Ed Monk is a noted expert on active killers and I have heard good things about his presentation on the subject, as well as the classes that he offers on active killer response. Well, Tim Larkin had Ed on his podcast and there is a five-part video presentation of it on YouTube. I heard several... Continue Reading →
This past Tuesday night on the CCX2 show we had the pleasure of interviewing Stephen Willeford, the man who interdicted the active killer at the Southerland Springs Baptist Church.
