E27 - Jon Griggs, Former Law Enforcement and Correctional Officer (Gang Task Force) Turned Whistleblower, Turned Kratom Advocate Extraordinaire The Kratom Guy Show

Welcome Back! Thank you so much for joining us! I am so excited to share with you my conversation I had with former LEO turned botanical freedom fighter, Jon Griggs!

Jon is a kratom consumer and advocate. He's been working in law enforcement since he’s been 21 years old. He worked in a variety of capacities such as: corrections officer, police officer, gang task force officer and investigator. Jon was subsequently fired for whistleblowing from his task force position in St. Louis Missouri! He blew the whistle on officers smuggling heroin to sell to inmates in drug treatment program and other blatant corruption. He won a 3 year lawsuit for wrongful termination against the State of Missouri.

Jon has been instrumental in facilitating the ongoing investigation into the in-custody murder of Marshall Price. The Arkansas State Police and Greene County Prosecutor announced they will not be charging anybody in the in-custody death of Marshall Price. They will be closing the case.

The official story goes like this. No exaggeration:
Marshall Price died from a consensual toilet paper and socks, two hit, punch for punch boxing match that nobody eyewitnesses Marshall agreeing to or participating in with 5’11 Odell Lewis - Marshall died three days later, later in the day that he sustained a gruesome head injury on his bunk from a slip and fall in his cell. All other injuries were abdominal injuries sustained weeks before Marshall entered the jail. Keep in mind injuries not so bad he didn’t mention it to his closest family and friends, including who he’s closest, his sister Sheena who is an RNA, but so bad enough to go around telling inmates of he previous injuries.

Jon continues to help facilitate many other ongoing investigations like the ongoing crony capitalism going on in Gonzalez Louisiana, Ascension Parish, Livingston Parish, The Life House Treatment and Smith Tank & Steel and how this all connects to Louisiana many local and state kratom criminalization attempts.
