    Carly Sullivan-Roland on Journalists as Legislators

    This week on Mayhem, I talk to my friend and host of the hot new podcast about the twenty year murder spree in Chicago that has been grossly under-reported. We talk about the DNA backlog and the role of journalism in spurring legislation.

    Brooklyn to Baghdad with Chris Strom

    Brooklyn to Baghdad with Chris Strom

    Michele talks with NYPD Intelligence and Counter-Terrorism expert Chris Strom about his transfer from the Narcotics division to a very different type of work. They talk about the work the NYPD does on the ground in foreign nations to prevent terrorism in New York (and, consequentially, other cities.) Specifically we get into applying organized crime fighting tactics as applied to insurgents in Iraq.

    MERCHANT OF DEATH - WORLD'S MOST NOTORIOUS WEAPONS TRAFFICKER COULD BE TRADED FOR WNBA STAR BRITTNEY GRINER IN RUSSIAN PRISON SWAP

    MERCHANT OF DEATH - WORLD'S MOST NOTORIOUS WEAPONS TRAFFICKER COULD BE TRADED FOR WNBA STAR BRITTNEY GRINER IN RUSSIAN PRISON SWAP

    Tom Pasquarello, our guest this week, led the DEA operation that resulted in the extradition and arrest of Russian national, and highly active weapons dealer Victor Bout. The word in Washington is that he is going to be traded in a prisoner exchange for Brittney Griner and Ex-Marine Paul Whelan. In light of the recent push for stricter gun laws, it seems a bit backwards to free a man who could flood the global weapons markets once again. We dive into the story on the week's Mayhem with Michele McPhee.

Boston’s best crime reporter

There’s no one around that better represents Boston crime reporting than Michele. I miss the old days of print reporting, but having this podcast with her diligent reporting, interviews and insights keeps criminals and law enforcement in the forefront of our minds.

Listen!!

I have missed Michelle McPhee’s wit and style in her investigations on TV and radio here in Boston. Thank goodness she has this podcast! This podcast will keep your interest and make you question everything you thought you knew about the horrendous Boston Marathon bombings. Excited to hear there will be a season two! (And hopefully many more)
