Behind the Uniform: Real Stories from Law Enforcement

Once you as a public, once the public starts to see the police as human beings rather than the enemy, once they see law enforcement as like: oh wait, they're doing a job and it's not an easy job.
Ever wondered what it's really like to be a police officer? In this episode of 'Rescue the Rescuer', award-winning filmmaker Jim Ellis and former undercover agent Victor Resendez pull back the curtain on the life of a cop. Their documentary, 'Keeping the Peace', dives deep into the mental and emotional toll that law enforcement can take. From PTSD to addiction, they don't shy away from the tough topics.
With 33 years of experience, Victor shares his journey from deputy sheriff to undercover agent in the Mexican Drug Cartels, while Jim brings his storytelling expertise to highlight these critical issues. This episode isn't just for first responders; it's for anyone who wants to understand the human side of those who wear the badge. Tune in for an eye-opening discussion that goes beyond the uniform to reveal the real people behind it.
