What a great question. How has it the CJ system evolved over the last two decades? I think we're a lot more accountable. I know some people will probably disagree with that but law enforcement and First Responders are much more accountable than when I first started which is a good thing. First Responders and criminal justice professionals need to be accountable for their actions and I'd like to believe and maybe I'm just naive that most who work in the criminal justice. Justice field and First Responders are good. People just trying to do a very difficult job in a very difficult environment. But we need a lot of work and we're getting there. We still have a lot of work to do when it comes to reform and making the changes we need to make. And I also think mental health, awareness and action behind that has evolved over the last two decades. And we still have a lot of work to do in that realm too. So I hope you have a great day. Thank you for the

Some of the factors that you're trying to consider when you're determining the motive behind the crime is what's the person's personal history with or their relationship with the victim? What's the evidence at the crime scene? What is the evidence showing you? I recently had a burglary where the complaint was falsely. Reporting that his ex-wife was breaking into his house. We're actually he he had cut the window himself and the evidence at the scene didn't support the victims statement. So he ended up getting arrested for falsely, reporting and some other charges. So what are the statements that are made? What's the behavior that's being displayed? At the scene? I mentioned, what's the relationship? What is their financial situation? What's to gain? What's to be lost? Personal or emotional issues and what's their ideology, like, is this a hate crime is? What's the religion things like that? Those are all factors to be considered in the motive behind the crime. Usually, it's something emotional or Financial in in my experience. All right, one

You know, this is such a great question. How do you celebrate your own personal victories? First and foremost is never rely on anybody else to celebrate you to pay. You act leads to pump you up. Yes, people are important in your life, family and friends but it is up to you to pump yourself up your internal drive. If you're looking externally, you are always. Always going to be disappointed. Yes. People will support you. They'll tell you, you're they love you. That is great. But you have to dig deep and celebrate your own personal victories. Every day. Motivate yourself. Look inside. That's the advice. I would give you dig deep within because you have the power, you've always had the power and you always will

What do I believe are the most important qualities for a successful leader in the fire service? Excellent question. First and foremost, this Integrity, you got to do the right thing and sometimes it's hard to do the right thing. It doesn't make all the people happy and you have to accept that. You have to be technically proficient. You gotta know, you gotta know. The fire service. You got to know all the aspects of the fire service, you never stop learning. So you have To be good at your job. And then you have to do your job, and in part of doing your job is listening to the people around, you listening to hear not to respond, but then making a decision and moving forward as Leaders. It's our job to have a vision and to guide an organization and to prepare our people for the job that we're asking them to do my job as a leader. Is to help support and develop the next generation of leaders and to prepare them to be successful. So, I have to do that and do that all the time. Thanks and have a great day.

Two strategies that I use to gather information from reluctant or uncooperative Witnesses. Is one. I consider the environment. Is this a good place to talk to this person? Are they reluctant? Because of someone that could hear their answers? Are they reluctant? Because of where, we're talking. Another thing that I consider is, am I the right person? I have no ego when I'm talking to Witnesses. So if I'm not the right person to talk to and Checked with that person. Then I will pass them over to one of my partners. Sometimes it may be a female or sometimes it may be a another colleague male who is who has a lot better rapport with the person. So it's all about Rapport, and if you don't have it you need to move on and let someone else handle it, if that's possible.

What are the best characteristics of a leader? On an emergency seat, first and foremost, you have to be knowledgeable. You have to know your job. You have to master your job and you have to be prepared for any situation that arises. No problem is too big or too small. Second, you have to maintain a cool head. You have to work the problem. You can't let the distractions that are of always there on an emergency scene to get, get your focus. You have to look at the big picture and you have to break it into pieces and parts and you have to make decisions, make assignments and get the work done. The other thing that's an important characteristic is you have to prepare you yourself, your crew, your personnel long before the emergency scene ever arrives. If you're not prepared in advance, you aren't going to figure it out. When you get there. So you have to train daily master your skills and you have to make sure that everybody that works for you are the best first responder firefighter EMT paramedic they can be. So once they all get on scene, they know what their job is. And it happens, see me seamlessly, almost unconsciously and that's some of the characteristics. I think are important for a leader, on an emergency C-section. See, hope, I answered your question.
