]]> Copville copvilleog@gmail.com Episode 57: The media! They are who we thought they were What happens when the media decides who gets heard—and who gets silenced? In this episode, former law enforcement officer Michael Dilks of Copville breaks down how he was blocked by Sebastian Daily, a local Indian River County news outlet, after speaking out against Sheriff Eric Flowers. Dilks dives into the reality behind the scenes—highlighting the relationship between Eric Flowers and Sebastian Daily owner Andy Hodges and raising serious questions about whether that connection is influencing what the public is allowed to see. According to Dilks, anything critical of the Sheriff simply doesn’t get published. No coverage. No transparency. No accountability. This episode exposes what happens when local media stops acting as a watchdog and starts acting as a gatekeeper—filtering information to protect power instead of informing the public. If the media won’t report it… Who will? This is more than just one post being blocked— It’s about the danger of selective reporting, the erosion of public trust, and what it means when the people responsible for informing the community choose silence over truth. They are who we thought they were. — Copville Learn more about your ad choices.

]]> 2022 Episode 55: Sheriff Flowers has the community and agency Out Of Gas! In this episode, Out of Gas, we break down how the citizens—and the deputies actually doing the work—are being left running on empty. While the community expects protection and professionalism, leadership is burning through resources like there’s no tomorrow. Sheriff Eric Flowers and his command staff continue to operate under a completely different set of rules—wasting agency resources, stretching budgets thin, and then turning around and holding deputies to standards they themselves don’t follow. We dig into the growing frustration inside the agency: – Training budgets getting cut or ignored – Deputies lacking proper resources and support – Critical funding being mismanaged while frontline personnel are expected to “figure it out” It’s the classic double standard—command staff living comfortably while the people actually answering the calls are left out of gas. When leadership fails to lead by example, morale tanks, standards collapse, and the public ultimately pays the price.

]]> 2432 yes Episode 4: Deputy Chief Lance Fisher I sat down with the former Deputy Chief of the Palm Bay Police Department Lance Fisher. Fisher was a combat Marine and then became a police officer at the Palm Bay Police Department in Florida. Fisher worked patrol and then went on to street crimes. He eventually supervised the street crimes unit as Big Sarge, and after that as the LT. Fisher worked his way to Deputy Chief but learned all the loyalty and hard work he put into his career would be quickly destroyed over a simple disagreement with the Chief of Police. The Chief was a former partner, close friend, and Godfather to one of Deputy Chief Fisher's children but none of that mattered when they set out to get rid of Deputy CHief Fisher.
