It's the end of the month and the year of 2019. We will recap some of the more important stories which will have an impact on the world of law enforcement.

Drug addiction is a serious problem in the US. Most of us are aware of the recent opioid epidemic which is ravaging rural America. However, we can not and should not forget about alcoholism and its drastic effects upon individuals and families. This episode will feature fellow podcaster, Cynthia Wright.

It's the end of another month, therefore, we will take a look at some of the top stories related to PD's and law enforcement. We cannot dive into every story, however, I believe we can learn something from what has occurred in law enforcement around the country. Armed with this information we can continue the path of making the relationship between police and communities more beneficial.

Police Legitimacy has become a buzz phrase in the last few years. But what exactly does it mean for a police agency to be legitimate?

This episode we will feature a fellow podcaster, Ms. Zykia McCoy. She is a caterer, business owner, poet, and mother. Despite being hit with many obstacles in life she has decided not to let life get her down. She is remaining positive and fighting the good fight. So many times I talk about the negative relations between the police and the public. However, this episode I thought it would be good to change it up and focus on the good and positive that at least one person is trying to spread all year round.
