    I Was LAPD Internal Affairs — Here's What Officers Were Hiding | Marlon Marrache

    Marlon Marrache spent 24 years with the LAPD — including time working the division that investigates its own officers. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Marlon pulls back the curtain on what Internal Affairs actually does, how the process really works from complaint to outcome, and why it looks nothing like what you've seen on TV. He gets into the lies, the cover-ups, the code of silence, and what actually happens to officers when misconduct is proven — giving an insider look at one of the most secretive divisions in American law enforcement. _____________________________________________ #LAPD #InternalAffairs #TrueCrime _____________________________________________ Connect with Marlon Marrache: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themarracheshow/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTkpEPUwRpbaMMLb1saX9zA _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 LAPD Internal Affairs — Marlon's Story and the Secrets He's Sharing 02:22 Growing Up as an Immigrant and How It Shaped His Path to the LAPD 07:07 How Sports the Navy and a Late Start Led Him to Law Enforcement 13:01 The LAPD Culture Scandals and Internal Corruption Nobody Talks About 21:49 How Social Media Destroyed the LAPD's Ability to Hide the Truth 23:44 His Early Patrol Years and How the Role of Cops Changed Around Him 34:46 The Trauma Loneliness and Coping Mechanisms That Define Long Careers 40:45 How and Why He Moved Into Internal Affairs — The Decision That Changed Everything 47:40 The Real Reputation of Internal Affairs vs What It's Actually Like Inside 53:41 His First Internal Affairs Case — How Hard It Really Is to Investigate Your Own 01:02:59 The Challenge of Proving False Statements Against Fellow Officers 01:10:52 False Statements Perjury and the Policy Violations That Destroy Careers 01:20:32 Bad Hires Rogue Officers and Who Is Really Responsible for Accountability 01:25:04 What Actually Happens to Corrupt Cops — Resignations Pensions and Consequences 01:30:08 Inside the Psychology and Process of a Real Internal Affairs Investigation 01:34:01 The Most Common Complaints Against LAPD Officers and What the Public Gets Wrong 01:42:28 Did Internal Affairs Destroy His Friendships — The Personal Cost of Doing the Right Thing 01:47:06 The Career Lessons That Only Come From Investigating Your Own Department 02:05:51 Purpose Empathy and What He Really Wants People to Know About Police Work _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

    Steven Dominguez was a correction officer at Rikers Island. Norman Seabrook ran the correction officers' union. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, they sit down face to face for a rare and uncomfortable conversation — one that holds a corrupt guard accountable in front of the man who was supposed to represent him. They debate corruption, power, and the reality of working inside one of America's most controversial jail systems — challenging each other on what's truth and what's misunderstood, and asking whether meaningful reform at Rikers Island is even possible today. _____________________________________________ #RikersIsland #PrisonCorruption #TrueCrime _____________________________________________ Watch my interview wirh Steven Dominguez: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EvupiKuyuw&t=166s _____________________________________________ Watch my interview with Norman Seabrook: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X5Q7tofDnJ8&t=1s _____________________________________________ Connect with Steven Dominguez: https://www.instagram.com/chillstevie/ _____________________________________________ Connect with Norman Seabrook: https://www.instagram.com/normseabrook/ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 Corrupt Rikers Guard vs Honest Union Boss — The Full Story 01:53 The Corruption and Dysfunction Inside Rikers Island Nobody Talks About 04:42 How the System Capitalism and Jail Jobs Create Corrupt Officers 07:02 Why So Many Young Inexperienced Officers End Up Corrupt at Rikers 10:30 Personal Stories and the Family Ties That Pull People Into Jail Work 13:04 The Reality of Corruption at Rikers — What Becomes Normal and Why 16:17 Temptation Greed and the Moment Officers Choose to Cross the Line 18:42 How Leadership Addiction and Culture Among Officers Enables Corruption 22:17 Who Is Really Responsible When Officers Go Bad 24:18 Real Corruption Stories and the Consequences Nobody Prepares You For 27:40 The Mental Health Crisis Inside Rikers and How It Feeds the Cycle 33:40 Second Chances and What Redemption Really Looks Like After Corruption 36:20 The Lessons Learned and How Community Influence Shapes Everything 38:16 The Broken Infrastructure and Safety Crisis Nobody Wants to Address 40:54 The Leadership Decisions That Could Actually Fix Rikers Island 44:00 Closing Rikers Island — The Real Solutions and Real Consequences 46:25 What a Warden Would Actually Do Differently — Reform From the Inside 50:26 How Hip Hop Culture and Society Shape What Happens Inside Rikers 53:36 Communication Humanity and What It Really Takes to Break the Cycle 58:06 Why Supervisor Support Is the Single Most Important Factor at Rikers 01:03:11 Final Thoughts — What Both Men Want You to Know About Rikers Island _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

    I Was Sentenced to 50 Years — Then Got It Reduced to 10 | Anthony Baptiste

    Anthony Baptiste came from a good family and built a successful party promoting business — but chasing money and a bigger lifestyle pulled him into the streets. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Anthony breaks down how it all unraveled, why he turned down a plea deal and took his chances at trial, and what happened when Suffolk County handed him a sentence he believes was excessive — over 50 years in prison. He opens up about fighting his case from behind bars, the years of legal battles that followed, and how he ultimately got his sentence reduced from 50 years to 10 — and walked out free. _____________________________________________ #Prison #TrueCrime #Justice _____________________________________________ Thank you to QUINCE for sponsoring this episode: Refresh your wardrobe with Quince.
