This week, we have a bit of a different discussion on the podcast.  We welcome Alex Kompethecras, owner of Alpha Law Group for an in-depth roundtable discussion to go over an incident that happened in September of 2024.  On that evening, a local man with autism found himself in a situation with the Holmes Police Department while trying to interpret between the police and his father.For those who may want to see the full video, along with some additional context to the incident that will be discussed on the podcast, you can view that at:https://youtu.be/YzjanWpvQzw?si=a7zum2fEVIoJUSqwAlex, who has two siblings of his own with autism, he has taken a specific interest in the case, bailing the young man out of jail.  Alex shares with us some of the issues that people may encounter when dealing with someone who has autism, and hopes to help provide additional education so that instances like the one that happened last year, don’t occur again in the future.As a result, Alex is holding a 5K on March 1, to help raise awareness for Autism.  In addition to the run at Benderson Park, there will be activities and entertainment for the entire family.  You can learn more, or sign up to run at:https://runsignup.com/Race/FL/Sarasota/AlphaLawGroupAutism5K You can also follow Alex on Instagram at:https://www.instagram.com/alex_kompo/Follow Alpha Law Group at:https://www.alphagroup.law/********Sarasota SpeaX is a hyper-local podcast that will feature the incredible entrepreneurs, leaders and personalities that make Sarasota, and the greater surrounding area, tick.
