Author Tom Sileo tells the inspiring story of the late Michael Ollis, one of thousands of young men who followed their fathers into the military. On August 28, 2013, Ollis, Staten Island native and 10th mountain soldier, was serving at Forward Operating Base Ghazni, a joint force partner mission with the Polish military. During a sneak attack, a suicide bomber detonated his explosive vest and Sgt. Ollis threw himself in front of Polish comrade, Karol Cierpica, whom he'd only met and fought side-by-side with minutes earlier. His selfless action saved the life of Cierpica and many others.Celebrated to this day in the U.S. and especially his hometown of Staten Island, Ollis was posthumously awarded the Distinguished Service Cross (the highest honor in the U.S. Army) and–perhaps even more remarkably–was honored by the Polish military as well, and is considered a hero in that country as well. Ollis's family later met and embraced Cierpica (the man he saved) as family, and Cierpica named his son after Michael. In his book, “I Have Your Back,” military author and expert on the Global War on Terror, Sileo honors one of America's more recent heroes.Heroes Behind HeadlinesExecutive Producer Ralph PezzulloProduced & Engineered by Mike DawsonMusic provided by ExtremeMusic.com

Send us a textWhat happens when the justice system refuses to correct its mistakes? Edward Harrison's story is a chilling reminder of how difficult it is to overturn a wrongful conviction, even with compelling evidence of innocence.Harrison describes being accused of raping a woman while he was already incarcerated for a parole violation – a physical impossibility that should have invalidated the case immediately. The complainant, described as a schizophrenic woman with addiction issues, later admitted to fabricating the allegation because she feared losing her bed at a treatment facility. Despite this recantation and numerous procedural violations – including detective-written statements, mismatched physical descriptions, and improperly handled evidence – Harrison was pressured into going to trial for a sexual misconduct he did not commit.The consequences have been devastating. Harrison must register as a sex offender, undergo regular polygraph tests, and faces significant barriers to employment despite his qualifications. For over two years, Staten Island's Conviction Investigation Unit has possessed all evidence proving his innocence but continues to stall with claims they're "still reviewing" materials. Since its formation in 2019, this unit has overturned only one conviction, compared to hundreds reviewed by similar units in other NYC boroughs.This conversation pulls back the curtain on Staten Island's notoriously conservative justice system, where judges, lawyers, and police officers live and work together, creating an environment resistant to acknowledging mistakes. Harrison's fight for vindication highlights how wrongful convictions disproportionately impact Black and Brown communities and the uphill battle faced by those seeking justice.Have you witnessed similar injustices in your community?

Send us a textThe veil lifts on a shocking story of betrayal, abuse, and corruption as respected Staten Island figure Elliott Carterr reveals disturbing truths about once-influential Blood leader Rameen "Ise Kream" Smith. This raw conversation exposes how a man who commanded respect throughout New Brighton's Tombstone Gangsters used fear and intimidation to mask predatory behavior.Mr. Carterr, a Staten Island podcaster with firsthand prison experiences alongside Ise Kream, shares court documents revealing the gang leader's arrest for sexually abusing a child under 13. The allegations are horrific—showing pornography to a minor, inappropriate touching, and more—all while Smith maintained his position of authority within the community. The 39-year-old's criminal activities eventually extended to betraying his own code, taking a proffer agreement to cooperate against fellow gang member "Tone."The conversation reveals an even more disturbing family pattern, with Ise Kream's brother Jatiek "Bad Blood" Smith allegedly approaching inmates with bizarre proposals to cooperate against them in exchange for financial support. According to news reports, both brothers have histories of sexual crimes against minors, using their gang affiliations as shields against accountability. The discussion highlights how power dynamics within gang structures can enable abusers while silencing victims and witnesses through fear of retaliation.Though some in New Brighton still support Ise Kream despite these revelations, most of Staten Island has turned against him now that the truth has emerged. This powerful episode serves as both a warning about false leaders and a testament to breaking the silence that protects predators.

Send us a textFresh out after serving four years in juvenile detention, rising Staten Island drill artist Debo (@Debo2Oppyy) pulls no punches in this candid conversation about his journey, controversies, and future plans. With seven months of freedom under his belt, he's wasting no time reclaiming his spot in the local music scene.Debo dismisses swirling rumors about incidents during his incarceration with a casual shrug, calling them just "jail work" while revealing how he beat an attempted murder charge through what he describes as a case of mistaken identity. His matter-of-fact approach to discussing serious subjects reveals a young artist who's been through the system and emerged with clear-eyed determination to move forward.The conversation shifts between musical aspirations and street realities as Debo discusses his upcoming tracks "Every Opp Shot" and "Response, Part 1," alongside his selective approach to features. "I'm not a fan," he states bluntly, establishing his confidence in his own abilities while setting boundaries around collaboration. When pressed about relationships with other Staten Island gang members, Debo maintains clear distinctions: "We're not the same thing. They are a different unit." His respect remains reserved for a select group of peers including Marsha SB, CP, and Mouladi, while dismissing older generation artists from the borough.Whether you're familiar with Staten Island's evolving drill scene or simply appreciate raw, unfiltered artist perspectives, this conversation offers a window into the mindset of a young creator navigating the complex intersection of music, street life, and personal growth.
