Ep 30: Career Ending Injury with Bradley, retired LAPD Metro Officer

Bradley (@patient0zero on IG), a medically retired LAPD officer, discusses his upbringing in the Midwest, his path to the elite Metro Division of the LAPD, and what seemed like a minor injury during an apprehension of a suspect. Due to misdiagnosis and delays caused by COVID, the injury sat untreated, resulting in a nonfunctional leg with excruciating pain. We discuss the headache of dealing with city medical and the IOD process, and we talk mental health and the impact something like this can have. Throughout the conversation, Bradley gives the listener specific advice if, God forbid, you find yourself in a situation where you've been injured in the line of duty. Of course, we dive into Bradley's watch collection journey. This raw conversation takes you behind what happens after an incident is over, and the aftermath begins.
