The stations have to be able to program in their commercials, news, weather, traffic reports etc. These are called avails, they are NOT Optional. Every guest knows about and is informed of the length of the segments and that I will interrupt them if needed to go to the break. The interviews are recorded and the guests know that the segments must be in a certain length and it is required and they get to tell their stories to millions of people for free.

    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.

In some cases, they were killing people.” Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . 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. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. “I learned early what grief feels like,” she said. “What it means to carry responsibility and pain at the same time.” That experience shaped her perspective, not just on trauma, but on resilience and survival.

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.
