Rick Fittin grew up in New Jersey, joined the Army, and went on to spend more than 25 years in law enforcement — working his way from patrol officer to K9 officer and eventually police chief. Along the way, he experienced the wild, funny, and unpredictable side of policing that most people never get to hear directly from the officers who lived it. After more than two decades on the job, Rick walked away from law enforcement and started an entirely new chapter of his life. _____________________________________________ #police #cops #TrueCrime #crimestories #k9 _____________________________________________ Thank you to HIMS & CASH APP for sponsoring this episode: Hims: Ready to reach your goals?

This one's a bit different. It's shorter, and it's about a film that doesn't exist yet. Christopher Jacobsen is an actor and filmmaker, and full disclosure, the brother of one of my good friends. He's trying to get a documentary made about Daragh O'Malley, who played Sergeant Patrick Harper in Sharpe.Daragh and Sean Bean were the only two actors in every episode, from 1993 to 2008. Chris grew up a huge Sharpe fan. In 2021 he and his filmmaking partner Marco sent Daragh a short film script. Daragh said yes, and a friendship followed, along with a lot of two-hour phone calls.The spine of the documentary is Daragh's friendship with Marlon Brando. In 1995 the two were cast in Divine Rapture, alongside Johnny Depp, Debra Winger and John Hurt. Two weeks into the shoot the money fell apart and production shut down for good. Daragh and Brando stayed friends. Daragh took him for his first pint of Guinness in a rural Irish pub, kept his voicemails, and still has thirty or forty minutes of largely unseen Divine Rapture footage. There's plenty more.Six months in a cabin with Hugh Grant and Bill Nighy on Grant's first job. Swapping Brando stories with Ron Perlman, who'd survived The Island of Dr. Moreau. Pete Postlethwaite brushing his teeth with lager on the Sharpe shoot. A family connection to Richard Harris. And the angry Irishman in the pub in Withnail and I. Chris is raising £7,000 for the first shoot.That's a week in Ireland with Daragh, visiting places tied to Divine Rapture and his early life, and a week in London interviewing the people who knew him. The kit is already covered. The money pays for flights, fuel, a car and an extra crew member. I've been on the other side of this. The Joe Alves documentary got to Martha's Vineyard and LA because people listening to this podcast chipped in. If you can spare the price of a coffee or a pint, send it Chris's way.

On The TV Show COPS: Hostage Negotiator and Life Behind the Badge. Special Episode. The retired Broward County Sheriff's Sergeant discusses fallen officers, high-stakes negotiations, his appearance on COPS, and the experiences behind his books. When the worst happens, someone has to respond and someone has to remain calm enough to handle the crisis. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin. Retired Broward County Sheriff's Sergeant Glenn Topping knows that responsibility well. During a decorated law enforcement career in South Florida, he confronted hostage situations, investigated the killing of one of the deputies he supervised, experienced the loss of other law enforcement officers, and appeared On The TV Show COPS. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Topping joins host John J. “Jay” Wiley for a Special Episode of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast to discuss the realities hidden behind the uniform. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. #LawEnforcementTalk #Free #Podcast #Radio “When the worst happens, someone has to respond and handle it,” is the central truth behind Topping's story. His journey stretches from Queens, New York, to the United States Army and eventually to one of the largest public safety agencies in the nation. It is a story of service, violence, loss, resilience, and the loving family that helped give his life new meaning. On The TV Show COPS: Hostage Negotiator and Life Behind the Badge. Special Episode. From Queens to the United States Army Glenn Topping grew up in Queens, New York, with his parents and two sisters. As a young boy, he had no way of knowing that his path would eventually lead him into military service, South Florida law enforcement, hostage negotiation, television, and writing. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, is available on Apple, Spotify, YouTube, and other major podcast platforms. The interview is also featured across Facebook and Instagram. He began his career as a military police officer in the United States Army and became a veteran sergeant. After leaving the Army, he entered civilian law enforcement in South Florida and went on to become a decorated deputy sheriff sergeant with the Broward County Sheriff's Office. His progression from a young boy in Queens to a military police veteran and experienced sheriff's sergeant later became an important part of the story told in his autobiographical work. “A young boy's pursuit of a dream” became more than the theme of a book. It became a description of Topping's life. Serving With the Broward County Sheriff's Office The Broward County Sheriff's Office, commonly known as BSO, is one of the largest full-service public safety agencies in the United States. It employs more than 5,400 people, including nearly 3,400 sworn law enforcement officers, detention deputies, and fire rescue personnel. On The TV Show COPS: Hostage Negotiator and Life Behind the Badge. Special Episode. The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. For years, BSO was also recognized as one of the country's largest fully accredited sheriff's offices before losing that accreditation by unanimous vote in 2019. The size and scope of the agency reflect the community it serves. Broward County is part of the Miami metropolitan area and the South Florida region. With 1,944,375 residents recorded in the 2020 census, it is Florida's second-most populous county after Miami-Dade County and the 17th-most populous county in the United States. Policing such a large and diverse county brings officers and deputies into contact with nearly every kind of emergency. For Topping, some of those calls and investigations would remain with him for the rest of his life. Deputy, Police, Trooper Killed: The Cost Behind the Headlines The phrase Deputy, Police and Trooper Killed may appear as a headline, but for law enforcement families and agencies, it represents an intensely personal loss. Topping experienced that reality when he investigated the killing of one of the deputies under his supervision. He also confronted other line-of-duty deaths involving law enforcement officers throughout his career. Those cases were not merely files or statistics. The fallen officers were colleagues, friends, subordinates, and members of an extended law enforcement family. “Life-and-death situations changed his life forever,” Topping's story makes clear. The loss of family members, friends, colleagues, and coworkers, many to violence, left lasting scars that did not disappear when an investigation ended. In this Special Episode, he speaks about the difficult responsibility of investigating an officer's death while also processing the grief that comes with losing someone he knew and supervised. His account reveals a side of police work rarely seen by the public: officers may be expected to mourn, lead, investigate, and continue answering calls at the same time. On The TV Show COPS: Hostage Negotiator and Life Behind the Badge. Special Episode. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, iHeartradio and most major podcast platforms. Sheriff Negotiation: When Every Word Matters Topping also served as a hostage negotiator for the sheriff's office, an assignment in which patience and communication can mean the difference between life and death. A Sheriff's Hostage Negotiation is far more complicated than simply talking to a person in crisis. Negotiators must remain composed while communicating with people who may be armed, suicidal, emotionally unstable, or holding others against their will. At the same time, they must coordinate with tactical officers, commanders, emergency personnel, and other members of the response team. Every word matters. So do timing, tone, patience, and the ability to listen. The goal is often to slow a dangerous situation down, establish trust, gather information, and create an opportunity for a peaceful resolution. Yet negotiators must work with the knowledge that a sudden action or misunderstood phrase could change everything. Topping's experiences offer a rare look at the emotional control required to communicate during a crisis while lives hang in the balance. They also show why the work can remain with a negotiator long after the scene has been cleared. On The TV Show COPS: A View From Inside the Patrol Car Topping was also featured On The TV Show COPS, placing part of his law enforcement career before a national television audience. Produced by Langley Productions, COPS premiered on the Fox network on March 11, 1989. The American documentary television series is currently in its 38th season and has become known for following police officers and sheriff's deputies during patrols, calls for service, narcotics investigations, prostitution stings, and the execution of search and arrest warrants. Some episodes have also featured state and federal agencies. On The TV Show COPS: Hostage Negotiator and Life Behind the Badge. Special Episode. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast continues bringing listeners real conversations from the front lines of crime, policing, trauma, survival, and healing. The show's style traditionally uses no narration, scripted dialogue, incidental music, or added sound effects. Instead, viewers experience events through the officers' comments and the actions of the people they encounter, creating the program's familiar “fly on the wall” perspective. Most episodes contain three self-contained segments, often concluding with one or more arrests. But even an unscripted television program can show only part of what an officer experiences. Cameras may capture the call, pursuit, or arrest, but they cannot always reveal the years of training behind an officer's decisions or the emotional consequences that may follow. Topping's appearance on COPS gives him a distinctive perspective on the difference between watching law enforcement on television and living with the responsibility of the badge every day. Books Inspired by Violence, Loss, and Survival Beyond his military and law enforcement service, Glenn Topping is an accomplished author of several Books rooted in experiences that shaped his life. His most recent book, Look, a Quarter: A Young Boy's Pursuit of a Dream, chronicles his journey from childhood in Queens through military service and a decorated law enforcement career in South Florida. The book explores both the good and the bad: childhood dreams, professional success, life-and-death encounters, and the losses that permanently changed him. Topping writes about family members, friends, colleagues, and coworkers who died, many as a result of violence. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium, Blogspot and Linkedin. Yet his story does not end in tragedy. It ultimately leads to the loving family he built and the purpose he found after years of confronting violence and death. His first novel, The Hurt, grew from another traumatic experience. It follows Topping's story surrounding the drive-by shooting death of a friend from a South Florida club where they worked during the early 1980s. On The TV Show COPS: Hostage Negotiator and Life Behind the Badge. Special Episode. The title captures the lasting damage caused by violent crime, not only to the person killed, but also to the friends, relatives, coworkers, and witnesses who must live with what happened. The Hurt is available online through Barnes & Noble, Amazon, Xlibris, Kindle, and Nook. A Special Episode About the Reality Behind the Badge This Special Episode is more than a conversation about a retired deputy or a famous television program. It is an examination of what police work can demand from the people who perform it. Glenn Topping's story moves from military police service to South Florida law enforcement, from Sheriff's Hostage Negotiation to the investigation of a subordinate deputy's death, and from appearing On The TV Show COPS to writing Books about violence, grief, hope, and survival. His experiences provide an unfiltered look at the responsibilities officers carry when the public calls for help and the memories they may continue carrying decades later.

This episode of the show is brought to you in part by Mars Men. You hit your 30s and 40s, and things start to feel different. Now that I'm in my 60s, I've really noticed the change. My energy drops faster. Recovery takes longer. Workouts don't have the same impact they once did. Most importantly, what worked for me in my 20s simply doesn't work anymore. So, I started looking for answers. Honestly, the testosterone-support space can be confusing, and much of it sounded sketchy. I don't want to become a professional bodybuilder. I just want to look and feel more like the old me. Thankfully, I found Mars Men, and I couldn't be more grateful.

Thinking about doing something isn't doing it. Planning it isn't doing it. Talking about it isn't doing it. Eventually, you have to do the thing.In this Thursday Founder Classic episode of Screw It Just DO It, Antony “Staz” Stazicker, former Special Forces operator and co-founder of ThruDark, shares his uncompromising philosophy on overcoming hesitation and executing under pressure.Staz spent 13 years in the military—including 10 years in the Special Boat Service (SBS) as a Sergeant and Chief Sniper Instructor—before walking away at age 33 to start from scratch in a field he knew nothing about.In this hard-hitting, 6-to-7-minute Founder Classic, Staz breaks down:• Why thinking, planning, and talking are not substitutes for execution• Leaving Special Forces at the top of his game to embrace a white-belt beginner mindset• The birth of ThruDark on a desert drop zone and starting in a front room with a borrowed whiteboard• Why building a business proved far harder than expected and why "people invest in people"• The military concept of "battle prep": defining the mission, working backwards, and executing without overthinking• The single factor behind making the leap and sustaining success: peopleKey Takeaways• Leap of faith: You don't need all the answers before taking action—commit first• Eliminate Plan B: Committing 100% to Plan A removes the temptation to settle• Battle prep your goals: Break intimidating missions down into progressive, executable steps• People over everything: High performance relies entirely on surrounding yourself with passionate, dedicated teammates
How would you like to work the busiest volunteer firehouse in the nation?This house answers an average of four to five thousand calls for service a year. That's more than many career departments, and they do it out of one station.Perhaps not surprisingly, the Kentland Volunteer Fire Department has no problem recruiting firefighters. They even staff a minimum of four people on overnights. And this is not a combination department. It's all-volunteer.Located in Prince George's County, Maryland, Kentland prides itself on high standards.How do they do all this?Here to answer that question is Alex Caldaro, the Truck 33 Sergeant. He's a fifteen-year veteran of the fire service who also works at Wilson's Mills Fire Department in Clayton, North Carolina, where he's Captain of Ladder 5.
What a week. AI's going to kill us all – unless Putin gets there first. More drones and flare-ups from him, allegedly, in the skies above Europe. Trump's pushing Carney into the arms of another lover in Ursula von der Leyen. It was all hugs and kisses in Strasbourg. The Aussies are making big moves to cut immigration. Central bankers are hiking off the back of war and oil. And here in New Zealand, we're dropping the C-bomb in Parliament again. This time it was Debbie from the Māori Party. Things got a bit out of hand. While the world was busy dealing with important matters, like preserving humanity, Willie Jackson was defending Debbie's C-bomb. Parliament's bouncer, The Sergeant-at-Arms, was called on to help kick him out of the House! Wild times in the debating chamber. The Sergent is rarely called on to bounce politicians because politicians normally take their punishment and leave. But Willie was having none of that. The Sergeant, whose frankly baller job title is up there with the Usher of the Black Rod, was thankfully saved from getting his hands dirty. He didn't need to bust out the Mace and start prodding the pollies with it. Jackson eventually left the Chamber. Parliament carried on. As did the rest of the world, which was a bit busy on more important issues of the day. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join the waitlist: https://thecapablestandard.com/waitlistI sat down with four veteran tactical professionals at the National Tactical Officers Association Conference in Nashville to have the conversation that needed to happen two days after that 2022 NTOA position paper on no-knock warrant service dropped.At the table: Steve Mescan, Director of Training and Education for the NTOA and a 27-year Pittsburgh Bureau of Police SWAT veteran. Chris Eklund, NTOA senior instructor and retired training coordinator and team leader from the Orange County Sheriff's Office in Florida. Matt Smith, Senior Corporal and 21-year SWAT operator with the Dallas Police Department. And Brandon Hernandez, longtime SWAT team leader, TTPOA Region VII Director, and the guy who first wanted this conversation to happen. Between them, these four men have run thousands of warrant services, trained countless officers across the country, and lived every part of this debate from the inside.What unfolds is one of the most direct and nuanced conversations the Iron Sights Podcast has ever hosted. The group tears apart why the word 'dynamic' means something completely different depending on which team, which region, or which instructor you learned it from. They dig into why the Dallas SWAT data on officer-involved shootings tells a story that the position paper never addressed, and how and why teams across the country interpreted and responded to the position paper in the way they did. Most importantly, they agree on more than they disagree, and that agreement points to the real problem: terminology confusion, broken communication chains, and agencies running operations outside their actual capability with nobody willing to say the hard thing.This episode is essential listening for anyone inside law enforcement, for the civilians and professionals who want to actually understand the job, and for anyone who has ever watched a news story about a warrant service and assumed they knew what happened. You didn't have the context. Now you will.In this episode:• A 'no-knock' warrant is a judicial exception obtained by an investigator, not a tactic: it gives a team options but does not dictate how entry is made. Teams can and should still announce presence, purpose, and authority even when holding that exception.• The word 'dynamic' has no universal definition across U.S. SWAT teams: some teams use it to mean speed-surprise-violence-of-action with no processing, while others use it to mean continuous deliberate movement with throttle control, and the same team will sometimes split on the term mid-operation.• The Dallas SWAT team data inverts the assumption that dynamic entry is categorically more dangerous.• The NTOA position paper was intended to address teams running no-knock exceptions as a direct trigger for immediate silent entry, a practice seen causing 'biblical disasters' nationally, but the marketing and framing created a blanket interpretation that affected capable teams who were never the intended audience.• A centering step, a threshold assessment, a center step, and pie-ing the door can all describe the same physical movement at different speeds: the failure is not in the movement but in instructors teaching the label without teaching the 'why,' leaving officers to follow a tick list instead of solving the actual problem in front of them.• Selection is the upstream problem nobody wants to address: tactics get watered down or abandoned not because the tactic is wrong but because leadership refuses to have the hard conversation that a specific operator or team is not capable of executing it safely.• The LEOKA data used to support arguments about entry method risk is so vague and inconsistently reported, with a five-percent response rate on NTOA member surveys, that drawing hard-line scientific conclusions from it is inherently problematic, and both sides of this debate are operating with incomplete data.• Announcing presence, purpose, and authority on every warrant, even with a no-knock exception in hand, is compulsory.Chapters:0:01 Pre-roll: The Capable Standard and The Brief1:33 Show intro and mission statement2:25 Nashville NTOA Conference context and guest introductions4:59 Steve Mescan bio: Pittsburgh SWAT to NTOA Director of Training6:44 Chris Eklund bio: Orange County SO to NTOA senior instructor9:49 Matt Smith and Brandon Hernandez introductions14:03 What the NTOA is, what it does, and how it fits into LE24:51 Content without context: how social media distorts incident debriefs27:44 Terminology breakdown: no-knock, dynamic, and why words matter30:13 What 'dynamic' actually means across different teams and regions33:01 Deliberate vs. dynamic: centering steps, threshold assessments, and the tick-list trap49:29 Selection, capability, and the hard conversation nobody wants to haveMentioned:Steve Mescan — Director of Training and Education for the NTOA and retired 27-year Pittsburgh Bureau of Police SWAT operator, appearing as a guest at the NTOA Nashville conference.Chris Eklund — NTOA senior instructor and retired Sergeant and SWAT training coordinator from the Orange County Sheriff's Office in Florida, appearing as a guest at the NTOA Nashville conference.Matt Smith — Dallas Police Department Senior Corporal and 21-year SWAT operator who provides Dallas-specific data on warrant service outcomes and challenges the framing of the NTOA position paper.Brandon Hernandez — Garland Police Department SWAT team leader and TTPOA Region VII Director who initiated the conversation and pushes back on how the NTOA paper affected capable teams.John Kolman — Founder of the NTOA in 1983, described as having written approximately 200 letters with his wife to gauge interest in a national tactical officers organization.Ron McCarthy — Deceased LAPD SWAT pioneer and one of the NTOA's original figures, credited with both advocating for hostage-rescue-style tactics as a readiness tool and later raising early concerns about risk mitigation in their application.
As we reflect on the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, this episode takes a poignant look at the heroism and resilience of those who responded to the tragedy. We're joined by Mike Fish, a retired Boston police officer who traveled to Ground Zero to offer his support in the aftermath of the devastating attacks.Mike shares his personal story of how he felt compelled to help, despite the chaos and uncertainty that surrounded him. He recounts his experiences at Ground Zero, where he worked alongside other first responders to search for survivors and recover the remains of those who lost their lives. We hear about the challenges he faced, from the lack of protective gear and the overwhelming sense of danger, to the small acts of kindness that kept him and his colleagues going.As we delve into Mike's story, we're reminded of the importance of remembering and honoring the sacrifices of those who served and lost their lives on 9/11. We're also encouraged to think about the lessons we can learn from this pivotal moment in history and how we can pass them on to future generations.In this powerful and emotional conversation, Mike shares his reflections on the importance of teaching history and the need for young people to understand the sacrifices made by those who came before them. If you're looking for a poignant reminder of the resilience and heroism of those who responded to 9/11, and a call to action to preserve the lessons of this pivotal moment in history, tune in to this episode.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Episode 261 of the Transition Drill podcast explores identity, leadership, family sacrifice, and life after law enforcement for veterans and first responders navigating the transition out of service. You'll hear James Snow on what happens when the job becomes too much of who you are, and what it takes to build purpose, relationships, and leadership in and beyond the uniform.Back for a second time since Episode 155, James reflects on a 28-and-a-half-year law enforcement career that included time in Orange County, 10 years with Rialto Police Department, and the San Bernardino Sheriff's Department; retiring as a sergeant. He talks candidly about promotions, organizational culture, ego, leadership failures, and the hard truth that being great at the job doesn't automatically make someone a great leader.He also looks at the personal cost. James talks about his biggest career regret is the time and attention his family didn't receive while he chased assignments, advancement, and professional growth. Retirement has given him space to recognize those costs, change old habits, raise his granddaughter differently, and reconnect with the people and priorities that matter.Three years into retirement, James has built a life that isn't defined by his former title. His first book, The Pivot, focused on identity and transition. His new book, The Quiet Professional, turns toward leadership, arguing that rank and authority aren't the same as influence. It's a conversation about leaving service without losing purpose, leading without ego, and becoming more than the career you left behind.CONNECT WITH THE PODCAST:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/paulpantani/WEBSITE: https://www.transitiondrillpodcast.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulpantani/SIGN-UP FOR THE NEWSLETTER:https://transitiondrillpodcast.com/home#aboutQUESTIONS OR COMMENTS:paul@transitiondrillpodcast.comCHAPTERS0:00:00 — Intro: Life Beyond the Badge0:05:31 — The Family Paid the Price0:15:21 — When the Job Becomes Your Identity0:18:31 — Build a Life Outside the Uniform0:23:08 — Escaping the Echo Chamber0:32:18 — Expertise Doesn't Make You a Leader0:42:21 — Can Leadership Be Taught?0:49:19 — Take Care of Your People0:56:08 — Your Idea May Be the Worst One1:01:16 — Why He Wrote The Quiet Professional1:04:53 — Your Position Will Be Filled1:09:02 — Leaders Have to Admit They're Fallible1:13:18 — What You Tolerate, You Condone1:18:16 — What Each Generation Leaves Behind1:26:11 — Hard Work, Opportunity, and Gratitude1:31:07 — Who Are You When It Really Matters?1:33:59 — Rebuilding the Body After the Career1:36:20 — The Craftsman Project Takes Shape1:46:09 — Getting Back the Time With His Dad1:53:43 — The Meaning of the Quiet ProfessionalSPONSORS:GRND Collective: Premium, veteran-owned sportswear built for those who show up, outwork the excuses, and give 100%.

Chef John's love of cooking started long before he ever opened a restaurant. Rooted in Genovese and Sicilian tradition, his lessons came from family tables in San Francisco, California, with Mamalee, his father John and from summers spent in Italy learning to make pasta by hand alongside his great aunt, Lala Mariuchia and cousins — the same way his family has for generations. That heritage carried him through one previous restaurant in Costa Rica, before bringing him home to Texas. While building his culinary journey, Chef John also dedicated more than 20 years to the San Francisco Police Department, retiring as a Sergeant after a distinguished career. He spent the majority of those years working in plainclothes and undercover assignments, including serving as a Task Force Officer with the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA). Throughout his years in law enforcement, his passion for cooking never faded-it simply waited for the right time to become his full time calling. Today, inside the historic Rogers Hotel in downtown Waxahachie, John's Place is Chef John's second concept and his most personal expression of everything he loves about food, family and hospitality. Family photos line the walls, and an open kitchen behind the bar offers guests a front-row seat to the teamwork and craftsmanship that brings each dish to life. Whether he's working the line or stopping by tables to great guests, Chef John's genuine passion is unmistakable. Every plate tells a story, every meal honors his family's legacy and every guest is welcome as if they were part of it.https://www.visitjohnsplace.comSend us Fan MailFirecracker Farm Small-batch Spicy Salt Family farm with a secret blend of Carolina Reaper, Ghost, and Trinidad Scorpion peppers.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Buckle up for a wild ride into the gritty, unfiltered world of 1970s New York City policing.In this episode of Tall Boy Radio, host Beans sits down with a true legend of law enforcement: Retired Lieutenant Commander Vernon Geberth. While he is globally renowned today as the definitive authority on homicide investigation, this conversation takes us back to the raw, high-stakes early days of his career—specifically, his time as a hard-charging Tactical Patrol Force (TPF) Sergeant.Times have changed, but the stories haven't faded. Vernon opens up about his maverick, "gung-ho" tactics that fiercely prioritized saving lives and cleaning up the streets, even if it meant rewriting the rulebook on the fly. We dive deep into an era of policing that simply wouldn't fly in today's world, featuring jaw-dropping, real-life accounts of:Cleaning Up Times Square: Taking an uncompromising, tough-as-nails line against the notorious pimps and hustlers who dominated the neon-lit strip.The Cherry Bomb Incidents: How a little unauthorized, improvised pyrotechnics became the ultimate tool for flushing dangerous perps out of barricaded buildings.Air Support on a Whim: The audacious moment Vernon called in NYPD helicopters without a shred of official authority to seal the deal on a major operation."We didn't wait for permission back then; we waited for results."Despite the unorthodox methods, Geberth's results spoke for themselves. His fearless leadership earned him numerous medals, official recognition from the highest levels of the department, and most importantly, ensured that countless citizens and officers made it home safe.Whether you're a true crime junkie, a history buff, or just love a good story about a rogue cop getting the job done, this is an episode you absolutely cannot miss.Buy Vernon's "Godfather of Homicide" book here :THE GODFATHER OF HOMICIDE: VERNON J.

Send us Fan MailBen agreed to be on the show before I realized he was NOT retired! At the time, he was a Sergeant, but in true Ben Frie fashion he just didn't care. He's a "wordsmith," he's never had much of a filter and you can always count on Ben to just say what's on his mind.It made working the downtown district with him very interesting to say the least! But, as you'll hear in this "Best Of" episode is that Ben started out his working life as a Marine, then joined the City of Tucson where he has continued to move up the department while having some very significant police experiences along the way...Turn him up so you don't miss any of his tales and enjoy the show!

Two witnesses with very different vantage points took the stand this week in the Lindsay Clancy trial — one clinical, one procedural, both consequential. Clancy, 34, of Duxbury, Massachusetts, faces three counts of murder and three counts of strangulation over the deaths of her three children — Cora, 5, Dawson, 3, and Callan, 7 months — who prosecutors allege she strangled with exercise resistance bands inside the family's Summer Street home on January 24, 2023. She's pleaded not guilty, and her attorney, Kevin Reddington, is arguing an insanity defense centered on severe postpartum psychosis and psychiatric overmedication.Sgt. Robert Flynn of the Duxbury Police Department testified he was present when State Police executed the search warrant at the home, and told the court there was no damage to the window or screen — a detail that's going to matter a great deal to anyone tracking the physical evidence around Clancy's alleged fall. Flynn confirmed State Police took over the investigation after that.Forensic psychiatrist Dr. Jhilam Biswas described her initial assessment of Clancy, focused on evaluating her safety and state of mind. Biswas told the court psychosis symptoms present differently from person to person, but said that during the roughly 20 minutes she communicated with Clancy, she observed no signs of active psychosis.Clancy is accused of attempting suicide after the killings, leaving her paralyzed from the waist down. Her husband, Patrick Clancy, was running errands at the time and has since relocated to Manhattan. The trial is underway in Plymouth Superior Court and is expected to run several weeks.LinksJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Send us Fan MailSergeant Bryan Savaloja from the Wadena County Sheriff's Office joined Liz Collin on her podcast. He explained some of the details involved in a recent drug bust in rural Minnesota — a law enforcement partnership that nabbed five suspects, including two illegal aliens, who were recently sentenced to more than 43 years in prison. “This was a huge case,” he said. “We have dangerous people who are entering our country illegally and committing crimes that are killing our citizens.” Support the show
When Dallas calls, the men and women of the Dallas Police Department step forward.
