In this episode, a case that proves compassion can change someone’s life! A concerned citizen calls 9-1-1 to report a toddler in a diaper walking around the street by himself. Mannina takes the call for a “welfare check”, and finds not only the toddler outside, but two other small kids inside in the nearby home in filthy conditions, including flies and roaches crawling all over them. She quickly calls Child Protective Services, but after the children’s mother returns, Mannina hears a story that softens her heart and saves a family.

Some neighbors call 9-1-1 saying they’ve witnessed a man dragging a woman down the street by her hair. When Mannina and other officers arrive at the home, they find inside a man and his mother who say the woman deserved it for being “a poor housewife.” Like Mannina, this case will make you angry and hopefully stand up for anyone who you see in an abusive relationship.

Mannina recounts some of her most memorable experiences while patrolling the streets of Indianapols.

In this episode, she highlights three situations about a “cartel crash”; a ride along where the citizen finds herself a part of a SWAT standoff that tragically ends; and a walk out of the government building is trailed by a man and his girlfriend who direct their “F— the police” bombs to Mannina for no apparent reason.

The staff of a local Indianapolis school call police after an 8 year-old boy arrives in class and tells his teacher that his mother is in danger at home. Mannina and other officers head over to the house where they find her inside with a man named “Crazy”.

This case is every woman’s nightmare where a kind gesture turns into abuse and a child is affected for the rest of his life.

Mannina answers questions from listeners about prostitution, legalization of marijuana and one of her most notorious cases where she stands up to a suspect “in the box.” And in Street Stories, Mannina discusses a cold case that she says will never be solved: shots are fired into a car and police never find the victim nor the person responsible.

Mannina is called to the scene of two people stabbed in a neighborhood just south of downtown Indianapolis in an area known as Mars Hill.

The injuries are serious enough to send the victims to the hospital. As Mannina begins to get some clarity about what happened, she finds herself begging the neighborhood posse to let the police handle the situation so no one else gets hurts. But a week after the crime, the suspect becomes a victim and Mannina is forced to write this off as a case of street justice.  #RealCrimes #RealCases #RealTalk

Armed with a name of the potential suspect, Mannina visits the victim’s mother and finds herself in a room with about 50 family members who are not only grieving the death of their loved one, but are determined to get street justice. The mother says to Mannina, “I will give you 24 hours to solve this crime,” or the family will take matters into their own hands. As the clock ticks, Mannina puts out an APB and gets the US Marshals involved in the search to find this man who is more than just armed and dangerous.
