  • Police In Milwaukee The Violent Crime No One Talks About
    Police In Milwaukee The Violent Crime No One Talks About. Milwaukee, Wisconsin, known affectionately as “Cream City,” “Brew City,” and “The City of Festivals”, holds a cherished place in American culture. Many still associate Milwaukee with the hit sitcom "Laverne & Shirley", set in a 1950s brewery where two spirited friends tackled life’s ups and downs. But beyond the nostalgia and vibrant social scene lies a darker reality, one that rarely makes headlines: the violent crime in Milwaukee no one talks about. This episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social podcast platforms. “People picture the festivals, the lakefront, and maybe a Harley-Davidson roaring down the road,” says Patrick O’Donnell, a retired Milwaukee Police Sergeant turned author and podcaster. “But the violent crime? That doesn’t make the postcards.” The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Indeed, Milwaukee’s crime statistics tell a sobering story. Once ranked among the ten most dangerous large cities in the U.S. in 2001 and 2007, Milwaukee continues to grapple with high rates of homicide, robbery, and aggravated assault. In 2015 alone, 146 people were murdered, a chilling figure that few outside the city are aware of. Police In Milwaukee The Violent Crime No One Talks About. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Patrick O’Donnell knows these streets well. Born to Irish immigrant parents in Chicago, O’Donnell served for 25 years in the Milwaukee Police Department. “I’ve been on the scene of everything you can imagine, from homicides to sexual assaults and robberies,” he shares. “When I was still in field training, I arrested a suspect at gunpoint during a stabbing investigation. That one turned into a death investigation.” Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms Today, O’Donnell channels his experience into his "Cops and Writers" brand. Which includes his "Cops and Writers Podcast", available on Apple, Spotify, and his official website, offers crime writers a behind-the-scenes look at police work. He interviews cops, civilian experts, and authors, blending technical detail with the kind of cop humor that can only come from years on the job. “I want crime writers to get it right,” O’Donnell says. “And I want listeners to understand what really happens behind the badge.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. O’Donnell has authored ten books, with "The Good Collar" his latest and he runs a Facebook group with over 7,500 members. His reach extends across social media, from Facebook to Instagram, where he connects with fans, writers, and fellow officers. “Social media gives us a way to shine a light on the parts of policing that the news doesn’t cover,” he explains. Police In Milwaukee The Violent Crime No One Talks About. You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. The "Cops and Writers Podcast" isn’t just about crime statistics; it’s about the stories behind the numbers. O’Donnell’s guests open up about the pressures and triumphs of life in uniform. “It’s the human side of policing that no one talks about,” O’Donnell says. While Milwaukee is home to major corporations like Harley-Davidson, Rockwell Automation, and Johnson Controls, and boasts a rich cultural and industrial history, violent crime remains a challenge. “Milwaukee is a great city, but like any big city, it has its struggles,” O’Donnell reflects. “That’s the reality behind the social media snapshots.” The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. For those looking to understand Milwaukee beyond its breweries and festivals, O’Donnell’s work provides an unflinching look at the violent crime no one talks about. His books, podcast, and social media channels offer an authentic voice in a conversation often overshadowed by lighter headlines. You can follow Patrick O’Donnell’s journey on his official website, join his Facebook group, or tune in to his podcast "Cops and Writers" or listen to the interview with him as a free Podcast on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or most places where you get your podcasts.

Nineteen terrorists hijacked four commercial airplanes, deliberately crashing two of the planes into the upper floors of the North and South Towers of the World Trade Center complex. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . As Vic Ferrari recounts, "The fires from the impacts were intensified by the planes' burning jet fuel. They weakened the steel support trusses, which attached each of the floors to the buildings' exterior walls." The collapse of the buildings left the site devastated, with thousands of volunteers coming to Ground Zero to help with the rescue, recovery, and clean-up efforts. 9 11 World Trade Center and Fighting Organized Crime.

Born to an Irish father and an Italian mother, Vic grew up with a unique blend of cultures that shaped his no-nonsense personality and love of good times.

  • From Trauma to Success, the Tip of the Spear Book
    From Trauma to Success, the Tip of the Spear Book. “I didn’t come from privilege or a picture-perfect family,” says Magallan in recent interviews shared across Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and various other platforms. “My childhood was marked by violence and abuse. But instead of letting that define me, I let it drive me.” His father was arrested for drug abuse; his mother was verbally abusive. Against the odds, Rodney and his sister became the first in their family to graduate high school, a crucial first step on a long road to personal success. This episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming on for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social podcast platforms. Rodney Magallan’s life story is a powerful testament to resilience, determination, and the ability to transform pain into purpose. “From trauma to success” isn’t just a catchy phrase, it’s the very journey that Magallan has lived. Today, he is a decorated retired U.S. Navy SEAL, former U.S. Marshal, former CIA operative, and multi-award-winning author of the influential book Tip of The Spear, It’s Not What You Think. Rodney enlisted in the US Navy and, through unrelenting hard work, became a SEAL, graduating with BUD/S Class 143 in July 1987. His SEAL career took him from SEAL Team 4 to the elite SEAL Team 6, with deployments across the globe. Eventually, he earned his commission as a naval special warfare officer and rose to the rank of Commander before retiring honorably in 2021. From Trauma to Success, the Tip of the Spear Book. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Throughout his distinguished service, Rodney also held roles as a Deputy U.S. Marshal and an operative for the CIA, where he earned numerous commendations, including the CIA Exceptional Performance Award. His resume includes leading protective operations, developing new maritime capabilities, and instructing the next generation of operatives. Rodney’s book, Tip of The Spear, challenges the notion that elite status is reserved for the privileged few. As he puts it, “The elite aren't different. If you have the work ethic, you can do the same great things.” He emphasizes that becoming part of the tip of the spear, whether in the military, business, or life, requires sacrifice, discipline, and conscious choice. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. In Tip of The Spear, Rodney uses the spear as a metaphor for personal excellence. “It’s not just about the spearhead,” he explains. “Every part of the spear, the shaft, the collar, even the hand wielding it, matters. Success isn’t about one element; it’s about the whole.” The book is more than a memoir; it’s a call to action, a leadership guide, and an invitation for readers to define success on their own terms. From Trauma to Success, the Tip of the Spear Book. The book has garnered widespread recognition, including the 2025 International Impact Book Award, the 2025 PenCraft Book Award, and a Nonfiction Authors Association Bronze Award. Magallan’s voice now reaches millions on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify and many prominent podcast platforms. Be sure to listen to hear how he continues to share his insights on leadership, resilience, and personal security. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. As Rodney states, “Stop looking at doctors, lawyers, CEOs, or Navy SEALs as the only markers of success. We each define our own success. The tip of the spear is a mindset, one that anyone can adopt.” For those seeking inspiration, practical advice, and a roadmap from trauma to success, Tip of The Spear offers all that and more.

  • Police in Virginia, the murder of a Baby
    Police in Virginia, the murder of a Baby. Special Episode. Carrie Wooten doesn’t just tell stories, she lived them. The former Virginia Beach Police Officer opens up about the hidden weight of a career in law enforcement, where behind every badge is not just duty, but deep, often silent trauma. This episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming on for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social podcast platforms. In this free episode of the Law Enforcement Talk episode, available now on their website, plus Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other major podcast platforms, Carrie recounts two of the most harrowing calls she ever faced. One involved the murder of a 14-month-old baby by the child's own mother. The other, an encounter with a domestic terrorist that ended with her disarming and talking down the killer. “You train for scenarios like that,” she says. “But nothing prepares you for looking into the eyes of someone who’s just taken a life, or about to.” The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. Carrie served as a Police Officer in Virginia Beach, Virginia, a city many assume is a sleepy tourist town. It’s anything but. As the largest city in the state, with over 450,000 residents, military bases, and proximity to Norfolk, home of the world’s largest Navy base, Virginia Beach often sees the kind of crime and violence typical of major metropolitan areas. “We weren’t just writing tickets,” Carrie explains. “We were responding to shootings, domestic assaults, and yes, even terrorism.” Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Violence Against the Most Vulnerable. Police in Virginia, the murder of a Baby. Special Episode. The case involving the murdered toddler wasn’t just tragic, it left an enduring scar. “You don’t ever forget something like that,” Carrie says quietly. “I still see that child’s face sometimes.” According to the CDC, homicide is a leading cause of death for children in the United States. In 2020 alone, youth under 18 represented about 8% of all murder victims. Of those, nearly half were killed by someone they knew, often a parent. “These aren't rare cases,” Carrie adds. “We just don't talk about them enough. People need to understand what police walk into on any given day.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. A Call with a Terrorist In another chilling call, Carrie encountered a man who had all the tools to kill. Armed and dangerous, the man was identified as having ties to extremist groups. “He had the training, the weapons, and the intent,” she recalls. “But I talked him down. I didn’t have to shoot him. That moment changed me forever.” While most Americans think of terrorism as something that happens overseas, Carrie warns it's often closer than we think, especially in cities with military infrastructure. “We dealt with these threats more than people realize. And the trauma doesn’t wait until you clock out. It follows you home.” Police in Virginia, the murder of a Baby. Special Episode. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. Behind the Badge: A Life Changed The trauma Carrie experienced didn’t disappear when the calls ended. Like many officers, the cumulative effect of violence, loss, and high-stress decision-making began to erode her mental health. “You don’t realize the damage until your life starts falling apart,” she admits. “Your relationships, your sleep, your identity, it all suffers.” Her journey toward healing led her to entrepreneurship and public speaking. Today, Carrie works to help others in law enforcement and the military recognize and confront the hidden wounds of service. “If I can use my story to prevent just one suicide, one broken marriage, it’s worth it.” You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. The Hidden Crisis in Law Enforcement Carrie’s experience isn’t unique. Data from the FBI’s Law Enforcement Officers Killed and Assaulted (LEOKA) program shows that domestic violence calls are among the most dangerous for police. Between 2011 and 2020, 43 officers were killed while responding to domestic disturbance incidents. In large departments like Virginia Beach, nearly one in three calls involved domestic disturbances, often repetitive, emotionally charged, and unpredictable. "They don’t sound glamorous, but they’re deadly," Carrie says. "And they wear you down, emotionally and physically." Police in Virginia, the murder of a Baby. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. Turning Pain Into Purpose Now retired from active duty, Carrie has become a social media voice and advocate for mental health in policing. Her posts on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn reach thousands who need to hear that they’re not alone. “We need to normalize the conversation around PTSD and trauma,” she says. “Not just in the military, but in policing, too.” Carrie’s story is a stark reminder of what police officers truly face, in Virginia, and across the nation. It’s not just about arrests and traffic stops. It’s about walking into rooms where the worst has already happened. It's about making split-second decisions that follow you for years.

  • Police in Court, when they broke no laws. The reasons why.
    Police in Court, when they broke no laws. The reasons why. In an era where politics often collides with justice, law enforcement officers are increasingly finding themselves in court, prosecuted not for misconduct, but for doing their jobs. Despite well-established legal precedents like Graham v. Connor, some State’s Attorneys and Chief Prosecutors, many of whom are elected political figures, continue to push criminal charges against police officers who have broken no laws. The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. “These prosecutions aren’t always about justice, they’re often about politics,” says Lance LoRusso, a police officer turned attorney, widely known as “The Blue Line Lawyer.” LoRusso has spent over three decades in public safety, first as an EMT and police officer, and now as a nationally recognized advocate and defender of law enforcement officers. This episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming on for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social podcast platforms. The 1989 Supreme Court case Graham v. Connor set the standard for evaluating claims of excessive force by police, focusing on "objective reasonableness." The ruling emphasized that police use of force must be judged from the standpoint of a reasonable officer on the scene, not through the lens of 20/20 hindsight. Yet that critical distinction is often disregarded when officers are put on trial. Police in Court, when they broke no laws. The reasons why. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . “Prosecutors should be guided by facts and the law, not by appearances or political pressure,” LoRusso asserts. He has represented over 175 first responders in critical incidents, including officer-involved shootings. “Too many prosecutions ignore clear-cut evidence that the officer acted lawfully, within department training, and responded appropriately to an immediate threat.” Courts and prosecutors are supposed to weigh key factors like the severity of the offense, whether the suspect posed an immediate threat, and whether they were resisting or fleeing. But when the public cries out and the cameras roll, these facts are often pushed aside. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. And the cost is enormous. “Millions of taxpayer dollars are wasted on these prosecutions,” LoRusso explains. “When officers are acquitted, and many are, they still suffer mentally, financially, and professionally. Their families suffer too.” Police in Court, when they broke no laws. The reasons why. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. According to The Washington Post, police officers who are charged with murder or manslaughter while on duty are only convicted about 50% of the time. That statistic raises a sobering question: Why are so many police being prosecuted in the first place? LoRusso believes he knows the answer. “In at least half of these cases, prosecutors either knew, or should have known, that the officers did nothing wrong. They pursued these charges anyway, for reasons that had more to do with public optics and political ambitions than legal merit.” LoRusso, who holds degrees from Emory, Kennesaw State, and Georgia State University College of Law, is licensed to practice in Georgia, Tennessee, and Arkansas. He collaborates with legal teams across the U.S., defending law enforcement officers in politically motivated prosecutions. In 2021, he was named Attorney of the Year by the National Fraternal Order of Police. You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. Beyond his legal work, LoRusso is also an author. His fiction novels bring to life authentic police stories with characters pulled from the heart of law enforcement. His non-fiction books are resources for officers facing legal scrutiny, and all proceeds go to first responder charities. His books and insights can be found on platforms like Apple, Spotify, and Amazon. Police in Court, when they broke no laws. The reasons why. He also leads training conferences for attorneys and law enforcement professionals. One central theme: how to manage the critical hours after an officer-involved shooting. “What happens in the first few hours can shape the entire case. That’s where most mistakes are made, not by the officer, but by the system that should be protecting them,” says LoRusso. The interview with Lance is promoted on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and other Law Enforcement Talk Radio and Podcast social platforms. The forums by Lance are aimed at educating professionals on best practices in investigating and defending the use of force. The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. LoRusso emphasizes, “Behind every badge is a person who made a split-second decision. They shouldn’t be judged by a news cycle or a political campaign.” In today’s media-driven, politically charged environment, it's easier than ever for prosecutors to bring a police officer to court. But the real challenge, and the true measure of justice lies in asking whether they should. To learn more about Lance LoRusso's work, his books, or to hear directly from him, visit his interview in the podcast version of the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast available for free on their website, also free on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other major platforms.

The Law Enforcement Talk Show goes to radio first. Therefore it is required that I use a clock for the length of segments. You've probably seen on television news interviews that they have a hard break. It's the same with radio. The stations have to be able to program in their commercials, news, weather, traffic reports etc. These are called avails, they are NOT Optional. Every guest knows about and is informed of the length of the segments and that I will interrupt them if needed to go to the break. The interviews are recorded and the guests know that the segments must be in a certain length and it is required and they get to tell their stories to millions of people for free.
