  • Dawn Barkman (Retired Pima County Sheriff Sergeant)

    First and foremost I have to thank Dawn for coming back to Tucson, from Northern AZ, and agreeing to be on the show. She just retired February 13, but left for higher ground and cooler temps.

    Second, I'll thank Lillian George (Choir Practice Alumni) and Current PCSO Lt. Jeremy Olsen for harassing Dawn to be on the show. Dawn called me out of the blue and said that Lillian and Jeremy were calling and texting her to be on the show. I apologized and insisted I hadn't put them up to it, but I'm so glad they did.

    Dawn's story is very unique, almost incredible, and her courage is unmatched. Tune in and it'll quickly become apparent what I'm talking about. Her fortitude in working her way into public service, and her drive for "justice for the victims" is inspiring.

    Give her a warm welcome and enjoy the show...

  • Jim McShea (Retired Tucson Police Captain)

    Jim spent 38 years in law enforcement before retiring, during this time he rose to the rank of Captain. I worked for Jim a few times over the years, Undercover and the Citywide Force Unit, and I can tell you he's a very down-to-earth man.

    We made it through a good portion of his career, but there's no way to cover 38 years in one interview...he'll be back!

    Turn it up and enjoy the ride...

    I met Becky in Midtown while I was in the bicycle unit. She was a hard working CSO who had all the apartment complexes and rental properties under her thumb. She taught them how to be better property managers, how to make their properties safer for the residents, and the Crime Free Multi-Housing program helped fast track evictions on serious bad actors in the division.

    She taught this program around the US, sharing the knowledge she had learned in training and her hands on experience. Her career wasn't without some trials along the way, but she navigated them with grace.

    She also contributed to the department's Honor Guard for many years. Finally, she authored a chapter in the book "Empowering Women with Words," available on Amazon.com. Fifteen women came together, writing their own chapter in this book that went on to become a best seller!

Listened to your interview with Kurt Dabb and your "Ed story". That happened a lot of years ago and my recollection of events aren't quite the same as yours but hey, doesn't keep me from enjoying retirement. I'm grateful that you shared some kind recollections of my brother Patrick. Best regards.
