Carly Sullivan-Roland on Journalists as Legislators
This week on Mayhem, I talk to my friend and host of the hot new podcast about the twenty year murder spree in Chicago that has been grossly under-reported. We talk about the DNA backlog and the role of journalism in spurring legislation. You can subscribe to her podcast here: https://instabio.cc/truecrime

Brooklyn to Baghdad with Chris Strom
Michele talks with NYPD Intelligence and Counter-Terrorism expert Chris Strom about his transfer from the Narcotics division to a very different type of work. They talk about the work the NYPD does on the ground in foreign nations to prevent terrorism in New York (and, consequentially, other cities.) Specifically we get into applying organized crime fighting tactics as applied to insurgents in Iraq.

MERCHANT OF DEATH - WORLD'S MOST NOTORIOUS WEAPONS TRAFFICKER COULD BE TRADED FOR WNBA STAR BRITTNEY GRINER IN RUSSIAN PRISON SWAP
Tom Pasquarello, our guest this week, led the DEA operation that resulted in the extradition and arrest of Russian national, and highly active weapons dealer Victor Bout. The word in Washington is that he is going to be traded in a prisoner exchange for Brittney Griner and Ex-Marine Paul Whelan. In light of the recent push for stricter gun laws, it seems a bit backwards to free a man who could flood the global weapons markets once again. We dive into the story on the week's Mayhem with Michele McPhee.
