Jay was a federal agent for twenty-seven years before retiring in 2014. He achieved worldwide notoriety as one of history's most daring undercover operators during high-octane missions targeting America's violent crime. Often playing the role of a shrewdly-calculating hitman or mob debt collector infiltrating scores of deadly criminal enterprises while living among street and prison gangs, anti-government extremists, gunrunning groups, drug traffickers and organized crime members, bomb builders, home invasion robbery crews and "murder-for-hire" suspects.A defense attorney once described Jay as: "...a government-trained ‘Predator’ repeatedly sent on seek and destroy missions in search of drugs, guns and violence, with instructions to succeed at any cost and without regard for the agent himself or those he crosses paths with.”Jay is perhaps best known for his landmark effort against the notorious Hells Angels. He was the first-ever lawman to defeat the gang’s multilayered security measures getting inside to become a member of their legendary Skull Valley charter. Jay's book about that investigation - No Angel, My Harrowing Undercover Journey to the Inner Circle of the Hells Angels - is a New York Times and international bestseller. His follow-up book - Catching Hell, A True Story of Abandonment and Betrayal - is a memoir that details the events of his life and career. Jay is a highly-sought public speaker relating his unique experiences to corporate audiences and providing training for 1st Responder events across the country.   Find Jay here:   https://jaydobyns.com/index.html     Please take a moment and rate and review the podcast on iTunes - We sure would appreciate it.    Stay tuned for more great guests.     Patrick

In this solo episode, Patrick talks about the importance of social media for law enforcement. It wasn't too long ago that very few people knew what social media was or what it could do for an organization. Now, most law enforcement agencies utilize some sort of social media platform(s). Social media has its downfalls, but it can also be very beneficial for an organization and it can help the department connect better with the community, and build strong community relationships. Here are 8 social media tips for law enforcement.

He was once a respected police officer in New Orleans, serving for years until 1979. Then he was arrested. He began with aspirations to be a great cop, but he was quickly exposed to a darker side of law enforcement. While partnered with a veteran officer, he witnesses this officer violating the very laws he had vowed to uphold and shared in his crimes. One compromise led to another. Soon Robert faced arrest, so he ran. From studying criminal law at Loyola University and becoming an award-winning Officer, he now became a fugitive and skilled survivalist, living off the land in remote forests in America and Canada, where he hid for over 20 years. He grew up tough, and hard. His grandmother had made sure he learned about God, but in anger he rejected his church upbringing. Through a stranger's prayer the hostile atheist finally realized he was tired of running and turned himself in. When the District Attorney finally dusted off his file, what would his sentence be? Robert went on to write a best selling book called Running Scared. An amazing story of survival, faith and a new path.

These challenging, but rewarding efforts earned him the nickname “Guardian of the Golden GateBridge.” Retired, Briggs is now dedicating his life to promoting mental health awareness and suicide prevention across the globe.

Hello everyone and welcome back to the show. Special thanks to all the brave men and women who work in the criminal justice field. Here at the CJEvolution Podcast we appreciate what you do and keep up the great work. In this episode, Patrick welcomes Victor Avila. Victor is a survivor. Soft-spoken but iron-willed, he dedicated his life to law enforcement and to his country. Yet, the feds have been fighting very hard to bury the full truth about the 2011 ambush by Los Zetas Drug Cartel thughs in Mexico that left him gravely wounded and his partner, special agent, Jaime Zapata, dead. After Victor started to heal from this incident, he also started to dig into the operation that he and his partner should have never been told to do in the first place. The more information that Victor started to uncover the more some beltway bureaucrats started to obstruct the Avlia's and Zapata's search for answers. What the Obama administration hid as evidence mounted that that the semi-automatic weapons and handguns used in the ambush came from one of its botched gun-walking operations that echoed the infamous and deadly Operation Fast and Furious Scheme. A very powerful story about heroism, survival instincts from two dedicated law enforcement professionals, and deception from the highest levels of the US Government. This episode will keep you on the edge of your seat.

He started and developed the Daily Grind Podcast to help people who are just like he was. The podcast airs live 5 days a week and features some of the world's most facinating people. His guests include the worlds top entrepreneurs and other influencial people. Colin hopes to educate and inspire listeners to do what you have always wanted to do.

Hello everyone and welcome back to the show. Thank you all for the continued support. Special thanks to all the brave men and women who protect us everday working in the criminal justice field. It's a very difficult environment. Keep up the great work. Steve Jobs once said " Your time is limited, don't waste it living someone else's life." Unfortunately, most of us do. We are afraid to act and go for our dreams. We are terrified of what people might think or say about us. The only thing we have in life is time, and we can control what we spend our time on. If you have that dream of writing your book, or starting your business - DO IT! Take that first step. Every great journey requires that. In this episode, Patrick talks about 10 reasons why you should go after your dreams.  This is a great article from the Huffington Post. https://www.huffingtonpost.com/elyse-gorman/10-reasons-why-you-should_4_b_6214706.html Do you love coffee?
