    Doctor in America, pushing addictive pills, The arrest and prosecution. Special Episode. In the ongoing battle against America’s opioid epidemic, few cases have rocked the justice system as hard as the arrest and prosecution of Dr. Stan Xuhui Li, one of the deadliest pill-pushing doctors in U.S. history. At the heart of this historic case was former New York County Assistant District Attorney Charlotte Bismuth, whose relentless pursuit of justice helped bring down a man who had been exploiting the medical profession for profit, at the cost of human lives. This episode of The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast now streaming on for free on their website, in addition to Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major social podcast platforms. “It wasn’t just about illegal prescriptions,” said Bismuth. “This was about a doctor in America, pushing addictive pills for cash, fully aware his patients were dying.” The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. The Start of a Historic Case In 2010, Bismuth, a young assistant district attorney, had just joined the Office of the Special Narcotics Prosecutor (OSNP) in New York City.

Bismuth, alongside a Senior Investigator and another Special Assistant DA, worked tirelessly to trace the damage caused by Li’s clinic. According to investigators, Dr. Li was seeing over 70 patients a day, mostly on Saturdays, and trading prescriptions for cash. He routinely prescribed powerful opioids like oxycodone and anti-anxiety drugs like Xanax with little to no medical evaluation. Even when warned by emergency room doctors and families that his patients were dying, Dr. Li refused to stop.

These were real lives lost to greed.” Doctor in America, pushing addictive pills, the arrest and prosecution. The investigation culminated in Dr. Li’s arrest in November 2011. Over the next three years, Bismuth and her team built a case that would change legal precedent.

    Jun 15 2025
    The Traumas of Police Work and Drowning Deaths, Special Episode. The badge doesn’t always protect the heart. Retired Seminole County Sheriff’s Sergeant Mark DiBona knows that truth all too well. After more than three decades in law enforcement, spanning from Braintree, Massachusetts to the heart of Florida, DiBona's battle wasn’t just with criminals, it was with the lasting traumas of police work, the devastating toll of a baby’s drowning death, and a fight for his own life.

But few hit as close to home as the tragic, preventable death of a young child. The Traumas of Police Work and Drowning Deaths. Drowning: Florida’s Hidden Crisis Florida tragically leads the nation in child drowning deaths. In 2023 alone, 97 children in the state lost their lives to drowning. Residential pools, bathtubs, and even buckets of standing water claim lives year-round, particularly during the spring and summer months.

The Traumas of Police Work and Drowning Deaths. Law enforcement officers are at a significantly higher risk of developing PTSD than the general population. Studies show between 7% and 19% of officers experience symptoms consistent with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. The causes? The trauma is layered and relentless: Regular exposure to gruesome scenes and high-stress situations. Emotional and psychological burdens from the decisions they make. Cumulative trauma over years without real recovery time. Isolation and internal pressure to "stay strong" at all costs. Mark DiBona was no exception. “I developed PTSD, depression, anxiety…and it showed” he revealed, pausing to reflect. “There were times I didn’t want to live anymore. I didn’t think I was worth saving.” You can listen to his stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms.

The macho culture, fear of judgment, and lack of institutional support often silence those who are suffering.

  • Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department.

    Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department.
    Jun 11 2025
    Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. In the gritty streets of California’s Bay Area, former police officer Janelle Perez patrolled neighborhoods ravaged by gang violence, battling not only criminal organizations but also the very department she once proudly served. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. “I came into law enforcement with purpose,” Janelle shared during an interview on The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show which is featured as a free podcast episode available on their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and many podcast platforms. The episode is also promoted across their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other platforms. “But I never imagined that the hardest fight I’d face wouldn’t be with the gangs, but with my own department.” Janelle Perez is a former Bay Area police officer whose career was defined by front-line encounters with violent gangs like the Sureños, Norteños, and Wah Ching, organized groups deeply rooted in California's urban corridors which also grew into the suburbs. In her role, she confronted everything from drug trafficking to gangland turf wars fueled by stolen firearms and fear. But her story doesn’t end with arrests and patrols. Her memoir, The Moral Police, tells a deeper story. It chronicles her unexpected and painful descent from decorated officer to plaintiff in a courtroom battle against the police department that dismissed her. Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Perez was fired after eight months with the Roseville Police Department, she says for an off-duty relationship with a fellow officer during her separation. She took her case to the court, citing gender discrimination and privacy violations. Her battle stretched across seven years and reached the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, where she initially won. But that victory was later overturned. “It wasn’t just a legal fight,” Janelle said. Janelle, a Penn State graduate in Justice Administration and Sociology, became a voice for reform and an advocate for female leadership in law enforcement. In her podcast interviews and media appearances, she says that the justice system often fails its own, especially when gender dynamics and departmental politics collide. Throughout her time in law enforcement, Perez worked in communities where gangs weren’t just a threat, they were a way of life. From the Eddy Rock and Knock Out Posse gangs in San Francisco to major prison gangs like the Mexican Mafia, Nuestra Familia, and Aryan Brotherhood, she navigated a violent landscape that demanded vigilance, intuition, and resilience. “These gangs enforce their own kind of law,” Perez explained. “And when the actual justice system fails from the inside, it becomes hard to tell who you’re really fighting.” Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. Statistics underscore the challenges she faced. By the early 1990s, California had become a hub for gang activity, with thousands of organized groups and hundreds of thousands of members. Urban centers like Oakland, San Jose, and Richmond became battlegrounds where gang-related homicides and turf wars eclipsed many other forms of crime. According to national surveys, gang membership and criminal incidents surged between 1991 and 1993, peaking at over half a million members and hundreds of thousands of gang-related crimes. In these conditions, law enforcement officers walk a razor-thin line. “When you're confronting people who operate by their own rules, you expect your department to have your back,” Janelle said. “But that’s not always the case. And that’s what hurts the most.” The Moral Police doesn’t just delve into the systemic flaws of the police system. It’s a call for accountability, leadership, and reform. Through her writing, radio interviews, and podcast appearances, Janelle Perez shines a light on the importance of transparency in law enforcement—especially when those in power misuse it. You can listen to her stories and interview on our website for free in addition to platforms like Apple Podcasts and Spotify, and other major podcast platforms. Her story resonates across social platforms and professional networks, drawing attention from news outlets and discussion forums alike. The Facebook and Instagram comments are filled with encouragement. LinkedIn readers are engaging with posts about her on workplace equity and integrity. Police and Gangs, Her Battle With The Department and Court. “I wanted to inspire others not to stay silent. Whether you’re in law ...
