When we (as an industry) fail we must not look away, but examine so we can learn from "our" collective mistakes.  This stings at best and disgraces at worst.  When so many of us are shedding our literal blood, sweat, and tears in the service of others and to elevate the badge, others would sully it.

In this episode, ret. Capt. Bill Fraass (from Ep. 186 where he teaches us about principle-based leadership and the blunderous Sheriff of San Mateo County) details the developing investigations surrounding NYPD Chief Jeff Maddrey.   It's not just the headlines, but a concerning history documented in investigations and findings.

Listen in and share out, so we can take ownership of fixing our industry through focused work, demanding accountability, and truly learning from mistakes.  As, if we don't learn from history, we are surely doomed to repeat it.
