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.

Uniformed gardaí are being issued with Taser guns as part of a six-month trial.It has long been a point of pride in Ireland that the police force are not armed unlike their European counterparts. And while these guns fire electric shocks and not bullets, this is change in how the gardaí police the streets.So does this move bring closer the day when the Garda will be an armed force? How will it change the way the gardaí interact with the public? And why now?Irish Times crime and security editor Conor Lally explains.Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan.

Frontline uniformed gardaí could be using Taser stun guns almost immediately under a proposal being brought to Government by Minister for Justice Jim O'Callaghan. The stun guns could be used in policing on the streets of Dublin, Waterford and Kilkenny over the Christmas period, if approved by Cabinet today.
A new pilot programme is launching this week in which 100 gardai will be equipped with taser stun guns. This new proposal from Justice Minister O'Callaghan will argue that currently frontline gardaí have “limited tactical options” in potentially violent encounters. So, will this be supported by members of an Garda Síochána? All to discuss with Tara McManus, Assistant General Secretary of the Garda Representative Association.

Es ist leider aus dem Podcast nicht wegzudenken: das Sächsische Polizeigesetz. Denn erneut plant ein sächsischer Innenminister massive Grundrechteingriffe durch die Verschärfung des Polizeirechts. Von intelligenter Videoüberwachung bis zum Einsatz von KI; vom Taser bis zur Bodycam in Wohnungen ließt sich der Entwurf wie das Wünsch-Dir-Was der Polizeigewerkschaften und konservativer Innenminister. Wir reden in der aktuellen Folge des Podcast darüber, warum Sachsen lieber auf dem Boden des Grundgesetzes bleiben sollte als sich gedanklich China anzunähern.
En 2001, on n'a pas eu droit à une odyssée de l'espace mais à la mue de MTV. En effet, le Musical de MTV est de moins en moins visible face à la montée de la télé-réalité sur son antenne. Mais bon, il reste encore de la zikmu comme dans la très populaire émission Total Request Live qui réunit l'après-midi deux millions de téléspectateurs pour regarder les clips les plus demandés par téléphone, et déjà, par internet.Mais ce 2 avril 2001, son animateur Carson Daly, va vivre quelques moments de solitude. En effet vers 15h27, au lieu d'un bon clip pop, l'écran vire au noir, et boom, apparaît Johnny Knoxville, l'un des piliers de Jackass, l'émission de cascades absurdes lancée quelques mois plus tôt. Et que voit-on, cette bourrique de Knoxville se faire électrocuter avec un Taser de 50.000 volts. Il tombe dans les pommes durant quelques secondes interminables, sans avertissement préalable, rien. Le clip enchaîne sur Steve-O, un autre sociétaire de l'émission qui avale un poisson rouge vivant, avant de le recracher. Le poisson vit toujours, ok, mais qu'est-ce que c'est que ce truc de dingues ? Et ben, les créateurs de Jackass ont glissé ces extraits dans la rotation de TRL pour booster l'audience de leur émission en soirée, sans prévenir la régie MTV, pensant que ça passerait dans le flux. Panique immédiate à la maison-mère de MTV, les plaintes affluent, 400 appels en deux minutes au standard, dont beaucoup de parents furieux. Le CSA américain, reçoit, lui, douze signalements en cinq minutes, un record pour un après-midi. Carson Daly, rouge vif, apparaît à l'antenne : "Euh… c'était Jackass. On revient après la pub." Une pub pour des céréales pour les mômes, la totale. Pendant ce temps, le big boss de MTV Networks reçoit un coup de fil de celui de Nickelodeon qui partage son signal sur le câble : "Vos tarés polluent mon réseau familial !" Le VJ et la régie improvisent : ils ajoutent un bandeau géant disant "Ne faites pas ça chez vous", mais c'est trop tard pour les scènes déjà passées comme celle du gars se faisant mordre par un alligator ou celui poursuivi par un taureau en string. L'audience explose à 4,2 millions de téléspectateurs, un record pour TRL, mais de très gros annonceurs retirent leurs campagnes, et un sénateur menace d'une enquête fédérale.En réunion d'urgence, MTV hésite à tout stopper. Knoxville et l'équipe menacent de claquer la porte si on censure. Jackass survit, mais avec des avertissements obligatoires. Ironie du sort, cette diffusion sauvage booste l'émission (+40 % d'audience les jours suivants), il y aura même un film au cinéma, puis d'autres. Cette journée marque le pic du "chaos créatif" de MTV : un pari risqué où on a frôlé la catastrophe mais qui a immortalisé Jackass comme un phénomène de la contre-culture, aujourd'hui bien dépassé par toutes les gamelles qu'on regarde sur Youtube. Pendant ce temps, cette année-là, y avait la chanson de la B.O. de Moulin Rouge qui passait sur MTV.

Während Karim Adeyemi Boulevard-Schlagzeilen macht, wartet auf seinen Club, Borussia Dortmund, sportlich eine ziemlich harte Prüfung. Tobi und Jens diskutieren, wer bei BVB gegen VfB mehr Erfolgsdruck hat. Stuttgart oder die Borussia? Außerdem gibts den ausführlichen Ausblick auf den 11. Spieltag: Was ist von Wolfsburg mit neuem Trainer gegen Bayer Leverkusen zu erwarten? Versetzt der Hamburger SV Sandro Wagner und dem zuletzt gebeutelten FC Augsburg den nächsten Tiefschlag? Hat Freiburg auch nur den Hauch einer Chance bei den Bayern, die ja zuletzt gegen Union zum ersten Mal in dieser Saison Punkte abgegeben haben? Und wie ist die Ausgangslage vor St. Paulis Aufeinandertreffen mit dem 1. FC Union Berlin? Droht St. Pauli die achte Niederlage in Folge? Außerdem werfen wir einen Blick auf Ole Werners Wiedersehen als Trainer von RB Leipzig mit seinem Ex-Club Werder Bremen. Und wir schauen auf die wiedererstarkten Gladbacher vor deren Gastspiel in Heidenheim und auf Mainz 05, das weiterhin mit dem Rücken zur Wand steht.

Fatal Police Shooting Caught On A Camera He Bought. He had responded to a complaint in a high crime area and got into an altercation with a suspect. During the altercation the suspect was able to take his pistol. The suspect then stood over him and pointed the pistol at him. He was able to utilize his bail out device. And his K-9 Princes then exited the unit and engaged the suspect. In a powerful episode now streaming on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most every major Podcast platform. The suspect struck K-9 Princes in the head causing her to have a fractured skull. K-9 Princes never stopped the fight and was able to allow him to retrieve his back up weapon. He then fired numerous shots and neutralized the threat. Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. The attack and incident was captured on a dashcam that the Officer had purchased from his own money. That video is what eventually cleared him of wrongdoing. Look for supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Retired Investigator and Sergeant Jay “Packy” Dempsey is our guest, he is a 25-year veteran of law enforcement and a 6-year Military Policeman in the Alabama Army National Guard. Over the course of his career, he served as a dual-purpose K-9 officer for more than 22 years, specializing in narcotics, criminal, and marine theft investigations. Rising through the ranks, he became a SWAT team commander and dedicated much of his life to protecting his community. Fatal Police Shooting Caught On A Camera He Bought. Dempsey's work has taken him into some of the toughest investigations, including murders, rapes, bank robberies, and stolen vehicles. With his cadaver dogs, he helped recover multiple bodies and located more than 80 stolen vessels and marine-related equipment. His expertise also extended into instructionserving as an FBI and NRA-certified firearms instructor, as well as an ASP, Mace, Taser, and NNDDA K-9 instructor. His outstanding service earned him recognition as a five-time Officer of the Year and recipient of the National Award for Bravery in the Line of Fire. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. But beyond the accolades, Dempsey's story is one of survival, faith, and redemption. 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. The book not only documents the incident and the investigation but also shines a light on the hidden battle that followed, undiagnosed PTSD, addictions, and the near collapse of everything he held dear. Through it all, Dempsey testifies to the undeniable hand of God working miracles in his life. Today, he shares his experiences with law enforcement academies and Christian men's groups, teaching the hard truth. Fatal Police Shooting Caught On A Camera He Bought. 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. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. 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. He eventually left the Dallas County Alabama Sheriff's Office due to extreme pressure and joined the Orange Beach, Alabama Police Department, where he continued his career and eventually retired from.

Die deutsche Nationalmannschaft brauchte für noch mehr Durchschlagskraft keinen Schlagring. Dafür hat allein schon der rechte Fuß von Joshua Kimmich gereicht. Das W in WM steht übrigens für Woltemade. Ob der wohl weiß, dass er mit seiner Frisur dem Rudi Völler von 1990 immer ähnlicher wird? Und dazu noch das Retro-Trikot, das an die WM 1994 in den USA erinnern soll. Damit wäre also geklärt, dass das DFB-Team kommenden Sommer im Viertelfinale ausscheiden wird. Yordan Letchkov gefällt das. Wir lassen in dieser Folge nichts aus. Nicht mal Usbekistan, Kasachstan und Elektroimpulsgeräte. Zack, diese Episode sitzt!

Today we chat with the great Mike Wagers, Chief Customer Officer of Axon, to talk about the history of the global leader in public safety technology…the every growing company known as Axon. Mike walks us through the company's history, from its roots in 1993, to now becoming the standard in law enforcement technology. In 1993, Founder Rick Smith, had a vision to reduce gun violence and prevent crimes through technology to honor the murders of two of his high school football teammates. Like all great stories, there was early struggle, and resiliency was financially tested before the energy weapon, TASER, was introduced to the world. Mike gives us a unique sneak peek of what's on the horizon with the new tech and mission expansion to wellness, AI tech and community partnerships that will save lives and solve crimes. This message will tell this story of how a tragedy turned into a global phenomenon in ever evolving tech to subdue suspects, enhance accountability and boldly go where no man has gone before to make the world, the first responder world, a better and safer place.
Pod Crashing episode 398 with Nick Berardini host of the podcast Absolute Taser Incorporated… America loves the story of a hungry entrepreneur with a dream. But how far is too far, and what forces shape and warp their best intentions? Journalists and documentarian Nick Berardini reports the story of Axon Enterprises and its founders Rick and Tom Smith, hyper-aggressive entrepreneur siblings who tap into the financial opportunity of creating an American paramilitary police state. Rick Smith's willingness to disregard grave safety and public policy issues nearly destroys his relationship with his brother and alienates countless colleagues. Yet, he has become a multi-millionaire many times over - even as more than 1,000 U.S. citizens have been killed by police officers using the company's Tasers.Drawn from key interviews, whistleblowers, and substantial archival materials,Absolute: Taser Incorporated investigates the fraught relationship between the Smith brothers and reveals how their choices ultimately betray the police, the public, and even each other.EPISODES AVAILABLE HERE:Https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-absolute-275471765/

Artificial intelligence is changing how many people work. In several Twin Cities area police departments, it's taking on some of the paperwork that comes with law enforcement by helping write police reports. Axon, the company behind Taser, has an AI tool that helps officers write reports using body camera footage. The tool is called Draft One. As KSTP first reported, three departments in the metro are using it. But some prosecutors and civil rights advocates have raised concerns. Spokespeople for Bloomington and Brooklyn Park police said a group of officers within their departments are piloting the tool. MPR News host Nina Moini spoke with Lieutenant Nate Tennessen from the Eagan Police Department, which has been using Draft One since June.
We speak to the founder and CEO of Axon Enterprise, maker of the Taser, about the tech's future. And the future includes drones armed with Tasers.Also in this edition of Tech Life: why an underwater glider is circumnavigating the globe, gathering data on the oceans. And find out why the quantum computing revolution could arrive sooner than expected.Presenter: Chris Vallance Producer: Tom Quinn(Image: A close-up photo of a Taser being aimed.

Pod Crashing episode 398 with Nick Berardini host of the podcast Absolute Taser Incorporated… America loves the story of a hungry entrepreneur with a dream. But how far is too far, and what forces shape and warp their best intentions? Journalists and documentarian Nick Berardini reports the story of Axon Enterprises and its founders Rick and Tom Smith, hyper-aggressive entrepreneur siblings who tap into the financial opportunity of creating an American paramilitary police state. Rick Smith's willingness to disregard grave safety and public policy issues nearly destroys his relationship with his brother and alienates countless colleagues. Yet, he has become a multi-millionaire many times over - even as more than 1,000 U.S. citizens have been killed by police officers using the company's Tasers.Drawn from key interviews, whistleblowers, and substantial archival materials,Absolute: Taser Incorporated investigates the fraught relationship between the Smith brothers and reveals how their choices ultimately betray the police, the public, and even each other.EPISODES AVAILABLE HERE:Https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-absolute-275471765/ Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.
A shaky mic check turns into a sharp look at what really drives good policing: judgment, humility, and the ability to read the room when the room is a crowded café, a liquor store aisle, or a street with nowhere safe to shoot. We start where many patrol shifts do—small problems that get big fast. A trespass call reveals clear spectrum cues that most people miss. We break down why patience, logic, and the “why” behind instructions defuse more than volume ever will, and how Crisis Intervention Training helps when “I didn't do anything wrong” is literal, not defiant.From there, the conversation moves to culture. We talk frankly about ego—what happens in your brain when your authority is challenged—and why an evidence-based ego class should be standard in every academy. Then comes the line-crossing off-duty deputy who confronts teens and the citizens who stepped in: when does bystander help make things safer, and when does it create risk? We also dismantle the “sovereign citizen traveler” myth with courtroom reality: wins are procedural, not magical.Two bodycams anchor the stakes. In one, a suspected concealed gun leads to a shootout in a liquor store. Tactics matter: avoid the fatal funnel, use distance and angles, reload before radio. In another, a naked subject with a knife pleads to be shot; Tasers fail; one officer backpedals into a curb. We unpack role discipline, backdrop awareness, and why at least one officer must hold lethal cover when less-lethal comes out. It's uncomfortable because it's honest—and that's where better training starts.We round it out with practical policy: consent searches when co-occupants disagree, privacy expectations behind closed or locked doors, and freezing a scene to write a warrant instead of forcing questionable consent. We also make a case for a national registry that follows officer histories and open-source training that any department can use.If you're into real tactics, real law, and real talk—minus the slogans—hit play. Then tell us: where should departments focus first—ego training, de-escalation, or tactical role discipline?

Former police officer and Pig Latin Eric Tansey author reacts to shocking bodycam footage of a Michigan lawnmower chase where a fleeing suspect pulls a gun, is tased, and accidentally shoots himself. Get expert breakdown of tactics, use of force, and split-second decisions. Jackson, Michigan — On September 19, 2024, Deputy Robert Henderson arrived at a home in Leoni Township to arrest 41-year-old James Mitchell Kerr on a felony probation violation and two misdemeanor warrants. Kerr was riding a lawnmower when the deputy approached and ordered him to stop. Instead of complying, Kerr accelerated the mower until he reached a ditch — and then the situation took a dangerous turn. Kerr retrieved a handgun hidden on the mower, prompting Deputy Henderson to deploy his Taser. In the chaos, Kerr discharged the firearm and shot himself in the hand. Backup officers quickly arrived, took Kerr into custody, and transported him to the hospital before transferring him to jail. He now faces multiple charges, including assault with intent to murder and resisting arrest, with the case advancing to trial in Jackson County Circuit Court.
On today's episode we debated a call by new Garda Commissioner Justin Kelly to issue ALL GARDAí with taser guns. A lot of people love the idea, but some, who don't trust the force, are wary.
The new Garda Commissioner Justin Kelly is considering whether frontline Gardaí should carry taser guns. Tasers are already used by specialist units in the force, but could arming the frontline curb violence in the State? To discuss further we heard from Christy Galligan, Retired Garda Sergeant and Local Peace Commissioner in Donegal and Dr Pat Leahy, Former Garda Assistant Commissioner for Dublin.

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.

When officers respond to a call that seems routine — like a mental health check — they often have no idea how quickly that encounter could escalate. For Officer Alessandra Winterbauer of the Lincoln (Nebraska) Police Department, what began as a calm conversation with a confused subject turned into a life-or-death confrontation. Her ability to remain composed and rely on recent virtual reality training helped avoid a deadly outcome and led to her recognition with Axon's 2025 Jack Cover Save of the Year Award. Officer Winterbauer and a colleague were dispatched to check on a man experiencing a possible mental health crisis. After a calm 20-minute conversation, the man abruptly asked, “If I come at you guys with a knife, will you shoot me?” Moments later, he sprinted toward officers. Winterbauer deployed her TASER 10 from over 30 feet away — just minutes after completing VR-based TASER training. Her successful response neutralized the threat without serious injury, demonstrating the real-world value of immersive, high-frequency training.

Florida Woman Sentenced to 366 Days in Husbands Hospital Room Killing Amid Emotional Testimony A 78-year-old woman who shot and killed her terminally ill husband in his hospital bed last year was sentenced Friday to just over a year in prison, followed by 12 years of probation, in a case that has raised complex questions about mercy, mental health, and public safety. Ellen Gilland pleaded no contest to manslaughter with a firearm and three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon in the January 2023 shooting death of her 77-year-old husband, Jerry Gilland, at Advent Health Hospital. She was sentenced to 366 days in state prison, receiving credit for 42 days already served. Circuit Judge Kathryn Weston also ordered her to write apology letters to the nurse and first responders she pointed a firearm at after the shooting. “I held the gun behind his ear. I pulled it away and asked him if he was sure,” Gilland said in court. “He raised his hand, placed it on my arm, and pushed the gun to his head. There was a loud bang, and he was gone.” Her account suggested a pact between the couple, though prosecutors argued that Gilland's actions endangered numerous others. After shooting her husband, she barricaded herself in the hospital room for hours, prompting a standoff with police. Bodycam footage showed officers pleading with her to surrender while she allegedly pointed her revolver at them. At one point, she reportedly fired a second shot into the ceiling as police deployed a flashbang and Taser. Though the Taser was ineffective, officers eventually subdued Gilland without further injury. Inside her hospital room, police found a box containing 45 live rounds. An additional 100 rounds were discovered in her vehicle. A nurse who was present during the incident, Hector Aponte, testified that he was so traumatized he left his job and still suffers from nightmares. “I didn't feel safe anymore,” he told the court. That testimony weighed heavily on Judge Weston's decision. “I can't begin to understand how difficult it would have been for you to actually pull the trigger to assist your husband in ending his own life,” she said. “I do believe that's what you did. But I also believe your actions put others at serious risk.” Originally charged with first-degree murder, Gilland eventually reached a plea deal in December. Her defense team argued that she was driven by a mental health crisis triggered by her husband's deteriorating condition. A psychiatrist testified that her depressive episode had passed and that she no longer posed a danger. Two nieces pledged to care for Gilland upon her release, promising a firearm-free environment and transportation to court. Despite the defense's plea for leniency, prosecutors emphasized the broader threat Gilland posed by bringing and discharging a firearm inside a full hospital. “This case is troubling,” the prosecution said. “She loved her husband. But she made a decision that jeopardized lives.” Outside court, Gilland's niece Bo Timme expressed surprise at the outcome. “I really thought I'd be bringing her home today,” she told WESH. “I'm shocked. I'm very worried about her. But I'm told it's fair and actually a good outcome.” Gilland is expected to serve the remainder of her sentence at a Florida correctional facility before beginning probation.

Absolute, Season 1: Taser Incorporated is at once a tale as old as time - a true believer learns the hard way that the costs of lofty ambition and hubris just might outweigh even the most optimistic upside - and a thoroughly modern story of technology overtaking the very people it is meant to serve. In this case: the ubiquitous electric gun carried by cops everywhere and inspiring comedic shenanigans in movies like The Hangover. Host and documentarian Nick Berardini has been obsessed with this story for his entire adult life. With Absolute, Season 1: Taser Incorporated, he left no stone unturned. Taser, Inc., now known as Axon, the 800-pound gorilla in the paramilitary police equipment industry, is led by its charismatic CEO and co-founder, Rick Smith. Fueled by a self-described religious dedication, Smith’s Star Trek obsession, and an ambitious vision of a world without gun violence, Rick leads Taser, Inc. to be the key tech supplier to virtually every police force in America.
