On January 9th 2024, Brain Sizemore lost his son Lucas to suicide. Lucas had graduated the academy that May and was an officer with the City of Atlanta Police Department. Since his son's passing Brian has been on a mission to bring this tough conversation of suicide in law enforcement  to the public. For every officer that dies at the hands of a suspect, 2-3 take their own lives. 

Brain and I are joined on this episode by Jared Murphey, the Acting SAC of Homeland Security for Detroit Michigan. Lucas actually interned  for Jared at HSI  when he was younger, before he became an Atlanta officer.

We discuss the unanswered questions of this tragic event that brought these two men together. And just as importantly we highlight the work both are doing to bring awareness to this dynamic in the first responder community. 

The  " Bring Them Home" 1000 mile Charity Relay Run starts in Atlanta and finishes in Detroit.
