Summary
Pardon the audio issues this week, the show was interrupted with a major power failure that could easily have been caused by a potential zombie invasion in progress. But we tried to patch it all back together. We leave in the incident to show we are humans just like all of our listeners and because chaos can be more fun to listen too.
In this episode of the podcast, we discuss various topics related to law enforcement, including the use of bullet-resistant vests, retrieving personal belongings after a dispute, eligibility for becoming a police officer with a felony conviction, and the complexities of divorce and property disputes. We also share personal experiences with police pursuits, signs of kidnapping and sex trafficking, and the legality of aftermarket vehicle modifications. Additionally, they address the legality of driving topless in Michigan and police protocol in murder cases, concluding with a discussion on the legal implications of opening someone else’s mail.
