Congressman Burgess Owens has always been an overachiever and a star. 

From growing up in the deep south in the days of Jim Crow to where he is today, Burgess has always given it his all. 

In his youth he was taught by his WWII Veteran father how to not only survive but to excel despite adversity. 

He was one of the first African American athletes to play football at the University of Miami. He also earned his degree in biology and chemistry. 

Burgess played 10 years in the NFL, winning a Superbowl in 1980 with the Oakland Raiders. 

His post-NFL career has been filled with ups and downs, but he never let the thought of future success escape him, and in 2020 he was elected as a US Congressman for the 4th District in Utah. 

In Congress, one of Congressman Owens' key issues is border security and stemming the tide of illegal immigration. He has visited our own Southern Border, and helped to bring awareness of the human tragedy there as well as the massive amounts of drugs that are coming across our border. 

That's where we come in. 

All Things Crime host Jared Bradley was able to travel to Panama with Burgess to see for ourselves where many of the migrants who cross the US border started their journey. This episode gives the context of how we all connected to make that trip! 

All Things Crime is a new, comprehensive video series that will explore every aspect of crime and the ensuing investigation, one video interview at a time. The host, Jared Bradley, is the President of M-Vac Systems, which is a wet-vacuum based forensic DNA collection system, and has experience traveling the world training all levels of law enforcement and crime lab DNA analysts in using the M-Vac to help solve crime. 

Along the way he has met people from all walks of life and experience in investigating crimes, so is putting that knowledge to use in another way by sharing it in these videos. If you are interested in more videos about the M-Vac, DNA and investigations, also check out the M-Vac's channel @https://www.youtube.com/c/MVacSystems...
