggers, and the unique pain of watching a case end in a plea deal that doesn't feel like justice. Chris explains how disappearing-message platforms like Snapchat can complicate investigations, and how survivors can experience secondary victimization while navigating reports, interviews, and court decisions. Finally, we focus on prevention and change: open parent-teen communication, removing blame from children who were manipulated, and pushing for anti-grooming laws and accountability when mandated reporters abuse power.If you care about child safety, sexual assault prevention, and real criminal justice reform, listen through and share this with someone who needs the language to spot grooming sooner.

Willy, Adam, and DMase talk about the Panthers Trade and Dusty Mays leaving Michigan for the Mavs.

On this episode of Have a Seat with Chris Hansen, shocking, alarming and disturbing information is presented regarding the U.S. school systems, teacher union and abuse against our children. Sexual abuse and assault attorney John Manly joins Hansen to shed light on the glaring issue and mind-blowing statistic facing our school systems today: 10% of the 57 million American students have had inappropriate sexual contact by a teacher, staff or school faculty, thats a staggering 5.7 million child victims! This episode breaks down the hierarchy of school leadership and unions that are blocking justice for assaulted students and points to past cases and convictions like Larry Nassar, Mark Berndt and Terry Gillard that put a spotlight on this unspoken epidemic. If you have children or young family members enrolled in school, this is an episode you cannot afford to miss.

Dr. Phil is discussing how predators are using AI technology to create fake sexually explicit images of young women, men, and children, only to share them online for anyone to see. Dr. Phil will speak with Brooke, and her daughter Bekah, who at only 17 years old learned that someone had stolen photos of her off social media, and digitally altered them to create nude pornographic images of her, and post them online. Find out why Bekah has decided to speak publicly about what happened to her for the first time. Plus, Dr. Phil will speak with Anna, and her daughter Elliston, who was only 14 years old when she learned a classmate had created nude images of her and eight of her friends, and then attempted to share them with as many people as possible. Learn how Elliston, along with her mother, Anna, became instrumental in helping get the Take it Down Act recently signed into federal law – a law that protects anyone victimized by non-consensual intimate images shared online.Sponsored by: HighLevel: If you own a small business, don't skip this.
