Police Chiefs Social Media Wars, Costing Us Millions? Special Short Episode. What about all those lip sync and dancing police videos? Weren't they supposed to help bolster police - community relations? What good did they do, if any, except to waste time and money? Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against those videos. What Police Departments Should Be Doing Instead. I call out Police Chiefs, Commissioners and Agencies that don't take the same proactive steps to support their officers in the media, social or otherwise. Those that control the narrative win. Mark my words, many Police Chiefs will be losing their jobs over their lack of proactive PR on social media. Not only are they losing huge numbers of good police, they are settling lawsuit cases for millions of dollars every year. Many of these cases could have been ended quickly if departments were more proactive with the media, especially social media.  City and County Governments are settling complaints that aren't true for millions of dollars. And they are having tremendous problems retaining good police. Many Departments are losing the fight in social media.

Florida Deputy Sheriff Shot Twice, Including in the Face. Deputy Troy Anderson pulled over a car one night for an average car stop. Before he could sense any threat the suspect fired a gun twice and shot him in the face and hand. It was a rural area far from help and an off duty deputy, near the area, cleaning the patrol car heard his call for help on the radio. The suspect was later killed in a shootout with a civilian while invading that person's home.  Deputy Anderson had no way of knowing that the driver was a a registered sex offender. And according to investigators was hell bent on violence. "I truly believe he had an evil mindset and his thought process was to kill and destroy innocent people," Dixie County Sheriff Darby Butler said about Miedema at the same event. "Fortunately, he did not succeed in that." Troy tells the horrifying story of the shooting and the wonderful medical professionals that saved his life.   One of the images in podcast cover from WCTV.

Blue Line Bears Police Officers Daughter Started at 14, For Families of Fallen Law Enforcement Officers. Her Amazing Story. She has been harassed and threatened but her mission continues. Meet the incredible Megan O'Grady and hear her story.  When 5 Dallas Police Officers were ambushed and murdered, and 9 were injured she got inspired to do something. Megan O'Grady is our guest. She is the daughter of a Police Officer and she was only 14 years old when those Police Officers were murdered. That is when she got the inspiration to start Blue Line Bears.  Now a College Student, she has been harassed and threatened for her work with Blue Line Bears and for being a family member of a police officer. Blue Line Bears is a nonprofit organization with the goal of helping the children of fallen Law Enforcement officers cope with the devastating loss of a parent. Children of law enforcement officers grow up realizing that their parent’s life is at risk every day they go to work.  Add to that the fact that there is much public ridicule of law enforcement officers, and deaths in the line of duty are sudden, shocking and violent. Blue Line Bears creates custom hand made teddy bear keepsakes and mails them the the families of the fallen. Blue Line Bears uses one of the patches from the department, and collar from one of their uniform shirts. The shirts are cut, sewn and stuffed into a teddy bear.  Additionally, a personalized badge with the officer’s last name and badge number is sewn on the bear’s stomach while the officer’s Department patch is stitched onto the back of the bear.  If the officer had stripes for rank or service, those also adorn the bear as well.  Finally, each bear is given a St. Michael medal and blessed by a priest before being mailed to the family.  All of this at no expense to the family.  Through the use of donations and other contributions, Blue Line Bears purchases all materials, as well as cover the cost of shipping.
