THE UVALDE SHOOTING : A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS
In this podcast, Katherine analyzes the extensive report from the Department of Justice on the Uvalde school shooting incident in Texas, released a few weeks after the incident. She breaks down the facts, failures, and the lack of proper response failing to neutralize the active shooter, resulting in 19 children and 2 adults killed, over an hour response time, and a failure in leadership and protocol. Katherine also discusses the importance of active shooter training being crucial for law enforcement and stresses the need for coordinating across multiple agencies in times of crisis. Recommendations for the future are suggested in hopes of faster, more effective responses in an attempt to prevent such incidents and minimize casualties.

Silence Allows Violence
Reflection on the Buffalo Grocery Store Shooting
S4E47
In this episode, Katherine and Sarah discuss the aftermath of the racially-motivated Buffalo Grocery Store Shooting that claimed ten lives, reflecting on the sense of responsibility felt by emergency responders. The hosts reveal a specific incident concerning a 911 dispatcher, who was fired for incompetently handling a call during the shooting incident. The dispatcher, following eight years of employment, was reported to have yelled at and hung up on a store assistant manager for being too quiet on the phone, potentially due to the manager's fear of drawing the active shooter's attention.
911 Dispatcher Brandon Hall’s episode mentioned in the podcast is here

ANATOMY OF TERROR
The Oslo, Norway attack 2011
Part 1
This episode of 'Stop The Killing' investigates the devastating 2011 Norway attacks, the deadliest mass shooting ever reported. We discuss the comprehensive planning involved, involving both a car bomb near the executive government quarters that killed 8 people and injured 209 in Oslo, followed by an active shooting on a youth camp on an island nearby that resulted in the killing of 69 people, mostly teenagers. The perpetrator, motivated by extremist right-wing beliefs, was able to execute his plan with chilling precision due to extensive pre-meditation and deceptive tactics. The horrific events and their significant aftermath put into perspective the unexpected challenges faced by law enforcement in such chaotic scenarios and highlight the importance of emergency preparedness.

FROM MASS SHOOTING TO MASS DECEPTION
The Case of Alex Jones and the Sandy Hook Families
The podcast episode delves into the continuation of the legal battle between the Sandy Hook families and conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who spread false theories that the horrific Sandy Hook school shooting was a hoax. Despite being sued and ordered to pay a massive $1.5 billion judgment by the court, Jones has avoided this payment using bankruptcy claims and continues to generate significant wealth through his media company. The Sandy Hook families have since reduced their demand to $85 million, but Jones still refuses to pay, all while continuing to earn substantially from his conspiracy theory-based venture. The episode explores the manipulation and harm caused by Jones' actions and the distressing reality of these families who have been relentlessly harassed and lied about for a decade.

RAGE, GUNS AND TRAGEDY
Unraveling the Complexity of Gun Violence: The Case of a Louisville Bank Shooting
In this episode of Stop the Killing, we discuss a horrific case of a shooting that occurred in a Louisville, Kentucky bank. The shooter, a 25-year-old bank employee struggling with depression, shot five coworkers and a freshly graduated police officer before being killed. What sets this case apart is the shooter's clear objection to US gun laws and his intention to demonstrate how easy it was for someone with mental health issues to purchase an assault-style weapon. Highlighting the case's shocking and uniquely confounding details, we contemplate the difficulty of identifying potential shooters and emphasize the need for continued awareness and vigilance.

TWISTED FAMILY SECRETS
The Groundbreaking Oxford School Shooting Case: Parental Role Reconsidered
BONUS EPISODE
This episode with Katherine Schweit on the Stop the Killing podcast re-examines the Oxford High School shooting case in Michigan. Three years after the incident involving a 15-year-old boy who killed four classmates, the case remains significant due to the charges faced by the shooter's parents for involuntary manslaughter, a first in the United States. Easily remembered for the parents failing to take responsibility and optimal care in firearm management, the case asks challenging questions about parental responsibility. The trial of the mother has concluded with guilty verdicts for all charges, resulting in potential imprisonment for 60 years. The parents' lack of transparency and alleged aiding of their son made them appear as indirectly involved parties. The father’s trial will be the next event to watch out for and is anticipated to proceed with a different defensive strategy. With the prosecution's strategy already been public knowledge, their defense must work on something alternative yet convincing. Beyond the specifics of the case, the episode delves into evident shifts in perspectives regarding parental negligence and culpability in such incidents, suggesting that prosecutors and district attorneys might now look more critically at higher charges for parents and guardians in similar future situations.

In this episode of 'Stop the Killing', Sarah and Katherine interview Terra Newell, a survivor of “Dirty John” Meehan. Terra recounts her experiences with her abusive stepfather John Meehan, who tried to kill her in a parking garage. Despite the traumatic experiences, Terra shares her story to inform other possible victims of similar predators. She shares insights into how John used manipulation and control to isolate her mother from their family. Terra eventually un-alived John Meehan in self-defense during his attempt on her life. The episode digs deep into the psyche of such grifters and explores how the abuse cycle can be identified and broken.
