    Bathtub Homicide/Suicide, Inside Fast & Furious, Home Invasion Foot Pursuit Jan 31, 2024

    From NYPD Homicide to the ATF, Peter Forcelli had an amazing career. His stories from NYPD are just as crazy as you think they would be! While at the ATF he bravely called out the corruption he was seeing during Operation Fast and Furious. This of course did not go over well with the politicians and bureaucrats at the highest level of government. For all the gritty details grab Peter's book The Deadly Path: How Operation Fast & Furious and Bad Lawyers Armed Mexican Cartels. Being released March 5, 2024. Pre-order now!

    https://www.amazon.com/Deadly-Path-Operation-Furious-Lawyers/dp/B0CCMMQKCQ

    Pete Forcelli was a highly respected federal agent in New York City, where he made an impact on violent crime by successfully targeting some of the city’s most violent street gangs by using federal racketeering and continuing criminal enterprise statutes in conjunction with federal prosecutors. In early 2007, he was promoted to a supervisory position in Phoenix and quickly discovered that federal prosecutors were not charging criminals for violating federal firearms laws, even in instances where they knew guns were being trafficked to ultra-violent drug cartels and then used in crimes that were shocking to the conscience.

    Parolee Attacks While Dressed As Cop, Attempted Assination On Mv Stop, Cops On Being Filmed Aug 09, 2023

    In this episode I chat with retired Officer Eric Hofstein. Eric started his career with the Contra Costa Sheriff's Department and finished with the BART Transit Police (San Francisco). Eric has some great stories from his career from both agencies. His book, What Doesn't Kill You: One Cop's Perspective on Homelessness, Mental Illness, and Addiction, is availible for purchase with the link below.

    https://a.co/d/ctzfVIj

    When Eric Hofstein changed his career path, he didn’t expect to meet hundreds of lost souls, many of whom were desperate to be found. Here he shares what he learned about how the people he met became homeless, what kept them on the streets, and how to help them improve their lives. He learned what true harm reduction is, and how to manage his expectations and not center himself in his outreach work. Now retired, Eric is compelled to give voice to those whose stories inspired him so that others can be inspired in turn.

    Shotgun Shootout And Cold Cases Dec 07, 2022

    As a disciplined street cop and Commander of the Homicide unit in a medium size county not far from Chicago, Illinois, Tim Corbett is a criminal’s worst fear – he’s the man who never gives up. Corbett’s keen sense for bullshit, yet likable personality earns him the kind of information others can’t put their hands on. And his dedication to making things right for victims and their families is worthy of a crime novel. Corbett and his teams have investigated over 1,000 deaths and put more than 400 convicted killers behind bars where they belong. He is responsible for 32 cold cases solved – some of the most-difficult in the country. 47 years in law enforcement. 17 &1/2 as Homicide Commander and an expert in the pursuit of Cold Cases.

    Robbery Shootout, Stalker Kills Ex, Keto Lifestyle for Healing Nov 02, 2022

    Retired Boynton Beach Officer Eric Reynolds shares some intense stories from his career including the shooting that changed his life. Eric was shot while engaging an armed robbery suspect and was ultimately able to win the gunfight. The encounter had a profound impact on his life sparking a need to battle PTSD. Officers involved in these traumatic events often try to cope by drinking too much alcohol along with other destructive behaviors. Eric knew that he had to make a change and he found his answer in the Keto lifestyle. Both his physical and emotional health were vastly improved by embracing this new way of living. He now runs https://ketofiveo.com/ where he helps other officers (and civilians) struggling with these health issues.
