Ideally, with a government of the people, for the people and by the people, we should all be held to the same standards of behavior, oath and accountability, regardless of title or standing.
This past week has yet again shown Americans that our adherence to that philosophy is really not based upon the rule of law but upon our double standard of how we may personally view the felonious behavior (or person) in question.
As police officers and private citizens alike, we should all be quite concerned about this new level of selective justice that’s further eroding faith in the entire criminal justice system.

Talk to most cops and they’ll tell of the ancient superstition that a full moon will be a guarantee for an active shift. Although we’re not completely sure of that urban legend, we definitely know of the lunar impact on the tides.

So check it out, to see what these tides are washing in.

A rite of passage for most cops is the harsh realization of the finality and omnipresence of death. And although the dead can no longer speak with us, there are some professionals whose work is solely dedicated to giving them the chance to make one final statement. So on this episode, we're joined by our good friend, Deputy Coroner Jason Crose.
We discuss the role of the coroner and medical examiner, how they work with us in law enforcement, and how these folks regularly deal with an event that the rest of us spend our entire lives looking to avoid.
Jason also provides us with some unique short stories that illustrate the naivety of both civilians and cops that were confronted with the eternal slumber.Email: [email protected]

The title of this episode is an obvious homage to our favorite television series, the iconic Seinfeld.
We feel that it’s a show that can truly help you survive law enforcement, with its self-depreciating humor, satirical take on current events and the idea that everyone should consider themselves fair game to comedic teasing.
However, we do actually talk about things on this show- including Jerry Seinfeld’s recent Duke University commencement address, National Police Week and a unique online business prospect discovered by Scott’s son.Email: [email protected]

In the last two decades, the United States has seen a rapid expansion of legislation regarding firearms ownership and possession under the second amendment, particularly at the state level.
For almost everyone engaged in this never ending debate, this has created a hodgepodge of often misquoted terms, statistics and misinformation regarding American’s rights to bear arms.
To help provide some clarity in all of this, we’re again joined by adjunct law professor, attorney and retired associate deputy director of the ATF, Tom Chittum. Tom is also the Senior VP of Forensic Services for SoundThinking.
In his typical scholarly and smooth fashion, Tom provides us with some of the history, pertinent case law and perhaps some better terminology regarding this matter.

With the recent mass migration from urban centers in the United States, there are many politicians using this as an opportunity to herald the recent drop in violent crime and homicides in cities across America.
Unfortunately, the unaddressed crime and anti-police sentiment that caused some of this urban flight and the subsequent "improved" crime statistics, doesn’t mean that this level of lawlessness has just disappeared.
On this episode, we are joined by Craig Floyd, a founder and the CEO of Citizens Behind the Badge to discuss some the factors impacting the rise in violent crimes in suburban and rural areas throughout the U.S.

To put it simply, this episode is a discussion of yet another typically tragic and deadly event for the city of Chicago, involving its police, citizens, political leadership and the mainstream media.
The good people of Chicago should take heed and reject the standard political response to these types of incidents, much like the one condiment they universally disdain on their beloved hotdogs.Email: [email protected]

When discussing intelligence gathering and crime analysis with the average street cop, you will likely get a variety of impressions, not only in its purpose but also in its overall effectiveness.
To help clear the air on some of this, we’re joined by an experienced Crime Analyst, Liz Buccola, to discuss some aspects of this work and how it’s becoming more of an effective tool in solving crime at the street level.
And despite being a self-described nerd and introvert, you’ll find that Liz is a lot of fun and adapts well to the show’s style.Email: [email protected]

On today’s episode, we get together to discuss the now infamous acorn-triggered use of force incident by a former Florida Deputy Sheriff.

On this episode, we are again joined by Attorney Bob Scales to discuss some of the situations surrounding the status of the U.S. Department of Justice consent decrees in the United States. It's a follow-up to Episode 167: A Non-Consensual Decree, that expands upon our coverage of how the City of Phoenix is reconsidering the implementation of the federal consent decree process.
Bob's extensive experience with this topic provides some insight on how the politicization of consent decrees by the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division has undermined a once collaborative and effective aspect of police reform.Email: [email protected]

As we close out the first month of 2024, we take the time to compare the effectiveness of our often short-lived, new year resolution zealotry versus the long-term plan of practicing effective and sustainable daily habits, in an attempt to achieve a better life.
Scott provides us with some data points for our analysis by sharing the status of his personal resolutions and how they may have helped him to reconsider a more measured approach toward emotional and physical self-improvement.

Scott & Shaun review the results of a 2023 Gallup Poll that appears to reflect the public’s overall waning faith in the ethics, honesty and integrity of select professions in the United States.
As humble public servants, they also offer their thoughts on possible reasons behind these declines, their thoughts on how well police officers faired compared to other government entities and their hopes for some other professions to be added to future polling.
