104 - Deputy Down: Deborah Green, Dispatcher

Text the Show or Leave a VoicemailToday we're talking to Deborah Green; she was a California dispatcher for almost 30 years and has a compelling story to tell.  She dispatched her deputies to a middle of the night call at a marijuana grow in the forests of California where they were ambushed by drug cartel gunmen.  The story itself is remarkable but I wanted you to hear this one because it's told from the point of view of the dispatcher.  In part two of the interview we will look at the aftermath of the shooting and what the fallout was for everyone involved including the dispatchers. Music is by Chris HaugenHey Chaplain Podcast Episode 104Tags:Dispatchers, Drug Cartels, CISM, Communications, Helplessness, Line of Duty Death, National Guard, Radio, Shootout, Trauma, CaliforniaSupport the showThanks for Listening!  And, as always, pray for peace in our city.Subscribe/Follow here:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/hey-chaplain/id1570155168Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2CGK9A3BmbFEUEnx3fYZOYEmail us at: [email protected] can help keep the show ad-free by buying me a virtual coffee!https://www.buymeacoffee.com/heychaplain
