Kasey Hagan grew up in England — and moving to America as a teenager with his father introduced him to a culture that was completely different from everything he had ever known. He got big into sports found his footing and decided he wanted to help people. He started as an animal control officer in his late teens responding to calls that most people never imagine exist. Then he discovered his first dead body on the job. Eventually Kasey became a Florida cop. For three years he responded to the worst calls dealt with the mental health weight that the job never properly prepares you for and witnessed the fundamental problems with policing that nobody in training ever talks about. The calls that haunted him. The culture that wore him down. The truth about law enforcement that only someone who lived it can tell. Then he quit. To build a content creation platform with his wife Christie — who was also a cop he met on the job — that generated hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Christie Hagan grew up on a military base in a strict family — and the rebellion that followed eventually led her down the wrong path before she turned everything around in her late teens and decided she wanted to help people. She became a hospital tech. Then a cop in Florida. For five years Christie worked as a female police officer in Florida — one of the most challenging environments for a young woman in law enforcement. She shares what it was really like as a rookie female cop in her early twenties the way colleagues and superiors treated her the hardest calls she ever responded to her own experience with domestic violence and what dating inside the department really looks like. And then she made a decision that nobody expected. She quit after five years to pursue content creation full time — with her husband who was also a cop she met on the job. They built a platform together that generated hundreds of thousands of dollars and she never looked back.

Ryan thought everything he was doing was completely legitimate. Then the feds came for him. He was indicted for bank fraud — and discovered the prosecutor had a conflict of interest with the bank.
