Rescuing 911 Episode 006

Lt. Randy Sutton (Ret.) emphasizes the need for a renewed belief in the mission of law enforcement. Officers are heroes on a “quest” to hunt evil. It’s imperative that police officers continue to embrace that quest. It’s also time for increased public awareness and institutional action to ensure that the law enforcement remains strong and responsive.

Rescuing 911 Episode 003

In an off-the-cuff question during our interview with Lt. Randy Sutton (Ret.), we stumbled upon one of his favorite topics: the importance of the Field Training Officer and how the role makes a critical difference in the quality of new police officers. Tune in for this extra that you won’t find in the book Rescuing 911: The Fight for America’s Safety.

Randy also digs into the absurdity of the phrase “Defund the Police.” Even though it isn’t being said as much the action is still happening.

Rescuing 911 Episode 004

Lt. Randy Sutton (Ret.) details the media shift and trust erosion we have experienced in the United States. Segments of the media have become agenda-driven and less credible, especially in coverage of policing. “Hands up, don’t shoot” is just one example of misinformation that reshaped how the public views police.

The “Ferguson Effect” created a pullback in policing. Law enforcement in some regions have become more reluctant to be proactive due to the fear of mistakes or controversial encounters destroying careers.

Rescuing 911 Episode 002

Lt. Randy Sutton (Ret.) explains that the War on Cops is more than violence against officers. It's ideological, political, and internal and leaves police feeling undermined by their own administrations and political leadership. Even due process for officers has been eroded—leading to firings and life-altering consequences even before investigations conclude.
