The crazy homicide call I'll never forget, plus a little bit about me. Join my first-ever podcast and listen to a harrowing story with a humorous undertone that goes along perfectly with being a Trooper in Appalachia. Pull up a chair!
Please bear with me on the unpolished edges (and my loud Golden-doodle Trooper) of this first episode, as I'm figuring it out as I go!

Introduction to Into The Gray, with DK Hall.

Welcome to a place where current and retired law enforcement and first responders can kick off their boots and listen to stories, get my take on law enforcement and the world today, and give suggestions on future episodes and topics. I am a retired Kentucky State Police Master Trooper with 24 1/2 years of experience working as a road Trooper, Accident Reconstructionist, Defensive Tactics and ASP Instructor, and Dignitary Protection for two Governors. I retired with no intention of returning to police work, but a chance encounter with the sheriff in my county led me to take a School Resource Officer position in 2023 in an elementary school.  
I also enjoy talking about the world I grew up in as a Gen-Xer born in 1969. I grew up in the '70s and '80s, when the music and movies of those decades set the bar that has not been surpassed since. I have many stories from family vacations and holiday shenanigans that would rival National Lampoon's. I also share a perspective of growing up in the Appalachian mountains of Southeastern KY, where my Pops was a coal miner for 20 years.  I even wrote a fiction book called The Last Mine that featured a character (Dale) modeled after my dad.
Pull up a chair, as I would love for everyone who needs some therapy or just a place to listen and laugh to find their way here.  I am also a die-hard fan of the Steelers, Pirates, and Pens, but I love sports talk in general.
