    Police Sergeant Shot Multiple Times, Left Paralyzed And Leg Amputated.
    Apr 23 2025
    Police Sergeant Shot Multiple Times, Left Paralyzed And Leg Amputated. On November 11, 2016, Boise Police Sergeant Kevin Holtry’s life changed forever. What began as a tactical search for a dangerous fugitive in a quiet Boise neighborhood turned into a brutal ambush that would leave Holtry shot multiple times, paralyzed from the waist down, and ultimately result in the amputation of his left leg. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on our website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms. The suspect, a violent parolee wanted for multiple shootings and a carjacking, had been released early from prison. After eluding officers in a stolen vehicle, he was believed to be hiding somewhere in a residential area. Sergeant Holtry, a member of the Boise Police Department’s Special Operations Unit, joined the search along with fellow Sergeant Chris Davis. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Medium and most all social media platforms “He knew the risk,” said a department spokesperson. “But Kevin always put others before himself. That’s the kind of officer he was.” As the team cleared backyards, Holtry took the lead position, a role both he and Davis understood carried the highest danger. As they entered one yard, the fugitive, armed and crouched behind trash receptacles, opened fire. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Newsbreak and Blogspot. Police Sergeant Shot Multiple Times, Left Paralyzed And Leg Amputated. Holtry was shot five times in the attack. One bullet instantly paralyzed him. Davis was also shot but survived. Officers returned fire, killing the suspect on scene. The team’s K9 partner, Jardo, sustained fatal injuries in the firefight. “I was hit immediately,” Holtry later recalled in a podcast interview. “I couldn’t move. I knew it was bad. I couldn’t feel anything.” The attack marked a turning point in Holtry’s life. After more than 16 surgeries, he remained paralyzed and lost his left leg. Despite the devastating injuries, Holtry continued to serve the Boise Police Department for several more years, becoming a symbol of resilience, service, and courage. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms. In recognition of his heroism and continued dedication, Holtry was awarded the Medal of Honor, one of the department’s highest honors. His journey has since become a beacon of inspiration in the law enforcement community and beyond. “Kevin exemplifies what it means to serve with honor,” said a Boise PD official. “He never gave up, not in the fight, not during recovery, and not when it came to helping others heal.” Holtry’s story is featured on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast available as a free podcast on their website, available on Apple, Spotify, and most major platforms. In his episode, he shares raw details about the ambush, the intense physical and emotional recovery, and how he found purpose againthis time, through mentoring, sports, and public speaking. Police Sergeant Shot Multiple Times, Left Paralyzed And Leg Amputated. Outside of uniform, Holtry discovered a new way to find that same adrenaline rush through adaptive athletics. With support from the Challenged Athletes Foundation (CAF), he competed in the 2019 San Diego Triathlon Challenge and participated in Nordic skiing, sledge hockey, and other sports that brought him joy and healing. The interview is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast website, also available on platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major podcast outlets. “Sports saved me,” Holtry said. “Being active again gave me back a part of myself I thought was lost.” Holtry, who served three years in the U.S. Army and spent more than 20 years in law enforcement, mostly with Boise Police, had once left a career path in education to become an officer. Though he had a degree in English literature and a potential future in the classroom, he chose the streets instead.

His story has been shared widely on Facebook, Instagram, X (formerly Twitter), LinkedIn, and in local and national news.

    One of The Deputies Was Murdered, It's Still Open and Unsolved.
    Apr 20 2025
    One of The Deputies Was Murdered, It's Still Open and Unsolved. Maybe You Can Help? Nearly two decades have passed, but the haunting memory of one tragic night still lingers deeply within California’s law enforcement community. One of the deputies from the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office was murdered in the line of duty, and to this day, the case remains unsolved. The Sheriff's Department, along with dedicated detectives and the broader public safety network, continue to seek justice for Deputy Jeffrey Mitchell, whose life was taken far too soon. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Medium and most all social media platforms “It’s not just a case. It’s a human life. A husband, a father, a son. And it’s still open,” said Dr. Michael Goold, a retired Chief of Police and advocate for emotional resilience in public safety. “We owe it to him and his family to keep pressing forward.” The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on our website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms A Tragic Night in Sacramento County On the early morning of Friday, October 27, 2006, Deputy Mitchell was patrolling a rural area. Around 3:30 a.m., he radioed dispatch to report he was stopping a white Chevrolet van. Minutes later, when dispatch tried to check back, there was silence. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Newsbreak and Blogspot. By the time responding units arrived at the scene, they found Deputy Mitchell shot in the head, with his own service weapon. Evidence showed he fought desperately for his life before the fatal blow. The Sheriff's Department and other law enforcement agencies across California launched an immediate and expansive search involving hundreds of officers, but the person responsible has never been found. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms One of The Deputies Was Murdered, It's Still Open and Unsolved. Maybe You Can Help? “There was always a question, was it murder or suicide? But looking at the evidence, the struggle, the scene, it’s clear this was a violent homicide,” said Dr. Goold, who has discussed the case in the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast available for free on their website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other platforms. Remembering Deputy Mitchell Deputy Jeffrey Mitchell had served with the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department for nine years. He left behind a devoted wife and a six-year-old son. His murder not only shook his department but also left a permanent scar on the community he swore to protect. The interview is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast website, also available on platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major podcast outlets. “Every year, every day, we still think about Jeff,” one colleague posted on Facebook. Tributes continue to pour in on platforms like Instagram, LinkedIn, and X (formerly Twitter), keeping his memory alive and reminding the public that justice has yet to be served. The Emotional Toll and the Role of Intelligence Dr. Goold, who spent 23 years in law enforcement, now works to improve resilience and mental health among first responders. He often speaks about Emotional Intelligence (EI), a critical skill that enhances performance and decision-making under stress. Check out the show on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms “High emotional intelligence is not just helpful, it's essential,” he explains. “When a deputy is alone on a dark road in a high-stakes situation, their ability to regulate emotion and think clearly can mean the difference between life and death.” EI encompasses five key components: self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills. In high-stress roles like policing, firefighting, or emergency response, being able to read the emotions of others and manage your own is a superpower. “EI helps officers understand what’s really happening in emotionally charged scenarios,” Dr. Goold said. “It allows for better decision-making, fosters teamwork, and builds public trust, which is essential, especially when asking for help on cases like Deputy Mitchell’s.” For more insights, the free episode of the “Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast”, is available on their website for free in addition to Apple Podcasts and Spotify, as well as through other podcast platforms. The Podcast Conversation, One of The Deputies Was Murdered, It's Still Open and Unsolved. Maybe You Can Help?

    Murder of Police Brother Frustrated by The Court
    Apr 16 2025
    Murder of Police Brother, Frustrated by The Court. The murder of Rainier Police Chief Ralph Painter in 2011 shook the quiet Oregon town of Rainier to its core and for nearly eight years, the pursuit of justice added insult to tragedy for his grieving family. Alan Painter, Ralph’s brother, speaks out, expressing deep frustration of the court system and sharing his experience through various platforms, including a powerful free podcast episode, news interviews, and the pages of a new book that dives deep into a justice process he believes failed his family. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on our website, Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms “The justice system didn’t just let us down, it dragged us through hell,” Alan said during an interview. What should have been a straightforward case turned into nearly a decade of pain.” Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms Chief Ralph Painter was fatally shot on January 5, 2011, while responding to a call about an attempted car theft. The suspect, a 21-year-old killer, managed to disarm and kill the Chief with his own weapon during a confrontation outside a local stereo shop. The senseless murder not only devastated a town but exposed glaring flaws in the mental health and criminal justice systems. For years, the case was stalled by questions surrounding the killer’s mental fitness. Despite initially facing aggravated murder charges, his erratic behavior, including refusing to cooperate with his lawyers and stabbing himself in the head, led to a back-and-forth between jail and a state mental hospital. The court eventually ruled him competent to stand trial in 2018, after years of forced medication and evaluation. Murder of Police Brother, Frustrated by The Court. Look for supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium, Newsbreak and Blogspot. In 2019, the killer finally pleaded guilty to the murder and received a life sentence with the possibility of parole after 30 years. For the Painter family, it was a bittersweet conclusion. “Our family was held hostage by this broken system,” Alan said. “We waited eight years for justice. That’s not justice, it’s torture.” To share the full story and spotlight the failures they endured, Alan Painter teamed up with journalist and author Rosemary Reynolds to publish the book, Trapped In The System: Bringing The Killer of Rainier Police Chief Ralph Painter To Justice. The book, available on Amazon, is a gripping true crime account that pulls no punches. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms According to Reynolds, “This story is more than just a tragedy, it’s a case study in how bureaucracy and inefficiency can victimize families again and again.” In the book, Reynolds takes readers behind the scenes of the investigation and legal battles that followed. She explores the intersection of mental illness, drugs, a poorly managed state hospital, and an overwhelmed court system, a toxic mix that delayed justice and deepened the family's trauma. Social media users have flocked to platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter) to express support for the Painter family and outrage over the legal delays. Murder of Police Brother, Frustrated by The Court. The interview is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast website, also available on platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major podcast outlets. A user on X posted: “Unbelievable that it took 8 years to convict the murderer of a Police Chief. Thank you Alan Painter and @RosemaryReynolds for finally bringing this to light. #JusticeForRalph #TrappedInTheSystem” The book also honors the memory of Ralph Painter beyond his uniform. It reflects on his legacy as a father, husband, grandfather, and dedicated public servant. He was beloved by his community, and his passing left a deep void. In 2011, Oregon honored him by dedicating an 18-mile stretch of Highway 30 as the Ralph Painter Memorial Highway. “We can replace a Chief of Police, but we’ll never replace Ralph,” said longtime friend Larry Gates. In the courtroom on the day of the sentencing, the pain was palpable. Ralph's wife, children, and mother spoke directly to the killer. “You took my son... I feel you killed him in cold blood,” said Kathy Painter, Ralph’s mother, addressing the killer. “No family should wait eight years to have justice for their loved one.” Through tears and resilience, the Painter family has chosen to remember Ralph not by how he died, but by how he lived.
