The Spark!

Pete GAGLIARDI believed every crime gun has a story - if we just take the time to listen. When orders came down to destroy them, he saw more than steel being scrapped - he saw vital clues being silenced and justice slipping away. He couldn’t let that happen.This short video tells the beginning of the origin story of NIBIN - and the leadership lesson behind it: that great ideas don’t change the world - passionate champions do.Pete followed his conviction, and that fire helped sparked a national program - giving crime guns (and their evidence left behind) a voice, delivering “justice to victims, resolution to families, and peace to our communities.” This is a public episode.

Why NIBIN Never Forgets

Earlier this week, Pete posted an article on the RF Factor entitled, “NIBIN never forgets: So what?” Today, listen to him describe what prompted him to write that post. He talks about the Hazel Love unsolved murder case from Jefferson County, Alabama that was solved through NIBIN nearly six years after that heinous crime was committed after all leads went cold. He talks about the importance of bringing resolution to victim’s families and offers the Love family as an example. His passion for this fighting violent crime is palpable as you listen to him describe lessons learned from the Love case, while at the same time being strident about how NIBIN continues to be a critical tool for solving and combating crime, bringing justice to victims and suspects, resolution to families, and peace to the communities affected.
