  • The Mike Hogan Story

    The Mike Hogan Story
    Nov 5 2024
    43 year old Mike Hogan grew up in Hutchinson Minnesota, served his country in Vietnam after high school, and returned to his home town to serve as a police officer. When he wasn't patrolling or coaching at the high school, he was spending time with his wife and three kids. Mike loved being a cop, loved his country, loved this community, and loved his family. On a bitterly cold Friday night in December, Mike would get dispatched to a shoplifting complaint at the JC Penny store in the local mall. A misdemeanor shoplifting call ended in Mike getting murdered by an ex-con, followed by a series of multi-county crimes including a carjacking, 3 kidnappings, a rape, a high speed pursuit, and a standoff with hostages before Mike's murderer would finally be taken into custody. His murder left his family devastated, an agency in mourning, and this normally quiet, rural community in shock at the loss of this local hero. ​​This episode is sponsored by our friends at Law Enforcement Labor Services, Inc.

    Invisible Wounds Project - Suicide Awareness for First Responders
    Sep 11 2024

    In this Special Edition of the Invisible Wounds Project we talk about Suicide Prevention Within Law Enforcement with the founder and Executive Director of the Invisible Wounds Project, Russ Hanes.

    Russ worked in nearly every aspect of law enforcement and public safety before walking away from his career due to challenges with PTSD and suicidal ideation - affects of cumulative stress from years of service. After recognizing the need for mental health support for first responders in Minnesota and realizing the lack of services that were available, he started the Invisible Wounds Project and continues to serve out of their support center in Forest Lake Minnesota.

    This incredible organization is like no other in the way it supports Minnesota's first responders and their families. An important episode for all MN first responders and their families - also an important episode for supervisors and administrators.

  • The Beryl McLane Story

    The Beryl McLane Story
    Jul 30 2024
    In this small rural North Dakota community of Napoleon, Highway Patrolman Beryl McLane was well known and well liked. You might see him chatting it up at the post office, or downtown in the coffee shop visiting with the locals. He was a man dedicated to service, having served in WWI and then for a handful of police departments in the southern part of the State before becoming a North Dakota Highway Patrolman. In 22 years of law enforcement service, at 5’11” and 230 pounds, Beryl hadn’t been in any incident he couldn’t handle until this late July Friday afternoon. In a split-second Beryl was gone - leaving behind his wife Bernice, adult children Robert and Beverly, and his beloved 3 year old grandson Kenneth. He is North Dakota Highway Patrol's first and only recorded Line of Duty Death since they started in 1935.
