Locked In with Ian Bick

I Was A Connecticut Cop For Two Decades | Charles Grady

Listen Later

Charles Grady grew up in Connecticut and embarked on what many only dream of—a career in law enforcement. With over two decades on the front lines tackling violent gangs, drug traffickers, and homicides across the state, Grady made his mark as a relentless detective and federal task-force agent. After more than 20 years, he transitioned into groundbreaking work in community reintegration and gang violence prevention, founding programs like Hang Time to help formerly incarcerated individuals rebuild their lives.
