In the 1990s, a series of brutal murders and disappearances in Southwest Florida became known as the Hog Trail Murders. Investigators began focusing on Daniel Owen Conahan Jr. after survivor David Payton described being lured into Conahan's car with an offer of beer and money. Payton escaped by stealing the car, while another survivor, Stanley Burden, described being taken into the woods, tied to a tree, and attacked. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss Daniel Conahan Jr. Multiple bodies were discovered in remote areas of Charlotte and Sarasota Counties, with several victims displaying similar injuries, rope marks, and mutilation. Investigators believe he may have been responsible for additional victims, including some of the Fort Myers Eight, though he was never charged in those cases.   You can help support the show through Patreon.

Katie has been recognized by various publications and organizations as one of the best lawyers in America, a Florida Rising Star, a member of the Legal Elite, a Legal Up & Comer, one of the Top 40 Under 40, and Woman of the Year!Conversation highlights include:How can volunteer boards, managers, and association residents stay alert to possible land use changes in their vicinity?How to determine if a proposed new development presents an incompatible commercial use with the existing neighborhood?What are typical deal points in a shared use agreement with a developer?How prevalent is the NIMBY (Not in My Backyard) mindset?What kind of next-door development do people fear the most?Why do local building departments often cite the association for certain violations when it might be the owners who created the violation without the association's knowledge or consent?Who should attend a municipal or county Code Enforcement hearing with an attorney?What can be done when a city wants to repave streets in a community or enforce traffic violations but is requiring an onerous indemnification agreement from the association?BONUS: Katie discusses various valuable resources for working moms and discusses her work with the Mother's Milk Bank of Florida.Related Links:Article: “‘NIMBY' to ‘YIMBY'” – FCAP Managers Report Article: Mind the Invisible Lines: Easements Every Board Encounters Online Class: Board Certification: Condo/Co-Op 4-HourOnline Class: Board Certification: HOA 4-Hour

A skull spotted by a kayaker in Cape Coral in 2024 became the answer to a missing persons case from 1985. Chief Anthony Sizemore hosts a special Chief Chat with Violent Crimes Detective Mike Lasalandra to explain what the community saw near Kismet Parkway and why that forensic excavation mattered. The scientific work takes time, and we break down the reality of medical examiner testing, DNA extraction, and why identification can't be rushed when the goal is truth that holds up.  Once the DNA came back, the name was Rose Marie Gayhart, a woman who moved from Western New York to Southwest Florida in the mid-80s, worked service jobs, and then vanished. We walk through the timeline: the documented relationship turmoil, the confusing early jurisdiction between New York and Florida, and the witness reports that place Rose voluntarily getting into a red pickup truck with an unknown man. We also dig into how missing person investigations worked before cameras, cell phones, and modern data sharing, and why leads often left families with nothing but questions.  Then the case turns toward what might still be solvable today: people, places, and patterns. We discuss the Jim's Pub sightings and a potential link to Roland Davis, later associated with violent crimes and known to frequent the same areas. Most importantly, we share what we need from the public now. If you remember a red pickup truck, a regular at Jim's Pub, or a conversation that never sat right, your tip could matter. If you have any information in the death of Rose Marie Gayhart, call 23-229-4331 and reference case number 13011608.To see our news release on this case, click here: https://capecops.com/2026/07/24/cape-coral-police-identify-remains-in-1985-missing-person-case/

Episode Overview In this episode of the John Kitchens Coach Podcast Experience, John sits down with Claire Gogan, leader of one of Southwest Florida's fastest-growing real estate teams. Claire shares her journey from solo agent to leading a 45-agent organization, the painful lessons she learned along the way, and how agents can create leverage without sacrificing the life they're trying to build. Whether you're a solo agent considering your first hire or a team leader trying to scale without burning out, this conversation delivers practical insights on leadership, hiring, team structures, personal development, and building a business that supports your vision. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why every successful agent eventually needs leverage The difference between building a high-paid job and building a true business How Claire transitioned from solo producer to leading a 45-agent team The three primary team models and who each one is best suited for Why hiring the right people matters more than hiring quickly How personality assessments can improve hiring decisions The role coaching played in Claire's growth journey Why conflict resolution is one of the most important leadership skills How to determine if you're meant to build a team—or simply build leverage The mindset shifts required to survive the difficult early stages of growth How AI is impacting team structure, leadership, and the future of real estate Key Takeaways Get Clear Before You Build Too many agents build businesses based on what they see others doing instead of what they actually want. Before choosing a team model, ask yourself: What kind of life do I want? Do I love selling? Do I enjoy leading people? Am I building freedom or creating another job? Clarity must come before growth. There Is More Than One Way to Build a Team Claire breaks down three common team structures: 1. Small Leverage Team Perfect for agents who love selling Built around an admin, showing partner, and listing support Highly profitable and lean 2. High-Service Team Higher standards and stronger support systems Focused on agent development and market share Typically built around listings and leadership 3. Mega Team Large-scale organizations with 100+ agents Lower profit margins but greater opportunities through ancillary businesses like mortgage, title, insurance, and investments Hire for Strengths, Not Similarities One of Claire's biggest breakthroughs came when she stopped hiring people she liked and started hiring people whose strengths complemented her weaknesses. The right people create leverage. The wrong people create more work. Leadership Requires Letting Go Great people don't want to be micromanaged. If you want to scale: Build systems Create accountability Trust your team Allow people to make mistakes and grow Control limits growth. Failure Is Part of the Process Every team leader faces difficult seasons. Claire shares stories of: Bad hires Turnover Overwhelm Questioning whether to continue The difference between those who succeed and those who quit often comes down to one thing: Staying in the game long enough to learn. Conflict Resolution Is a Leadership Multiplier The ability to navigate difficult conversations impacts: Leadership Sales Negotiations Recruiting Team culture Learning how to handle conflict with respect and confidence can improve every area of your business. Abundance Beats Scarcity One of Claire's most important leadership principles: Lead from abundance. Scarcity creates fear-based decisions. Abundance creates opportunities, growth, and better leadership.

We also discuss what it takes to build a case from the smallest starting point, including digital forensics, analytics, and a timeline strong enough to stand up in trial.We then talk about how the collaborative NETFORCE arrests underscore the real link between violent crime and narcotics trafficking across Southwest Florida, with a multi-year investigation involving fentanyl, cocaine, MDMA, THC wax, major currency seizures, and 30 firearms removed from circulation. The takeaway is simple: criminals cross borders, so effective policing has to cross them too.We close with the numbers that shape everything: calls for service are climbing fast, yet our Priority 1 response time drops below five minutes. We explain how data-driven policing, redistricting into four precincts, and smart deployment help reduce the time from ring to knock and why we still need staffing growth even with a low vacancy rate.

A teenage girl watches her world change dramatically when her close friend is hit by a car while crossing the street. N'Evaeh's friend Stella is making a recovery, but the fear and helplessness she faced drove her to do something rare: N'Evaeh put the pain into words, and sent a raw, thoughtful email to Cape Coral leaders, and found out that people will listen when the message is clear and the stakes are human.In this episode of the Cape CopCast 'Chief's Chat,' Chief Sizemore and Public Affairs Officer Lisa Greenberg talk with N'Evaeh about what sparked her advocacy, how writing can be therapeutic, and why “doing nothing is not an option” when community safety is on the line.

Stay in the moment.We also zoom out to the shared responsibility that makes safer streets possible, from drivers and pedestrians to bicyclists, e-bike riders, police education and enforcement, and smarter road design and infrastructure. The conversation ends with a hopeful update on Stella's recovery and a reminder that one student voice can create real momentum.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Leah Miller discuss: Run your law firm like a business, not a hobby Use accurate financials to avoid hidden risks and overpayment Track key metrics and benchmarks for people, operations, and marketing Leverage metrics to make strategic growth decisions   Key Takeaways: Long-term growth requires regular attention to financials. Cash in the bank is not a strategy; data should guide hiring, marketing, and operational decisions. Bad bookkeeping masks problems and can cost in taxes. Early investment in a bookkeeper or financial team yields high ROI and clarity. Monitor payroll, operating costs, and marketing spend as percentages of revenue. Focus on trends over time and adapt to what works for your firm. Financial data informs hiring, marketing, and process improvements. Treat new hires as investments, plan for cash gaps, and track time spent on business development for accountability.   "If you're not paying attention to the dollars and you're not operational decisions based on the finances, you are not going to have that long-term, sustained growth that you're looking for as a lawyer in a firm." —  Leah Miller   Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.   Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?
