Summary
Parkland, Florida. One of the deadliest school shootings in American history. Chief Mike Hawkins and I sat down with Zack Scott and Richard Sessions to discuss the tragedy at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. This episode is about capturing the truth of what happened. Beyond headlines, hindsight, and sound bites. We talk candidly about chaotic scenes, communication breakdowns, leadership accountability, and the lasting mental toll these incidents take on responders. Most importantly, we focus on what law enforcement must learn and apply moving forward in training, preparedness, and unified response. A few takeaways: ➡️ Communication failures change outcomes.➡️ The SRO role is complex — and critical.➡️ Mental health support after critical incidents isn’t optional.➡️ Training must be proactive, not reactive.➡️ Unified response matters.➡️ Leadership accountability matters even more.➡️ Lessons learned only matter if we actually apply them. If you care about officer preparedness, leadership, and telling the real story behind critical incidents, this episode is worth your time.
