In this episode we break down the accusations made by Danielle Cortes against deputies Michael Dilks and Joanna Fricke. Cortes claimed the deputies planted drugs on her — a serious allegation that quickly spread and had people ready to grab their pitchforks before anyone bothered to watch the actual footage. Then the bodycam video came out. And body cameras have a funny way of ruining a good story...

In this episode, we break down the growing disconnect between leadership and the rank-and-file. While deputies struggle to get basic training approved, fight for time off, and deal with staffing shortages, Sheriff Eric Flowers appears to be living large on the taxpayers’ dime.

He’s not just driving a patrol car. He’s driving it on your dime. Captain Cliff Labbe has turned his agency vehicle into a personal luxury—concert runs, airport trips, school drop-offs, and private off-duty appearances—all fueled by a taxpayer-funded gas card. The badge doesn’t come with a personal chauffeur, but somewhere along the line, the line between public service and personal privilege disa...

I call out YOUR Indian River County Sheriff Eric Flowers for hypocrisy — using his office to facilitate an affair and stalking his ex-wife all while hiding behind the badge. Flowers preaches accountability for his deputies but refuses to accept it himself. When will the public stand up and demand he be held fully accountable for his actions? He owes many people and appology and it starts with the...
