This one is a hard one for me because I hate to judge an entire department by three or four of their officers, who when I have met some of their rookies in passing are good people. They really try. A whole department or their Command Staff behaving like children is understandable. Just a few officers, is a little harder.

Justice for Brittany McGlone
For several years, I have produced a podcast titled Catch my Killer (www.catchmykiller.com). When I first began this journey, I knew I didn’t want to copy the same format of other true crime podcasters. I wanted to focus on the victim. However, I realized that to get the real story about a missing person or homicide victim; I needed to speak to someone who knew the real story. I also wanted to focus on victims who have never received much attention from social media, newspapers, television journalists or even law enforcement. Since deciding on this journey, I have never looked back and will continue bringing attention to missing people and unsolved homicide cases.

If it looks too good to be true – it probably is - Part II
No matter how much information is available online, how many warnings are posted by numerous organizations on countless sites, scammers keep working. They never quit. Why? Because there are uninformed people out still. Those who mindlessly believe the generous advertised promises and consider themselves lucky to come across such sweet deal. Those who don’t do diligent search and don’t exercise some critical thinking. Those become victims of scammers.
