In this powerful episode of the Texas Narcos Podcast, we sit down with John Mattingly, author of 12 Seconds in the Dark, for a raw, firsthand account of the Breonna Taylor raid — told by the officer who was there.

This episode goes beyond headlines and politics to explore:

• What actually happened during the raid

• The chaos, confusion, and split-second decisions

• The personal and professional fallout that followed

• How narrative, media pressure, and public opinion shaped the aftermath

Texas Narcos Podcast is dedicated to unfiltered conversations with law enforcement, investigators, and those who have lived the job, giving voice to stories that are often misunderstood or ignored.

🎙️ Season 2. Episode 2. No scripts. No spin. Just the truth as lived.
