About this listen

We discuss the use of deadly (not fatal) force by Lt. Douglas Itjen on the sword-wielding Connor Darpino, in his Wayne, NJ home in February 2025. Darpino threatened to stab officers with two antique swords while he was overdrugged on Xanax. CW | TW: This episode discusses a purported mental health crisis, rules of deadly (and other use of force directives), and weapons, specifically swords and guns. Profanity likely included.
