    A Mother’s Perspective: My Son Was Shot in the Line of Duty | Beyond The Dispatch

    In this episode of Beyond The Dispatch, Dom’s mom, Connie, joins us for one of the most personal conversations we’ve ever had on the show. We talk about Dom’s childhood, his decision to join the U.S. Coast Guard, and eventually law enforcement — and what it’s really like watching your child choose a career built around danger and service. Connie opens up about the constant worry, the silent fears, and the emotional toll that comes with being the parent of a first responder. This conversation goes even deeper as we walk through Dom’s shooting in the line of duty and the impact it had not just on him, but on his entire family. Connie shares what that moment was like from a mother’s perspective, how it changed her, and what the recovery process looked like behind the scenes — the uncertainty, the strength, and the moments no one sees. We also talk about Dom’s recovery, resilience, and how the family navigated life after everything changed. This is a raw, honest, and emotional episode about family, fear, strength, and the bonds that hold us together when everything feels like it’s falling apart.
