    The Risks of Criminal Court
    Mar 25 2026
    The Risks of Criminal Court: What People Don’t Talk About. We clashed on one or two points, but some would be surprised that we agreed on most everything else. For nearly three decades, Iris Eytan built a reputation as one of Colorado’s most formidable criminal defense attorneys. With 28 years in the courtroom, thousands of defendants represented, and countless high-stakes Trials, she stood on the frontlines of a justice system few truly understand. But behind the acquittals and accolades lies a side of the profession that rarely makes headlines, the emotional toll, the systemic flaws, and What People Don’t Talk About when it comes to criminal law. The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. “I gave everything to the work,” Eytan said. “But over time, the work takes something from you too.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. A Career Defined by High-Stakes Justice Eytan’s legal career began after earning her law degree from the University of San Diego School of Law. She quickly stepped into the role of Deputy State Public Defender, where she gained firsthand experience representing individuals often overlooked by the system. Over time, she transitioned into private practice, co-founding her own firm and becoming a leading voice in criminal defense and civil rights litigation. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Her résumé is extensive, recognition from Best Lawyers in America, features in 5280 Magazine, and even the cover of Colorado Super Lawyers Magazine. But for Eytan, the real measure of her career wasn’t awards, it was impact. The Risks of Criminal Court: What People Don’t Talk About. “I’ve represented thousands of people,” she explained. “And every single one of them mattered. These aren’t case numbers, they’re human beings whose lives are on the line.” The Reality Behind Prosecutors, Attorneys, and the System In discussing The Risks of Criminal Court, Eytan didn’t shy away from addressing one of the most controversial topics in the legal world: prosecutorial misconduct. “Most people assume the system is balanced,” she said. “But the reality is, Prosecutors hold immense power, and there’s very little accountability when that power is abused.” The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. Research supports her concern. Studies have shown that misconduct by prosecutors and government officials plays a role in a significant percentage of wrongful convictions. Yet discipline remains rare, a troubling disconnect that continues to raise questions about oversight and ethics within the system. The Risks of Criminal Court: What People Don’t Talk About. “Defense Attorneys are fighting uphill battles,” Eytan added. “When evidence is withheld or misrepresented, it can completely change the outcome of a case. And often, no one is held responsible.” The Case That Changed Everything Eytan’s career reached a turning point with a high-profile case. What began as a vigorous defense effort evolved into something much larger, the exposure of serious prosecutorial misconduct. “We uncovered things that should never happen in a courtroom,” she said. “It wasn’t just about winning a case anymore, it was about exposing a broken system.” Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. The case ultimately led to the dismissal of first-degree murder charges against him. In the aftermath, investigations resulted in the disbarment of a former district attorney and public discipline for others involved. But the victory came at a cost. “That case changed me,” Eytan admitted. “It opened my eyes to how deep the problems go. And honestly, it contributed to my decision to step away from criminal defense.” The Risks of Criminal Court: What People Don’t Talk About. The Hidden Toll: PTSD in the Legal Profession One of the most overlooked aspects of The Risks of Criminal Court is the mental and emotional impact on those working inside it. “I developed PTSD,” Eytan revealed. “And that’s something people don’t expect to hear from a lawyer.” She described years of exposure to traumatic evidence, intense courtroom battles, and the constant pressure of defending lives in jeopardy.

For nearly 15 years, Kelly Rae Robertson worked behind the walls of the Allegheny County Jail, where the line between public safety and personal tragedy was often razor thin.

Eventually, she made the difficult decision to walk away. When Domestic Violence Leads To Murder There was one case that never left her. A young University of Pittsburgh student had an ex-boyfriend with a violent history. He had already been arrested for breaking and entering and had a pending rape case. Despite those red flags, he was released. Not long after, he broke into his ex-girlfriend’s home. This time, it ended in tragedy. He brutally beat her to death. “This wasn’t just another case,” Robertson said. “This was a clear example of what can happen when warning signs are missed and dangerous individuals are released.” When Domestic Violence Leads To Murder: Problems With Bail Reform. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. The case became a defining moment, one that highlighted how when domestic violence leads to murder, the consequences are irreversible.

She lost her father during her freshman year of high school and became the primary caregiver for her mother.

But her path eventually led her deeper into the criminal justice system. Inside the jail, she encountered trauma daily, not only in police reports, but in the people behind them. “Victims, families, police, correctional officers, everyone is impacted,” she said. “And a lot of that trauma goes unseen.” Advocacy, Protection, and a New Direction During her time in the system, Robertson became a strong advocate for victims of domestic violence, helping them file Protection from Abuse orders and navigate the court system. “For many survivors, that moment is about protection, it’s about survival,” she said. But over time, she realized she wanted to do more than guide people through the system. She wanted to help them heal. From the Jail to the Counseling Room Robertson returned to school and earned a second master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling. Today, she is a Licensed Associate Professional Counselor, a Nationally Certified Counselor, and a Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist, with specialized training in EMDR therapy.

    Life After Being a Cop: Recovering from Trauma
    Mar 18 2026
    Life After Being a Cop: Recovering from Trauma. After 30 years of law enforcement, he thought he had retired unscathed. A veteran of the Suffolk County Police Department and the Atlanta Police Department, he spent decades responding to emergencies, witnessing trauma, and putting his life on the line. Yet even after leaving the force, the weight of his experiences lingered. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Mike Morgan is our guest. “I thought I was done with all the trauma,” Mike says. “I thought I got out unscathed. But it all started catching up with me after retirement, especially that call about the 2-year-old child who drowned.” The Podcast is available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. A Life-Altering Call The call that shook Mike the most involved a young child who had drowned. He was able to save the child, but the emotional impact stayed with him. As he explains, “Saving that child was one of the most rewarding things I’ve done, but it also brought back all the other moments in my career that I hadn’t fully processed.” Life After Being a Cop: Recovering from Trauma. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Drowning remains a leading risk for children under 5. According to recent studies: 87% of drowning fatalities occur in home pools or hot tubs, often when children sneak outside unattended. Highest risk group: Children aged 1–4, with backyard pools as the primary location for fatal drownings. Silent danger: Drowning is fast and silent, rarely involving splashing or screaming. Mike emphasizes, “Swimming pools may look safe, but kids can slip away in seconds. Even the most attentive parent can’t always see it happen.” The episode is available across major platforms including their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, with highlights shared across their Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn profiles. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) studied drownings among children age 4 and under in Arizona, California, and Florida, where pools are common. It found nearly 70% of children were not expected to be in the water, and 46% were last seen inside the house. Essential safety measures include four-sided fencing, pool alarms, locked doors, and constant adult supervision. Life After Being a Cop: Recovering from Trauma. Recognizing PTSD Even after retirement, Mike realized he was struggling with symptoms of PTSD. “I was listening to a podcast one day and thought, ‘This is me,’” he says. “I was having everything the experts describe, but I hadn’t acknowledged it yet.” Police officers face a particularly high risk of PTSD due to frequent exposure to traumatic events. Studies estimate prevalence rates up to 20%, roughly double that of the general population. Symptoms often stem from cumulative stress, fatal accidents, officer-involved shootings, and repeated exposure to violence, leading to flashbacks, insomnia, and even suicidal thoughts. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. As Mike explains, “It’s not always one single traumatic event. It’s the buildup over time, the constant stress, the repeated exposure to tragedy. That’s what hits you when you retire and finally have time to think.” Life After Being a Cop: Recovering from Trauma. Key facts from research: Police Officers experience an average of 3.5 traumatic incidents every six months. One in seven officers worldwide suffers from PTSD or depression, with 15–18% meeting diagnostic criteria. Stressors include violent incidents, exposure to death, and organizational pressures. Symptoms and Behavioral Impacts PTSD can affect every aspect of life: Physical: Fatigue, insomnia, chest pain, nausea Emotional & Behavioral: Anxiety, withdrawal, paranoia, rage, increased substance use Job Impact: Poor performance, missed work, strained family relationships “PTSD isn’t just a badge issue,” Mike says. “It follows you home.
