Voters also approve $98,150 annually for Butterfield Library Haldane Voters approved the Haldane Central School District's proposed $30.2 million budget by a vote of 474-125, or 79 percent. Turnout was 13 percent. Voters also approved spending $205,000 on school buses (476-120) and increasing the maximum amount held in the Facilities Improvement Reserve Fund to $3 million and its duration by 10 years (480-117). In addition, the ballot included a proposition to support the Butterfield Library with $98,150 in taxes annually, which was approved, 508-86. Voters approved referendums in 2015 to provide $73,150 annually to the library and in 2006 to provide $276,000 annually. The Haldane spending includes a 2.8 percent tax-levy increase. Using the state's tax-cap formula, the district could have asked for a 3.38 levy increase. Board members debated this spring whether to go "to cap" but opted to forgo about $132,000 in revenue after voters last year approved an increase of 6.95 percent over three years to pay for $28.4 million in capital improvements. State aid for 2025-26 will be $4.55 million, an increase of $73,000 (1.6 percent). The budget includes funding for a science-of-reading curriculum; software to improve student outcomes; a new pre-K program; special education funding for out-of-district placements; increased field trip spending; a softball field dugout; classroom air conditioners to comply with New York state's maximum temperature requirement; auditorium stage and performing arts equipment; and a transportation system analysis. The district estimates taxes on a home valued at $500,000 will rise by $197 annually. Sean McNall and Ezra Clementson ran unopposed to retain their seats on the five-member school board. Clementson will serve his second, 3-year term and McNall his third. Garrison Garrison district voters approved its proposed $14.7 million by a vote of 210-64, or 77 percent. Turnout was 12.5 percent. By a 232-41 vote, district residents also approved a proposition that allows the district to enter into a contract for two to five years to continue sending high school students to Putnam Valley. Garrison includes grades K-8; its older students can attend Putnam Valley, Haldane or O'Neill. There were two open seats on the seven-member board, and two incumbent candidates. Sarah Tormey was elected to her third, 3-year term and Kent Schacht to his second full term after being elected in 2021 to fill a vacancy. The tax-levy increase of 3.58 percent was far below the 5.78 percent allowed for the district under the state's tax-cap formula. To avoid raising the levy further, Garrison administrators proposed paying for two pilot programs - an armed police officer and a lunch program - with $1.4 million in savings. State aid will be $1.23 million, an increase of $51,000 (4.4 percent). With the budget approval, the district will hire a Special Patrol Officer, a retired police officer whose role would be limited to security. (A School Resource Officer, or SRO, which Haldane has, is a sheriff's deputy who also teaches classes on topics such as personal safety, cyberbullying and drug awareness.) Student lunches will be available Monday through Thursday; on Fridays, the school will continue to sell pizza as a fundraiser.

Ep. 70 - From Raleigh PD to True Crime Author: Cameron Santana on his law enforcement career and the Virginia Olson Cold Case. Cameron has 20 years in law enforcement. He started with Raleigh PD in 2005. In our conversation, we jump right in with his first call straight out of the academy – a violent murder scene. Cameron talks about what it's like hitting the streets with no real world LE experience, being surrounded by chaos and relying on the direction of his Field Training Officer. Then, within short two years, Cameron would go from having an FTO to being an FTO and later Taser Instructor. In all, he trained more than 30 officers.Cameron later joined Raleigh PD's Strike Team the goal of which was to aggressively address the city's problem areas through proactive policing. The unit's focus was on violent gang offenders, street level drug sales, and prostitution. The team also conducted surveillance during spikes in burglaries. After about 13 years on patrol, Cameron transitioned to School Resource Officer because the set schedule would allow him to spend more time with his family after his daughter was born with special needs. School Resource Officer was a role he never expected he would want, much less come to love. Throughout our conversation, Cameron shares funny, often wild stories of police work, as well as the painful calls that all of you respond to in this profession, calls that live with him to this day.Cameron has co-authored a true crime book with his brother Brian, an English professor. The book, “A Murder on Campus: The Professor, the Cop and North Carolina's Most Notorious Cold Case,” investigates the 1973 unsolved rape and murder of 19-year-old Virginia Olson, a student at University of North Carolina Asheville. It is the first book to thoroughly investigate her story and attempt to find answers to solve this now 52-year-old cold case. The book has led to Cameron's launching his own podcast “Santana True Crime” on the Failure to Stop network. As well as a podcast called “Free Daniel Holtzclaw” with Eric Tansey of Failure to Stop. Available on all podcast platforms. Links below.I want to thank Cameron for coming on the show, his commitment to law enforcement, and his mission to not only find justice for victims, but also to make sure the rest of us know the story of their lives beyond their incident.

Send us a textWhat happens when someone with a criminal record becomes the police officer sworn to uphold the law? Detective Matt Thornton's remarkable story challenges everything we think we know about the people behind the badge.Growing up in a rough neighborhood where police were considered the enemy, Thornton's path to law enforcement began with his own arrest at age 21 for carrying an illegal firearm. Years later, driven by the need to provide for his daughter, he reluctantly took the police exam. Despite facing ridicule in the academy for his criminal record and ostracism from fellow officers who knew his background, Thornton persevered through 21 years of service, eventually specializing in narcotics enforcement before becoming a detective.What sets Thornton apart is his unwavering commitment to constitutional policing and treating everyone with dignity—regardless of their background or circumstances. Drawing from his unique perspective straddling both worlds, he speaks candidly about police misconduct, the importance of street knowledge, and why some officers struggle to connect with the communities they serve. Through his current work as a School Resource Officer and his youth organization "Home Away From Home," Thornton mentors young people facing the same challenges he once did.Thornton's philosophy is straightforward yet revolutionary in policing circles: "Everyone under the sun deserves respect." His willingness to call out problematic behavior while still serving as an officer makes him both controversial and essential in conversations about police reform. As he poignantly states, "Bad policing makes our job harder, puts us in danger."Looking for real talk about policing without the typical defensiveness or platitudes? This episode delivers powerful insights from someone who's lived on both sides of the thin blue line.#police #lawenforcement #cops  #bridgethegap #bethechange 

In this powerful episode of Talking With Kevin and Son, host and award-winning author Kevin McLemore sits down with Dr. Beth J. Sanborn — school safety coordinator, former decorated patrol officer, and creator of the educational webinar Hidden, High & Hammered. Together, they dive deep into the crucial conversations parents, educators, and communities must have to protect and guide today's youth.Dr. Sanborn shares how her frontline experiences as a School Resource Officer inspired her mission to educate parents and professionals on the hidden dangers teens face — from drug use and vaping to risky lifestyle choices. Her program doesn't just inform — it equips adults with hands-on knowledge, real-world examples, and proactive tools to recognize early signs before it's too late.

The Journey to Midnight: From Navy Rescue Swimmer to Mental Health Advocate – A Conversation with Matt Griffin This week, Marcus and Melanie are honored to welcome Matt Griffin, a six-year U.S. Navy veteran and fifteen-year law enforcement professional with a career deeply rooted in narcotics investigations and public service. Matt's journey began in 1997 with the U.S. Navy, where he would later become a certified Search and Rescue swimmer, conducting counter-drug operations that played a key role in Operation Enduring Freedom, intercepting over a metric ton of cocaine intended for the U.S. market. After transitioning to law enforcement, Matt joined the Virginia Beach Police Department in 2003, where his drive and initiative earned him multiple awards—including the Class Act Award—and certifications as a narcotics expert witness in state and superior court. In 2007, Matt moved to the Keene, NH Police Department, where his work with the NH Drug Task Force and later as a School Resource Officer further showcased his dedication. He earned a Life Saving Award and led the department in arrests for two consecutive years. In 2015, Matt was selected to join the New Hampshire Attorney General's Drug Task Force, working undercover during the height of the opioid and fentanyl crisis. His relentless pursuit of justice and education surrounding these deadly drugs led to a State Police Commendation in 2016. After retiring in 2017, Matt has focused on shattering the stigma around mental health in the first responder and military communities. Now working full-time with Axon as a Virtual Reality Solutions Specialist, Matt is also a national keynote speaker, mentor, consultant, and the #1 Amazon bestselling author of The Journey to Midnight. In this episode, Matt opens up about: His military and law enforcement career and the challenges he faced What it means to serve undercover during a drug epidemic The mental toll of frontline service—and the road to healing His passion for changing the culture around mental health in emergency services How immersive VR is being used to transform training and wellness in policing Whether you're in uniform or support someone who is, this is a powerful and inspiring conversation you don't want to miss. In This Episode You Will Hear: • [The field] is the great equalizer. Nobody can bother me there. On the field, it doesn't matter what you bring, what you showed up in, or what kind of clothes or shoes you have. It's me against you. (18:49) •You just never knew when to give all you had, so all you do was constantly give all you had. (31:13) •Life's not fair, which makes it fair. (36:45) •Just like in the Navy, you're not gonna do well in the beginning, because they've gotta see a transition to you being good. (43:22) •We made marijuana legal, but what that did was the cartels were like “I'm not losing 30% of my profit. I'll find something else.” (61:46) •America makes up 80 something percent of the world's opioid prescriptions. (63:11) •I take full responsibility for my divorce. I forgot how to be a husband, forgot how to be a dad, and it hit me hard. (66:11) • [My friend Brian, also the Police Chief] was checking in on me. You know what I didn't say? “how're you doing bro?” He checked on me and I didn't check on him. 2 hours later he went home and shot and killed himself. (72:46) •If you want to learn how to make ramen the right way, ask a military guy. (76:31) •I just felt like I was failing my kids every single day. All of a sudden, this light bulb went off. The next step in my transition from the Navy to the police department to the team, is to take myself out of the game. (77:00) •The off-ramp is – it's okay to not be okay. (80:05) •Once you realize that life is short, you don't want to waste 24 hours being hungover. (86:04) •Every day I'd wake up and I'd say. “Today's a good day to die, so is tomorrow.” And I would try to string some good decisions together. (90:29) •My motto is: Every day, I find an opportunity inside of my 24-hour window that I get to live to do something good for somebody else. (91:08) •Tomorrow is a good day, and you can make it there. (93:20) •The scariest day of my life was when I hit “publish” on my book. (100:08) •Where I sit here today, God is the biggest influence in my life. (107:08) •As I speak around the country people would line up to buy a book, but I realized they weren't trying to buy a book. You know what they wanted to do? They just wanted to come and say “Hey, I'm struggling, too.” (116:10) Socials: --  IG: authormattgriffin Support TNQ - IG: team_neverquit , marcusluttrell , melanieluttrell , huntero13 -  https://www.patreon.com/teamneverquit Sponsors:    - WARFARE IN THEATERS    - shipsticks.com/TNQ    - Navyfederal.org           - Robinhood.com/gold    - strawberry.me/TNQ    - stopboxusa.com {TNQ}    - ghostbed.com/TNQ [TNQ]   -  kalshi.com/TNQ    - PXG.com/TNQ   -  joinbilt.com/TNQ    - Tonal.com [TNQ]   - greenlight.com/TNQ   - PDSDebt.com/TNQ   - drinkAG1.com/TNQ   - Shadyrays.com [TNQ]   - qualialife.com/TNQ [TNQ]   - Hims.com/TNQ   - Shopify.com/TNQ   - Aura.com/TNQ   - Policygenius.com   - TAKELEAN.com [TNQ]   - usejoymode.com [TNQ]

School Shooting The Trauma And After Effects. On October 24, 2014, a tragic school shooting at Marysville Pilchuck High School in Washington state resulted in the deaths of four students and the shooter himself. This devastating event left lasting trauma on the victims' families, students, staff, and first responders. The after-effects from such violence continue to impact the mental health of those affected, highlighting the urgent need for awareness and support.

Chris Sutherland now retired from the Marysville Police Department, in Washington State is our guest on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show.

The interview with Chris is in a recent podcast interview on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, available on their website and platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms. The Shooting and Its Immediate Aftermath A 15-year-old freshman invited several friends to lunch before opening fire in the school cafeteria. Armed with a .40-caliber handgun, he methodically shot at least eight times, targeting only those seated at his friends’ table. The victims, all shot in the head, included Zoe Galasso, 14, who died at the scene; Shaylee Chuckulnaskit, 14; Gia Soriano, 14; and Andrew Fryberg, 15, who succumbed to their injuries days later. Another student, Nate Hatch, survived despite being shot in the jaw. School Shooting The Trauma And After Effects. Read the supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium, Newsbreak and Blogspot. The shooter ultimately died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Eyewitness reports suggest that first-year social studies teacher Megan Silberberger attempted to intervene during the attack. His father was later convicted of illegal firearm possession, having unlawfully acquired the weapon used in the shooting. He was sentenced to two years in prison and three years of supervised release. The Trauma and Long-Term Effects The effects from the shooting extend far beyond the tragic loss of life. Survivors, families, and first responders suffer from PTSD, depression, and ongoing mental health struggles. One of the key figures impacted by this tragedy is Chris Sutherland, who was a School Resource Officer at the time of the shooting. Now retired from the Marysville Police Department, he has spoken about the trauma he experienced that day and the lingering effects it has had on his life. Listen to the interview as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast website, also available on platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major podcast outlets. Sutherland, like many others exposed to violent incidents, developed PTSD. The symptoms of PTSD, including flashbacks, anxiety, and emotional distress—affect countless first responders and survivors of school shootings. The mental health repercussions can be devastating, affecting relationships, daily functioning, and overall well-being. School Shooting The Trauma And After Effects. Addressing Mental Health and PTSD Recovery Understanding the long-term after-effects from school shootings is crucial for developing effective support systems.

Survivors and advocates use social media to share stories, provide support, and raise awareness about PTSD and its effects. Additionally, news outlets, including major networks like Apple and Spotify Podcasts, have played a critical role in shedding light on the experiences of survivors and first responders, making mental health a central topic of national concern. School Shooting The Trauma And After Effects. Moving Forward: Breaking the Stigma Around Mental Health The effects from school shootings do not end when the headlines fade. Survivors, families, and first responders continue to navigate life with the trauma of that day. Increasing awareness, advocating for mental health resources, and supporting organizations like Bigger Than Us can help those affected find the support they need.

Claire de Mézerville López welcomes Kendall Hughes, D. Min. and Captain Jeff Stilwell to the Restorative Works! Podcast.  Join us as Kendall shares his reflections on his two decades as a chaplain in federal prisons, where he facilitated transformative dialogues between incarcerated individuals and the victims of violent crimes. He shares how this experience inspired the creation of programs that give both victims and offenders a platform to heal, with many former offenders now leading youth recovery and reentry programs. Captain Stilwell offers a unique perspective from his leadership role in law enforcement, highlighting his department's collaboration with Three Rivers Restorative Justice to divert youth from traditional prosecution, focusing instead on reconciliation and accountability through restorative justice conferences. The conversation also explores the recent Minnesota legislation establishing a statewide office of restorative practices, an initiative aimed at providing equitable access to restorative justice for all communities, particularly those that have been historically marginalized.  Kendall is Director of the Minnesota Office of Restorative Practices. He began in the 80s as a nonprofit staff person walking alongside leaders from minoritized communities as they built affordable housing, places of worship, and schools.  He spent two decades as a Chaplain in federal prisons. Together with resilient incarcerated men, Kendall developed an 18-month residential relationship and skill building program that offered transformative dialogues to survivors of violent crimes and men who had caused deep harm. Many of those men are now leaders in youth, recovery, and reentry programs; others are entrepreneurs and civil servants. In 2019, Kendall co-founded Three Rivers Restorative Justice in southeastern MN, focusing on both pre-charge restorative justice conferences and training facilitators. In 2023, the Minnesota legislature and Governor approved the establishment of a statewide Office of Restorative Practices and on August 21, 2024, Kendall became the first director of that office.   Jeff is a seasoned law enforcement professional with over 30 years of dedicated service. Throughout his career, he has consistently showcased his commitment to community safety, effective crime prevention, and exceptional leadership. He advanced through the ranks from patrol officer to captain, earning recognition for his strategic vision, proactive community engagement, and collaborative approach to policing. For the past five years, he has led the Rochester Police Department's Community Services Division, which was established in February 2019 to enhance community connections in Rochester. His division encompasses the Community Action Team, School Resource Officers, Hospital Resource Officers, Community Service Officers, Animal Control, and Parking Control. In this capacity, he played a pivotal role in advancing the department's community engagement efforts. Jeff retired and now serves as a Board Member for Three Rivers Restorative Justice.

Chief of Police is a title typically given to the head of a police department, but that simple definition gets very confusing very quickly. Sheriffs are the name we give to elected officials who preside over county law enforcement in the US, while Chief's of Police typically preside over municipal police agencies.Sometimes Chief's are elected. Sometimes they are appointed by a mayor or city council. Sometimes they are selected through the civil service act. Sometimes they are not called Chief's of Police at all.Police Commissioners are another term, frequently found in the larger metropolitan areas Chief,When we talk about the police chief's we are talking about the head of a municipal police department not affiliated with the local sheriff's office.What do chief's do?Sorry to make you laugh, it wasn't a trick question.Chiefs of police are typically responsible for operational oversight, budgeting, planning, discipline, direction, regulations, communications, and in smaller agencies general police work. All at the behest of a governing body, either mayor or city council.It's not an easy job.I rose to the highest levels of administration in my police department. I was third in charge, so while I didn't ever actually do the job, I did learn one thing.You can't pay me enough to do it.[Insert Intro]George Sippert spent 32 years serving the people of Flint Township Michigan.
