The full story is finally here.

Years ago, I encountered Officer Urban Rodriguez’s story from behind the crime scene tape as one of the investigators who responded to the scene.

This time, I got to sit across from Urban and hear the part of the story that evidence could never tell.

The trauma. The recovery. The setbacks. The strength required to keep moving forward when the headlines disappear but the consequences remain.

This is the story America missed.

Officer Urban Rodriguez’s full episode of Bloodstains & Breakthroughs is now available on YouTube and wherever you listen to podcasts.

I’m finally sharing a look into my past as a crime scene investigator. For the first time, I’m revisiting some of the 124 cases I worked on. Due to my CPTSD, I’ve lost about 98% of my memories from that time, so these videos are a “blind reaction” as I rediscover my own work through old photos and reports.

In this first episode, I’m walking through one of my first cases—a deceased elderly man found outside his home. I’ll explain the investigation process, the technical details we look for, and the reality of why we take the photos we do.

Episode 3 of Bloodstains & Breakthroughs is officially out!

This one is honest and vulnerable.

I talk about rebuilding after trauma, learning who you are after survival, and what it really looks like to keep going when no one is watching.

Full episode is live on TikTok and YouTube.

Short clips will be shared here and on Instagram.

Thank you to everyone who continues to support this journey.

The Case That Changed Me Part 2 is not about the scene.

It is about what followed me home.

The case that changed me did not end when the tape came down.

First podcast episode energy: unfiltered, a little messy, and very real.

This podcast isn’t a lecture. It’s me talking to you like a friend. The kind of friend who’s been through it, learned a few things, and isn’t pretending to have it all polished.

We talk about growth, grief, grit, and the stuff people usually skip. And yes, there are bloopers at the end because perfection is overrated and laughter is part of the healing.
