Podcasts about sheriffs

Richard Mack, the former Sheriff of Graham County, Arizona, served in law enforcement for 20 years. In 1988 he was elected to the office of Sheriff in his hometown and served as such for eight years. In 1991 he graduated from the FBI Academy. Sheriff Mack is the Founder and President of the Constitutional Sheriffs & Peace Officers Association- This organization that brings citizens, law enforcement, sheriffs, and elected officials together. He has provided hundreds of training seminars to Sheriffs, Police, and Public Officials in all 50 states and in several other countries across the world.  He has also appeared on CNN, FOX, MSNBC,CBS, ABC, Newsmax, NYTimes, LA Times, USA Today, and over 1,000 networks worldwide 

On this episode of Joe Oltmann Untamed, Joe rips open the Colorado corruption scandal with a bombshell federal complaint: Christopher S.P. Gregory accuses the entire Colorado Supreme Court, Governor Jared Polis, Attorney General Phil Weiser, and dozens of judicial discipline officials of a six-year conspiracy to cover up a $2.66–$2.75 million bribe/public fraud involving former SCAO Chief of Staff Mindy Masias—deliberately hiding material facts from the federally required State Auditor audit. The complaint names nearly every sitting Justice (Berkenkotter, Boatright, Gabriel, Hart, Hood, Márquez, Samour) personally and officially, alleging systemic obstruction of justice, criminal violations, and breaches of the Colorado Code of Judicial Conduct to shield themselves from accountability.We dive deeper into the web: Justice Melissa Hart's sudden resignation (announced Dec 2025, effective Jan 2026) after two concussions and family issues comes under fresh scrutiny especially with her prior car accidents (2017 and March 2025) and a dog bite incident leading to injury, none of which appear properly reported or disciplined despite her high office. Gregory's filing demands revocation of Hart's deferred judgment in a 2025 traffic case, referral to conflict-free federal law enforcement, Denver Police investigation, and a special prosecutor calling out the judicial system's pattern of self-protection and taxpayer-funded hush money via NDAs.The stakes are massive: if these allegations hold, Colorado's highest court and executive branch face potential federal scrutiny for fraud, conspiracy, and abuse of power. Joe connects the dots on how this ties to election fraud, clerk corruption, and activist judges and charts the path forward: no more retreat, demand arrests, expose the cabal, and reclaim accountability. Tune in live truth is hitting like a freight train, the swamp is exposed, and justice is coming fast!

As police continue to investigate the abduction of the 84 year old mother of Savannah Guthrie, the Sheriff’s department had to put out a statement today refuting an allegation made by journalist Ashleigh Banfield. Banfield has claimed a “high level source” told her that Savannah’s brother-in-law may be the prime suspect in Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance. As several news outlets picked up on the headline, the sheriff’s department responded by acknowledging that while detectives continue to speak with anyone who had contact with Nancy Guthrie, NO suspects have been identified at this time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Another bizarre turn in the abduction of Savannah Guthrie’s mom. TMZ has given police a ransom note they received from someone who claims to have Nancy Guthrie, demanding millions in cryptocurrency by a specific deadline, “or else.” TMZ says the note has details about the crime scene that only the suspect would know, and the Sheriff’s Office has confirmed they are aware of “reports of a possible ransom note.” In the Meantime, comments have started pouring in about the case online and it’s already gotten political and frankly, cruel. We hope Savannah never reads them.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Investigators just held a news conference on the latest information into Savanna Guthrie’s missing mom, and several moments jumped out to us. First, the sheriff was asked twice about whether a ransom has been asked surrounding the abduction of 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, and both times the sheriff did NOT say no. Instead he said his team was following all of their investigative leads. The sheriff also told reporters that DNA samples processed from Guthrie’s home have not implicated any specific suspect. Also of note, despite the urgency in finding Guthrie given that she’s not with her necessary daily medication, the sheriff said - barring any major developments - the next press conference wouldn’t take place for another 48 hours. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Authorities are pleading with the public for help in finding 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie. She was last seen late Saturday at her Arizona home. After initially investigating the case as a "missing, vulnerable adult," the sheriff now says there is a crime scene at her home and he believes she was abducted. He also said they haven't dismissed the theory that her disappearance is connected to her daughter, Today Show co-anchor, Savannah Guthrie. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This message invites us to read the Bible not merely as a text about Jesus,but as a place where we encounter Jesus Himself. On the road to Emmaus,the risen Christ walks with two confused disciples, explains the Scriptures, and reveals that the entire Bible points to Him. Their hearts burn, their eyes are opened, and their minds are given understanding, not through technique alone, but through presence. Scripture becomes life-giving when read with Jesus, allowing Him to interpret the Word He inspired. This message calls us to slow down, stay with Scripture, and let Jesus form us through burning hearts, open eyes, and understanding minds.Move us from reading the Bible for information about Jesus toencountering Jesus through the Bible.Key Scriptures:Luke 24:13-32- Jesus walks with His disciples and explains the Scriptures.Luke 24:44-45-Jesus opens minds to understand Scripture.John 5:39-40 -Scriptures testify about Jesus, yet can be readwithout coming to Him.2 Timothy 3:15 - Scripture makes us wise for salvation through faith in Christ.Support the showThis podcast is brought to you free of charge through the donations of generous people.If this content blessed you and you would like to help us reach more people, please take a few minutes to rate our podcast and leave us a review.If you'd like to support us financially, you can make donations hereIf you'd like to learn more about us you can visit our website.If you'd like to contact us directly follow this link.

Former Illinois deputy Sean Grayson is sentenced to 20 years in prison for the fatal shooting of Sonya Massey, a 36‑year‑old woman who called 911 for help before being killed in her own home.

The episode opens with a heavy national headline as former Illinois deputy Sean Grayson is sentenced to 20 years in prison for the fatal shooting of Sonya Massey, a 36‑year‑old woman who called 911 for help before being killed in her own home. The case, which sparked widespread outrage and calls for police reform, concluded with Massey’s family expressing mixed relief and grief as they received the maximum penalty allowed under law. The show then shifts to star sprinter Sha’Carri Richardson, who was arrested in Florida after authorities clocked her at 104 mph while allegedly tailgating and weaving through lanes; she was charged under the state’s “super speeder” law and released on a $500 bond. The arrest adds to her recent string of off‑track controversies but also highlights her continued visibility following her celebrated Olympic performances. In entertainment news, longtime reality TV fixture Basketball Wives is officially coming to an end after 12 seasons. Series creator Shaunie Henderson announced the decision as a moment of “growth,” reflecting on how the show became a cultural staple that amplified the voices and lives of women connected to the NBA while teasing her plans for new media projects ahead. The episode closes with developing news on journalist Don Lemon, who was arrested by federal agents while covering the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles. His arrest stems from his on‑scene reporting at a Minnesota church protest that challenged immigration enforcement. Lemon’s attorney calls the charges an attack on press freedom, especially after an earlier attempt to prosecute him was rejected by a judge.

In 2009, 246 people were victims of gun violence in Omaha, Nebraska. In 2022, that number was 121, reflective of a steady decline over more than a decade. That reduction in gun violence was the result of the work of Omaha 360, a persistent and consistent effort by organizations and leaders across the city who come together every week to share data, coordinate strategies, and respond to community needs. This work is paired with youth engagement, reentry services, and engagement with law enforcement agencies-supporting violence prevention from every angle.rnrnWillie Barney founded Omaha 360 through his work with the Empowerment Network, a community building initiative that has grown from an idea into a broad community-wide collaborative supporting efforts in education, workforce development, and housing. Douglas County, Nebraska's Sheriff's office was a key partner to the effort. Wayne Hudson--now Chief of Police in Shaker--helped to lead and support the work.rnrnMeanwhile, municipalities across Cuyahoga County have long sought to reduce gun violence. Recent years have seen emergency departments consistently reporting more than 300 gunshot wounds each year. And in 2025, County Executive Chris Ronayne appointed Myesha Watkins administrator of the county's Office of Violence Prevention, and the Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas has recently created a new Violence Intervention Program.

Running a jail can feel like a fixed equation: hire staff, manage the facility, keep order, repeat. But Pinal County (Arizona) Sheriff Ross Teeple decided the “that's just how incarceration is” mindset was fueling the same cycle of violence, lockdowns and repeat offenders. His response was as simple as it was controversial: open an entire pod 24/7, pull the detention deputy out of direct supervision, and see whether a responsibility-based model could change behavior, culture and outcomes. The experiment became the focus of Netflix's “Unlocked: A Jail Experiment” and sparked a larger conversation about what risk leadership looks like inside corrections. In this episode of Policing Matters, host Jim Dudley talks with Teeple about how the plan moved from idea to execution, including stakeholder meetings, staff skepticism, and safeguards designed to keep deputies and inmates safe while still testing a real operational shift.

Greetings from Pilda,It is the coldest January in thirty years. Outside my window, the thermometer is dropping, and I have just finished hauling 150kg of heating pellets into the bunker. It is the perfect atmosphere for what we need to discuss today.For years, we have been documenting the slow, bureaucratic rot of the Russian Empire. We called it the “Rotting Cake”—a structure that looked impressive from the outside but was being eaten alive by corruption from within.Well, I have bad news. The cake is gone. The rats have finished it.We have now entered the Warlord Era.In this episode of The Eastern Border, we are no longer looking at a state. We are looking at a dark, geopolitical anime where the laws of physics and logic have been suspended. The “Vertical of Power” has collapsed into a collection of feudal tribes, each led by a warlord more insane than the last.The World Boss Wakes Up While the Kremlin was busy arguing about “traditional values,” the United States decided to play Grand Theft Auto.

Valley of Shadows is a new true crime podcast that digs into a nearly 30-year old secret buried in the California desert. On June 11, 1998, Los Angeles County Sheriff's Deputy Jon Aujay set out for a run in California's Devil's Punchbowl park — and never came back. Aujay has yet to be found. The Sheriff's Department rules Aujay's disappearance a suicide, but friends, family, and fellow deputies insist the story doesn't add up. Instead, they believe Aujay may have stumbled into the Mojave Desert's criminal underworld — where outlaw biker gangs crank out methamphetamine and local cops operate on both sides of the law. Through exclusive interviews, revealing wiretaps, and buried police files, journalists Hayley Fox and Betsy Shepherd explore one of Southern California's most mysterious missing person cases. In Valley of Shadows, they ask: What is the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department hiding? Find Valley of Shadows wherever you get podcasts.
