    Vineland K9 Sgt. Louis Platania: Stabbing Survival, Dog's Medal & 16-Year "Black Cloud" Cop Saga
    2026/02/01
    🎥 Episode 146
    Unleash the unbreakable bond in retired Vineland City PD Sgt. Louis Platania's 16-year "shit magnet" ride (2008-2024)—proactive patrols in south Jersey's gang-plagued 67-sq-mile hotspot (67K pop, between Philly & AC) turning into K9 heroics when his partner saves him from a brutal 2015 stabbing amid a 911 call gone deadly. From poverty-stricken childhood with a prescription-pill-addicted dad (stealing pads for oxys/percs) to legal vindication after "villain" smears, Louis details the 2024 DC medal honor (9th dog in US history via Animals in War & Peace) and heartbreaking cancer farewell, closing a "Cinderella" chapter. A raw testament to resilience, family anchors, and why "if you're not looking for action, it's there."

  • DEA Vet Richard Oakley: 30-Year Battle with Alcoholism & Cop Suicide Stigma

    DEA Vet Richard Oakley: 30-Year Battle with Alcoholism & Cop Suicide Stigma
    2026/01/25
    🎥 Episode 145

    Step into the raw, resilient world of retired DEA Special Agent Richard T. Oakley (1967-1996), whose badge spanned New Brunswick PD patrols, Union County narcotics probes, and DEA's gritty 1970s trenches—from basic agent class at D.C.'s 1405 I Street to undercover ops that tested his soul. Haunted by his father's WWII trauma-fueled death at 30 (when Richard was 13) and a family legacy of drinkers, he confronts the bottle's grip on cops: "I broke my promise—I'd die first." From losing a partner to suicide to advocating mandatory mental health at academies, Richard shares healing through storytelling, the firehouse vs. patrol isolation gap, and advice for rookies—learn, share, overcome. A vital wake-up for LE families, vets, and advocates battling the badge's invisible scars.
