In this special episode, we shift gears to cover a deeply disturbing and ongoing case out of Brent, Alabama where children were recently rescued from a suspected human trafficking operation. We break down what happened in Bibb County, including the charges filed, key moments from the Sheriff’s press conference, and our own perspective as detectives. We also take time to explain what human trafficking really is, how cases like this impact law enforcement officers, and why this is not just a local tragedy but part of a much larger issue. At the heart of this conversation is a reminder: protecting children is a responsibility we all share.
