    Leadership, Complaints, and a Saving a Shot Kid with Ret. Lt. Eric Dym

    Leadership, Complaints, and a Saving a Shot Kid with Ret. Lt. Eric Dym

    Retired NYPD Lt. Eric Dym joins me on this episode. He is known as the most complained cop on the NYPD but few have taken the time to hear his story. He is also the co-host of New York's Finest: Retired and Unfiltered Podcast. We have a broad ranging conversation about his career, leadership, and the Civilian Complaint Review Board in New York and how they are weaponizing punishment against good cops. Plus I highlight the work of 2 Philadelphia PD officers who faced off with an armed suspect and then I close out the episode talking about the Author of Truth and why knowing Him can bring peace and salvation.

Real, Informative

I’m so glad I found a show that is clean! Diakonos A Cop’s Calling is one of my top podcasts and I look forward to each episode! I hope to go into law enforcement in the future and this podcast is very informative about the profession. They don’t try to sugarcoat they share the rights and wrongs of policing today. Great guest’s, great topics, great stories!
