En Estados Unidos, el debate sobre los tiroteos escolares lleva décadas atascado. Y mientras la solución de fondo —regular el acceso a las armas— sigue siendo políticamente impensable, las escuelas se llenan de parches cada vez más sorprendentes: profesores con pistola al cinto, pasillos curvos diseñados para frenar a un tirador, mochilas antibalas y, ahora, la propuesta más distópica de todas. La empresa Axon International quiere instalar drones equipados con tasers en los colegios, pilotados en remoto desde centrales de alarma. Técnicamente viable. Moralmente turbador. Y, quizá, inevitable. En este episodio nos preguntamos cómo hemos llegado hasta aquí, y qué dice de una sociedad que su mayor reto arquitectónico al construir una escuela ya no sea la luz natural, sino el campo de tiro.

The New South Wales Police Force was so corrupt in the 1990s a royal commission was formed and it was forced to clean up its act.These days it's the most complained about force in the country and it's the national leader in legal payouts, costing taxpayers tens of millions of dollars.Today, Four Corners reporter Dylan Welch on his investigation into cases of police abuse and misconduct. Featured: Dylan Welch, Four Corners reporter

The New York Times‘ obituary (5/18/26) for former LAPD detective Mark Fuhrman quotes him saying that “policemen never get the benefit of the doubt.” The racism of Mark Fuhrman, the Los Angeles police detective whose involvement in the O.J. Simpson murder investigation helped sink the prosecution's case, was so well-known comedian Dana Carvey once mocked him with a Nazi salute, calling him “Mark the Fuhrer-man.” Fuhrman's death this month (New York Times, 5/18/26) took middle-aged and older Americans back to 1995, when the televised trial of Simpson, accused of murdering his ex-wife and her friend, dominated media for much of the year. During the trial, audio recordings and witness testimony revealed Fuhrman's use of the n-word and other racist views, sinking his credibility as the cop responsible for recovering the “bloody glove,” the key piece of evidence tying Simpson to the killings. Because he had previously testified that he never used the word, it opened an opportunity for the defense to suggest he wasn't honest about other things—and had a motivation to frame a Black celebrity. Unrelenting racism In July 2017, CNN‘s Kyra Phillips played new excerpts from the Fuhrman tapes. The tapes portrayed hours of unrelenting racism. “All these n*****s in L.A. city government…all of them should be lined up against a wall and fucking shot,” he said. And often sexism as well: “What if I’ve just been raped by two buck n*****s, and a female shows up?” During the trial, witness Kathleen Bell testified that Fuhrman had said, “If I had my way, all the n*****s would be gathered together and burned.” Bell told the court, “When he sees a Black man with a white woman driving in a car, he pulls them over,” with no traffic violation needed (Washington Post, 9/5/95). Fuhrman became the national representation of the American racist cop. He invoked the Fifth Amendment when questioned about his handling of evidence (LA Times, 9/7/95), offering the shadow of a doubt the jury needed to acquit the former football and movie star. In his fiery closing argument, defense attorney Johnnie Cochran characterized Fuhrman as “this perjurer, this racist, this genocidal racist.” Fuhrman pleaded no contest to a perjury charge a year later (CNN, 10/2/96). But there was something bigger about Fuhrman, and it's something we can deeply feel in the media environment today. ‘Unwitting catalyst’ Mark Fuhrman interviewed in ESPN‘s OJ: Made in America (2016). The legal “dream team” Simpson assembled certainly focused on pushing the jury for an acquittal—that's a defense lawyer's job. But as outlined in both the dramatized The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story on FX and ESPN's OJ: Made in America, defense lead Cochran also built a larger case for a larger audience. (Side note: FAIR's Janine Jackson briefly appears in the ESPN documentary in a segment about media coverage of the trial.) Nicole Brown Simpson was killed at her Los Angeles home, along with Ron Goldman, on June 12, 1994, just two years after the city was engulfed in racial rioting as a result of an acquittal of police officers who had been videotaped brutally beating a Black man, Rodney King. For much of America, the rioting was a dividing moment. Civil rights activists saw it as the explosion of a powder keg under pressure of decades of tension between LA's Black community and the cops. A great deal of white America saw the rioting as an inexplicable overreaction. Press voices had their doubts too. Newsweek (5/10/92) called the looting “a manic fiesta, a TV game show with every looter a winner.” Cochran set out to change the narrative, to demonstrate to the white public that Black Los Angeles has systemically suffered from racist policing. Ben Ehrenreich (Guardian, 4/22/20): “The thousands of African Americans who migrated to Los Angeles from the Jim Crow south had found similar cruel realities awaiting them.” In Set the Night on Fire, Mike Davis and Jon Weiner outline the ongoing war against the Black community by LA cops in the 1960s, erupting in the 1965 Watts riots. From the Guardian‘s review (4/22/20): LA's police make dramatic appearances in almost every chapter, clubbing peaceful protesters, brutalizing activists and killing so many Black men, and with such absolute impunity, that Davis and Wiener's claim that “the Manson gang were bit players compared to the forces of law and order” ends up feeling more than fair. In the authors' telling, the wanton violence of the police acted as a consistent if unwitting catalyst to historical change: It was the chaos that followed a ferocious LAPD assault on anti-war protesters that added to Lyndon Johnson's decision not to run for re-election in 1968, and the LAPD's murder of a Black Muslim named Ronald Stokes—seven other Muslims were shot in the same incident—that pushed Malcolm X towards a broader vision of Black liberation. The shared experience of LAPD violence, Davis and Wiener write, forged a “common culture of resistance” among Black and Chicano youth, white hipsters and anti-war activists, and the city's gay community. This situation hardly improved with the economic turmoil of the 1970s, or the reactionary retreat of the 1980s. For many Black Angelenos, the 1992 riots weren't about one videotape, but about this entire history. Cochran had an opportunity to reveal the situation in the early ’90s to America. And with Fuhrman, who was called by the prosecution to bring the bloody glove into evidence, Cochran was able to show a feverishly racist man at the center of this investigation. ‘Kill somebody and go have some chicken’ Sean Hannity (Hannity, 1/10/23) interviewing Pam Bondi (then a former Florida attorney general) and Mark Fuhrman. In the end, Simpson was acquitted, and Fuhrman became a symbol of a divided America. It’s quite telling that the disgraced cop later found a landing place on Fox News. The Murdoch media empire created the news network the year after the Simpson trial as the antithesis to what it claimed was a liberal slant in corporate television news. Bringing on Fuhrman as a recurring guest—and, later, giving him his own show on Fox Nation—didn’t just promote his own public rehabilitation, it foretold a shift in “acceptable” discourse on right-wing TV. Fox‘s Greta van Susteren (5/19/05) defended having him on as a frequent guest: Mark happens to be a very, very, very smart detective—one of the best I have ever worked with and I have worked with many. He really thinks about the investigations we book him on the show to discuss. But Fox was attracted to Fuhrman not by his smarts, but by his hate. The racism that spilled out in the Simpson trial—Fuhrman's animosity toward the people who he was sworn to protect and serve—catered directly to the Fox audience. Another Fox star that routinely showcased Fuhrman was Sean Hannity (Extra!, 9/13). On Hannity & Colmes (11/16/06; cited by Media Matters, 11/20/06), Fuhrman asserted that the the type of “people” he “dealt with … for 20 years” will kill somebody and go have some chicken at KFC. You will catch them eating chicken and drinking a beer after they just murdered three people. He added that “these people are out there. They’re all over the place.” In another appearance, Hannity (Hannity, 7/16/13) brought the ex-cop on to speculate on whether Black people would riot if George Zimmerman were found not guilty of murdering an unarmed Trayvon Martin in Florida. “Mark, it seems to me like it's going to be a dangerous scenario for the cities where this is going to occur,” said Hannity. Fuhrman replied, “I think you're right, Sean,” and proceeded to fantasize about protesters “assaulting people, assaulting officers, so when you cross that line, it's pretty obvious, and, you know, this is completely drawn on racial lines now.” ‘They just take more and more’ “You can always find something that doesn’t look like justice was served one way or another,” Mark Fuhrman tells Megyn Kelly (and right-wing novelist Brad Thor) on Fox‘s Kelly File (7/8/16). Fuhrman had nothing but contempt for the Black Lives Matter movement erupting in Ferguson, Missouri. He told Fox News' Megyn Kelly (8/10/15): Stopping traffic is not a lawful demonstration. Stopping pedestrians is not a lawful demonstration.  Stopping regular traffic on sidewalks in front of buildings. That is not lawful demonstrations. And they should enforce it. And you know, when you allow some kind of, you know, leeway, they just take more and more. And now we have people that are not on the city council and they’re not on the police department, no matter how represented the Black community is. They are not there. You’re dealing with gang members and street drug dealers that are just hanging out. They’re armed and they’re taking advantage of a hesitant police department. How did Fuhrman respond to a video of “a white school police officer in a Columbia [South Carolina] classroom grabbing an African-American student by the neck, flipping her backward as she sat at her desk, then dragging and throwing her across the floor” (New York Times, 10/26/15)? He made the officer a saint on Fox. Media Matters (10/27/15) quoted Fuhrman: He requested her. He verbally did that. The next level is he put a hand on her. She escalated it from there. He used soft control. He threw her on the ground, he handcuffed her. He didn’t use mace. He didn’t use a Taser. He didn’t use a stick. He didn’t kick her. He didn’t hit her. He didn’t choke her. He used a minimal amount of force necessary to effect an arrest. In 2019, he attacked Democratic presidential hopefuls for their police reform rhetoric on the Ingraham Angle (8/2/19), saying those politicians were looking to win “that 18-to-25-year-old base that is involved in all these movements—these anti-government, anti-establishment, anti-republic, anti-Trump” movements. He eventually was given his own show on Fox News spinoff Fox Nation, the Fuhrman Diaries, which ran from 2018 to 2022. (Fox promoted him as “America's most controversial detective”—LA Times, 11/29/18.) ‘Total reputational annihilation’ Just because someone lied under oath about using racial slurs dozens of times doesn’t mean they should be canceled (Wall Street Journal, 5/20/26)—and by “canceled,” we mean given their own TV show. People can and do change over time. Fuhrman gave a somewhat nuanced view on Fox News (Ingraham Angle, 5/29/20) about the police killing of George Floyd, which resulted in widespread political unrest. He called Floyd's killing “a slow-motion homicide,” and said the video footage was “a slow and really painful thing to watch of somebody grinding somebody’s face into the pavement until they’re dead.” At the Murdoch-owned Wall Street Journal, columnist Matthew Hennessey (5/20/26) christened Fuhrman a victim of cancel culture, admitting that he was a “bad cop,” but that he was among the first to suffer the total reputational annihilation that has become a hallmark of life in the digital era, where everything you say—or have ever said—will one day be used against you in the court of public opinion. It’s a strange sort of “reputational annihilation” that gets you regularly showcased on a national cable TV network, and then gives you your own show. Fuhrman’s afterlife as a commentator foretold a media conservatism that flips the narrative about racist policing on its head, where prejudice becomes a sign of expertise. It’s a legacy we live with today in MAGA America, even with Fuhrman having departed this world. Research assistance: Priyanka Bansal

Send us Fan Mail“Have you ever shot someone?” Most cops will be asked this throughout their careers, including myself. Most cops go to retirement without having to take a life. Then others have been involved in multiple officer-involved shootings (OIS). Most of the time, there is no rhyme or reason to this. Although your chances of being involved in an OIS are much greater if you are actually doing police work and not hiding behind a desk for 25 years. Welcome back, everyone, to the conclusion of one of the most dramatic and impactful stories I have ever encountered since I started this podcast with Police Officer Michael Martinez of the San Diego Police Department. A little about Mike. Michael Martinez has been a police officer with the San Diego Police Department for about 10 years. After phase training, he was assigned to Southern Division, where he worked a variety of assignments, including Patrol, Acting Detective, and Field Training Officer. Officer Martinez has been involved in four Officer-Involved Shootings, the first three within his first 18 months after field training. He took advantage of a career-and life-changing opportunity that was offered to him by the San Diego Police Department's Wellness Unit. He was diagnosed with PTSD and now shares his story with fellow law enforcement officers. He is currently a member of the Department's OIS Peer Support Team and is currently assigned to the Department's Wellness Unit. Officer Martinez has received numerous awards and commendations, including a Medal for Valor. He truly believes his assignment is his calling to help others who are struggling in silence. His goal is to break the stigma of seeking and receiving help within the first responder profession and to be a resource to officers and their families.   I admire Mike's honesty and willingness to help other cops who have gone through the trauma of being in an OIS. Mike has been through the wringer and is now helping his fellow cops. Please enjoy this raw and powerful interview with Police Officer Mike Martinez.  In today's episode, we discuss:·      The second officer involved shooting. Has he gone back to where it happened?·      Did he react differently to this one compared to the first?·      The third officer involved in a shooting. Did any bosses or friends suggest that he take a break from the street? How was his drinking and family life?·      A breakdown of the third OIS.·      The wellness unit confronting him while he was drunk.·      His path towards a first responder-only treatment facility.·      His experience there: how long and what did that treatment look like?.·      Life after treatment.·      Being voluntold to be on the wellness unit.·      An overview of his fourth officer-involved shooting. ·      What was different about this one in how he dealt with it?·      Was there ever a time when he thought perhaps he was in the wrong line of work and should get out while he was still in one piece?·      His advice to someone who is going through a tough patch in their police career.·      How can someone prepare for a career in LE? Check out my newest book!

Justin Randolph, assistant professor of history at Texas A&M University, joins Michael Stauch to discuss Mississippi Law: Policing and Reform in America's Jim Crow Countryside (UNC Press, 2026), his new book on policing in Jim Crow Mississippi, told through the lens of that state's highway patrol. Using oral history and a wide range of archival sources, Randolph narrates efforts by elites in Mississippi to modernize the police while maintaining social hierarchies, as well as efforts on the part of Black Mississippians to envision a world without police. Highlights include: What a focus on state-level policing adds to our understanding of policing; How the founding of the Mississippi highway patrol brought together various forms of policing in the Southwest, including the Texas rangers; A surprisingly robust discussion of cows, including Mississippi's economic transformation to a center of cattle raising and the rise of cattlemen's “Massive Resistance” in the 1950s; What Nina Simone revealed about policing in Mississippi, and the myth of Southern exceptionalism, in her song “Mississippi Goddam.” Guest: Justin Randolph is an assistant professor of history at Texas A&M University, and his other research projects include histories of police desegregation, rural debt peonage, the Taser, and 9-1-1. His writing has appeared in scholarly outlets like the Journal of Southern History and Southern Cultures. He has also written for popular outlets such as The Washington Post, The Mississippi Encyclopedia, and the Mississippi Center for Investigative Reporting. He has received an American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) Fellowship and prizes from both the Southern Historical Association and Agricultural History Society.

Send us Fan Mail“Have you ever shot someone?” Most cops will be asked this throughout their careers, including myself. Most cops go to retirement without having to take a life. Then others have been involved in multiple officer-involved shootings (OIS). Most of the time, there is no rhyme or reason to this. Although your chances of being involved in an OIS are much greater if you are actually doing police work and not hiding behind a desk for 25 years. Welcome everyone to part one of one of the most dramatic and impactful stories I have ever encountered since I started this podcast with Police Officer Michael Martinez of the San Diego Police Department. The conclusion of this interview will air next Sunday!A little about Mike. Michael Martinez has been a police officer with the San Diego Police Department for about 10 years. After phase training, he was assigned to the Southern Division, where he had the opportunity to work a variety of assignments, including Patrol, Acting Detective, and Field Training Officer. Officer Martinez has been involved in four Officer-Involved Shootings, the first three within his first 18 months after field training. He took advantage of a career-and life-changing opportunity that was offered to him by the San Diego Police Department's Wellness Unit. He was diagnosed with PTSD and now shares his story with fellow law enforcement officers. He is currently a member of the Department's OIS Peer Support Team and is currently assigned to the Department's Wellness Unit. Officer Martinez has received numerous awards and commendations, including a Medal for Valor. He truly believes his assignment is his calling to help others who are struggling in silence. His goal is to break the stigma of seeking and receiving help within the first responder profession and to be a resource to officers and their families.   Mike is as genuine as they get. I admire his honesty and willingness to help other cops who have gone through the trauma of being in an OIS. Please enjoy this frank and powerful interview with Police Officer Mike Martinez.  In today's episode, we discuss:·      Thank you, Mike, for your openness and honesty with this subject matter. ·      Growing up in San Diego and being a troubled youth.·      Getting sucked into the gangster lifestyle as a kid. ·      Leaving San Diego and going to college in Hawaii.·      Working as a security officer in Hawaii, especially dealing with violent / emotionally disturbed people. How that prepare him to become a cop.·      Non-cops being first responders to calls dealing with violent, emotionally ill people.·      Working in corrections.·      Moving back to San Diego and working as animal control as a road to becoming a San Diego Police officer. Interesting or funny assignments regarding that and evacuating animals during wildfires.·      Getting on the SDPD at age 30. Pros and cons.·      His first OIS.

S11E093, Police Take Out Suspect Ramming Bus With His Car During Tense Encounter Suburbs affected by rising crime due to loss of control by Baltimore Democrats. Former deputy found guilty of reckless homicide. Man accused of child molestation tased and arrested. D.C. police leaders face firing due to alleged crime data coverup. Police take out suspect ramming bus with his car during tense encounter. Leo Roundtable: Urban Lawlessness, Tactical Integrity, and the Crisis of Policy Visualizing Key Highlights... This episode of the Leo Roundtable features law enforcement professionals Chip DeBlock and Captain Bret Bartlett discussing the escalating lawlessness in major American cities and its expansion into suburban areas. The panel analyzes high-profile use-of-force incidents in Ohio, Florida, and Chicago, while critiquing the systemic failures in crime data reporting and tactical training. The discussion emphasizes the necessity of proactive policing and the dangers of "soft on crime" policies that prioritize political optics over public safety. Detailed Key Point Summary 1. The "Failed Progressive Experiment" and Urban Decay The discussion opens with a critical look at Baltimore and other "blue" jurisdictions, characterizing them as failed progressive experiments. Lawmakers are accused of being "DEI activists" whose criminal justice reforms have fueled a decade of violent crime and a subsequent exodus of productive, working-class taxpayers. This lawlessness is not contained; it is spreading into suburbs as politicians lose control of the narrative and the streets. The panel notes that cities like San Francisco, Portland, and New York are facing similar population collapses and business departures due to a lack of repercussions for criminal behavior. 2. Street Takeovers and the "Soft on Crime" Response A significant portion of the dialogue focuses on the rise of "street takeovers" by large groups of youths. Captain Bartlett argues that these groups "test the waters" to see how much they can get away with; if there is no immediate "stomp" on the behavior, it escalates. A contrast is drawn between cities that allow hoodlums to run wild and jurisdictions like Tampa, where multiple agencies recently coordinated to shut down a bridge takeover, resulting in the confiscation of approximately 50 motorcycles. The panel advocates for tough racing laws that penalize both participants and spectators to deter future incidents. Tactical Comparison: Proactive vs. Passive Policing Strategy Outcome (Perceived) Proactive (e.g., Tampa) Asset seizure, arrests, and deterrence of future "takeovers." Passive (e.g., LA/Baltimore) Escalation of lawlessness, "concrete poisoning," and taxpayer flight. Pretext Stop Bans Loss of investigative tools; higher long-term costs for residents. 3. Use of Force Analysis: Ohio and Florida Case Studies The panel dissects the conviction of former Deputy Jason Meade for reckless homicide in the 2020 death of Casey Goodson Jr. Bartlett expresses skepticism regarding the conviction, noting that if a suspect points a gun at an officer, the use of deadly force is justified regardless of whether the suspect was wearing earbuds or carrying sandwiches. They also discuss the "lag time" or "reactionary gap," explaining how an officer can legally fire shots that land in a suspect's back if the suspect turns during the second-and-a-half it takes for the brain to process the "stop shooting" command. In contrast, a Lee County, Florida, incident is praised for a successful transition from a handgun to a Taser when a child molestation suspect pulled a knife, highlighting the importance of keeping the Taser on the opposite side of the duty belt to avoid "weapon confusion". 4. Data Integrity and the Chicago Shooting Incident The episode addresses the scandal in Washington D.C., where top police officials face firing for allegedly manipulating crime statistics to make the city appear safer. Bartlett explains the technical differences between UCR (Uniform Crime Reporting) and NIBRS (National Incident-Based Reporting System), suggesting that many agencies avoid NIBRS because it more accurately records multiple offenses, leading to a perceived "spike" in crime. Finally, a Chicago shooting is reviewed where a murder suspect rammed a bus and police vehicles. The panel critiques the "dancing" (adrenaline-fueled movement) of the officers and the dangerous attempt to break a car window with the muzzle of a firearm, which could lead to a negligent discharge. Crime Reporting Standards UCR Summary-based; often used to "fudge" or simplify numbers. vs NIBRS Incident-based; captures detailed data for every offense. "A lot of agencies didn't want to go to NIBRS because there's a spike in crime [due to more accurate reporting]." - Capt. Bartlett Key Data Asset Seizure: Approximately 50 motorcycles were confiscated during the Tampa bridge takeover response. Legal Settlement: The city of Albuquerque (New Mexico) is paying $6.5 million in a fatal shooting settlement related to a mental health call. Tactical Accuracy: In the Jason Meade case, the deputy fired 6 rounds with 100% accuracy (5 in the back, 1 in the side). Chicago Incident: Officers fired at least 5 shots at a suspect ramming vehicles in Humboldt Park. To-Do Visit the new online store at leoroundtable.com to support the show.

Conclusion This episode highlights a widening gap between progressive political mandates and the operational realities of law enforcement. From the "fudging" of crime statistics in D.C. to the tactical chaos observed in Chicago, the panel argues that the lack of consistent training and the erosion of proactive policing tools (like pretext stops) are creating a vacuum of authority. The consensus remains that without strict repercussions and high-quality, frequent training, urban lawlessness will continue to deteriorate the quality of life in both cities and their surrounding suburbs.

Nightlife Tech Guru Peter Marks joins Philip Clark to bring listeners up to speed with the latest from the world of information, and where we are headed with technology.

The nation was shocked when 95-year-old Clare Nowland died after being tasered by a NSW police officer at an aged care facility in 2023. While police forces defend their policies and training, there are concerns that officers draw the weapon too quickly, not just when danger is imminent. There's also a controversial medical diagnosis called “excited delirium” that's been used to explain why it's not the device that's causing deaths. Are the devices really as safe as their maker insists?Today, reporter Grace Tobin on her Four Corners investigation into the multi-billion-dollar Taser industry. Featured: Grace Tobin, ABC investigative reporter

Hundreds of people are Tased by the Edmonton Police Service every year, and that number is rising steadily year over year. But how do we know who is being Tased, and why? It turns out that getting that information isn't as easy as you might think. CBC Edmonton investigative reporter Taylor Lambert sits down with host Clare Bonnyman to discuss the process of obtaining this data — and why these numbers matter when it comes to police enforcement.

Voici l'essentiel sur l'affaire du tir mortel impliquant un gendarme en Guadeloupe.Here are the essentials regarding the fatal shooting case involving a gendarme in Guadeloupe.Premièrement, que s'est-il passé sur le terrain ?First, what happened on the ground?Imaginez un peu la scène : une patrouille intervient dans la commune du Moule, face à un homme de 65 ans qui refuse obstinément de lâcher son couteau.Just imagine the scene: a patrol intervenes in the town of Le Moule, facing a 65-year-old man who stubbornly refuses to let go of his knife.Le Taser échoue et là, un agent tire à balle réelle, le tuant sur le coup.The Taser fails and then, an officer fires a live round, killing him instantly.Résultat immédiat, le gendarme est mis en examen pour violence mortelle avec interdiction absolue de porter une arme.Immediate result, the gendarme is placed under investigation for fatal violence with an absolute ban on carrying a weapon.Mais si on voit l'usage de la force comme une échelle très stricte, on est en droit de se demander comment expliquer que passer d'une arme non létale directement à une arme à feu était la seule et unique issue possible face à un couteau.But if we see the use of force as a very strict scale, we are entitled to wonder how to explain that going from a non-lethal weapon directly to a firearm was the one and only possible outcome when faced with a knife.Deuxièmement, pour bien comprendre cette escalade fatale, il faut regarder le profil de la victime.Secondly, to fully understand this fatal escalation, one must look at the victim's profile.On ne parle pas d'un simple délinquant, mais d'un homme avec un très lourd passif psychiatrique et des antécédents de rébellion.We are not talking about a simple delinquent, but a man with a very heavy psychiatric history and a record of rebellion.Sur l'archipel, des collectifs locaux dénoncent des violences policières et qualifient carrément ce décès de meurtre.On the archipelago, local collectives are denouncing police violence and are flatly calling this death a murder.C'est une vraie étincelle dans une poudrière, un drame individuel qui cristallise d'un seul coup des fractures historiques et une profonde défiance envers l'État.It is a real spark in a powder keg, an individual tragedy that suddenly crystallizes historical fractures and a deep mistrust toward the State.

Kansas City police Officer Matt Masters first used a Taser in the early 2000s. He said it worked well for taking people down; it was safe and effective. “At the end of the day, if you have to put your hands on somebody, you got to scuffle with somebody, why risk that?” he said. “You can just shoot them with a Taser.”Masters believed in that until his son Bryce was pulled over by an officer and shocked for more than 20 seconds. The 17-year-old went into cardiac arrest, which doctors later attributed to the Taser. Masters' training had led him to believe something like that could never happen. This week on Reveal, we partner with Lava for Good's podcast Absolute: Taser Incorporated and its host, Nick Berardini, to learn what the company that makes the Taser knew about the dangers of its weapon and didn't say.

Byrna Technologies, who's weapons look like handguns but shoot powerful chemical irritants rather than lethal bullets are legal in 50 states, but California has blocked sales of Byrna's ammunition and launchers. The complaint compares Byrna's products to Tasers and other stun guns which both received Second Amendment protections by the Supreme Court. FOX's Tonya J. Powers speaks with Bryan Gantz, President and CEO of Byrna Technologies, maker of non-lethal self-defense weaponry, who explains what his products do and why they filed this lawsuit.

His book, The Fastest 4 Seconds, is a true account backed by eyewitness testimony, investigators, news articles, and even dashboard camera footage from the Dallas County Sheriff's Office in Selma, Alabama. It covers the events leading up to and following a shooting that unfolded in just four seconds after a one-minute struggle with a suspect.

Jay “Packy” Dempsey always wanted to work in law enforcement. The only way to get in the door and start his law enforcement career was to volunteer. Working as a pulp mill helper at the local paper plant, Packy volunteered as a reserve deputy for the sheriff's department on his nights off. Packy saw that the sheriff's department did not have a K-9 unit, so after volunteering for two years, Packy bought a German shepherd puppy, named her Princess, and trained her to become a narcotics K-9. Eventually, Packy was hired by the sheriff's department to work at the jail. Over time, he worked his way to the narcotics division. However, as his career soared, his first marriage failed. His wife at the time had not signed up for the life of a police officer's wife. After getting his personal life back on track, Packy almost lost it all on a muggy December day when he answered a loitering complaint at former Craig Air Force Base on the outskirts of Selma. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. While trying to arrest one of the loitering teens for crack cocaine possession, the teen, overpowered Packy, taking his gun and pointing it at Packy's head. Using a special remote, Packy released Princess from the back of his patrol vehicle, and she came to his rescue. Princess distracted Walker long enough for Packy to draw his backup weapon and apply deadly force. The reporting and aftermath that ensued pitted the community against Packy as civil rights activists labeled Packy a murderer. Fortunately, he had the entire incident on film due to a dash camera that he bought and installed from his own personal budget. Eventually cleared him of any wrong doing, Packy returned to police work and eventually had to leave the Sheriff's Officer to have a successful career at the Orange Beach Police Department with Princess. The narrative ends in Orange Beach, Alabama where Princess retired and eventually succumbed to cancer at age 14. In the United States, police fatally shoot more than 1,100 people annually, with 1,270 people killed by police in 2024 alone, the highest number in a decade.

On May 14, 2024, the FBI's Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program released Officers Killed and Assaulted in the Line of Duty, 2023 Special Report and data from the Law Enforcement Employee Counts on the FBI's Crime Data Explorer. Officers Killed and Assaulted in the Line of Duty, 2023 Special Report, provides preliminary counts of law enforcement officers killed and assaulted in 2023, as well as an in-depth analysis of law enforcement officers who were killed or assaulted from 2014 through 2023, based on the data voluntarily provided by law enforcement agencies to the FBI's UCR Program. Fatal Police Shooting Caught On A Camera He Bought. The study of the data reveals, from 2021 to 2023, more officers were feloniously killed (194) than in any other consecutive three-year period in the past 20 years (73 officers in 2021, 61 officers in 2022, and 60 officers in 2023). Information about offenders of officer felonious killings in 2023 show there were 57 offenders, 54 were male, more than half were white, 8 were reported as having a mental illness, and there were 32 violent prior arrests/offenses from an unknown number of offenders. You can find the show on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, X (formerly Twitter), and LinkedIn, as well as read companion articles and updates on Medium, Blogspot, YouTube, and even IMDB. From 2014 through 2023, the South region had the most line-of-duty deaths yearly compared to other regions. There was a 38% decrease in line-of-duty deaths in the region in 2023 (20 deaths) compared to 2022 (32 deaths). Last year marked the lowest number of line-of-duty deaths in the South since 2015 (19 deaths). While there has been a slow decline of officers feloniously killed in the line of duty over the past three years, a study of the data shows the rate of officers assaulted has increased each of the past three years. Agencies reported 79,091 officers were assaulted in 2023, marking the highest officer assault rate in the past 10 years. Most officer assaults occurred when responding to simple assaults against a non-officer (6,783 incidents), followed by drug/narcotic violations (4,879). The number of officers assaulted and injured by firearms has climbed over the years, reaching a 10-year high in 2023 with approximately 466 officers assaulted and injured by firearms. Fatal Police Shooting Caught On A Camera He Bought. Police shootings are a significant source of trauma that can lead to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other serious mental health consequences for involved officers, witnesses, and families. Law enforcement officers are exposed to an average of 178 critical incidents throughout their careers, compared to the general population's two to three traumatic events. A police shooting is considered a highly severe critical incident that can trigger "post-shooting trauma," a form of PTSD. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. The studies reviewed suggest elevated rates of PTSD among those exposed to firearm violence, with particularly high levels of PTSD found among witnesses of mass shootings and firearm injury survivors. Additionally, these studies indicate that certain factors, such as closer proximity to the incident and closer relationship to the victims, increase one's risk for developing PTSD. Gaps in the current literature are discussed, as well as directions for future study. Firearm violence remains a significant public health concern, and identifying its impacts and potential risk factors such as PTSD will be crucial for interventions aimed at addressing this problem.

Kansas City police Officer Matt Masters first used a Taser in the early 2000s. He said it worked well for taking people down; it was safe and effective. “At the end of the day, if you have to put your hands on somebody, you got to scuffle with somebody, why risk that?” he said. “You can just shoot them with a Taser.”Masters believed in that until his son Bryce was pulled over by an officer and shocked for more than 20 seconds. The 17-year-old went into cardiac arrest, which doctors later attributed to the Taser. Masters' training had led him to believe something like that could never happen. This week on Reveal, we partner with Lava for Good's podcast Absolute: Taser Incorporated and its host, Nick Berardini, to learn what the company that makes the Taser knew about the dangers of its weapon and didn't say.
