SR’s choreographed drumming provides fun and invigorating entertainment and it is rewarding for us as performers when audiences enjoy our music. However, there is a deeper purpose within our presentations. Music is a universal language and SR uses this opening to speak to the hearts of our audiences by way of personal stories and letters. These are not words about strangers, but of members of one human family, people that have displayed courage, commitment, and genuine concern for the welfare of others, even under trial. This process is meant to inspire all to not only become better individuals, but to take action to help others succeed in life as well. We all do have the power to make changes and to make a difference in the lives of our neighbors, and thus in the world around us.

Stupid Criminal: Robbery suspects

NBC 10 News
Published: November 4, 2009

NEW BEDFORD, Mass.— Two men tried to rob another man at gunpoint—right across the street from New Bedford District Court Tuesday.

The Standard Times reports the gunmen apparently chose their victim because they saw him counting money inside his car near Hill and Kempton streets.

The victim slammed his car into gear and drove into the court parking lot and avoided being robbed. Police are using courthouse security camera video to try and identify the suspects.

STEVENS POINT, Wis. -- A woman didn't have to look far to figure out who likely broke into her home and took a camera from her purse. Police said the burglar left behind his probation and parole card.

Could Bee Worse

Ricky Dale Ford was jailed in September in Conway, Ark., accused of stealing an all-terrain vehicle. While joyriding, Ford had accidentally hit a beehive, and when police found him in nearby woods, he was "barely breathing," one officer said, having been stung more than 100 times.

Episode 174 - Dr. Thief

PoliceontheScene@yahoo.com (JD Dhein) — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 07:00:00 -0700

J.D. Dhein, nationally known crime prevention professional, discusses this disturbing news story.

Doctor, wife accused of shoplifting just for kicks

Posted: Dec. 16, 2009 6:32 a.m.

When people are arrested for theft at Mayfair Mall, police often hear suspects complain of being out of work or having an addiction to drugs as reasons for their crimes.

But a doctor who makes more than $150,000 per year and his wife had a different excuse: they did it for the thrill of the sport.

According to Wauwatosa police:

The Milwaukee couple arrived at the mall on Saturday evening planning to shop for Christmas gifts. Instead, the 30-year-old wife suggested they take what they wanted. Because Macy's was so busy with shoppers, she didn't think they would be noticed.

They took turns serving as a lookout while the other took items - more than $1,500 worth - from just about every department in the store. They stuffed items in shopping bags from other stores, purses and the stroller carrying their two young children.

The 39-year-old husband likened the experience to "a game" in which the couple saw what they could get away with.

After they were arrested, the husband told officers he was a doctor who earns more than $150,000 per year and had more than enough money to pay for the items.

Episode 173 - Wasp Spray

PoliceontheScene@yahoo.com (JD Dhein) — Tue, 30 Mar 2010 07:00:00 -0700

J.D. Dhein is caught by surprise with this question: Can you replace pepper spray with wasp spray? Well, find out. The viral e-mail that follows is what started it all:

A friend who is a receptionist in a church in a high risk area was concerned about someone coming into the office on Monday to rob them when they were counting the collection. She asked the local police department about using pepper spray and they recommended to her that she get a can of wasp spray instead.

The wasp spray, they told her, can shoot up to twenty feet away and is a lot more accurate, while with the pepper spray, they have to get too close to you and could overpower you. The wasp spray temporarily blinds an attacker until they get to the hospital for an antidote. She keeps a can on her desk in the office and it doesn't attract attention from people like a can of pepper spray would. She also keeps one nearby at home for home protection... Thought this was interesting and might be of use.

Episode 152 - E-mail about Police Physical Fitness

PoliceontheScene@yahoo.com (JD Dhein) — Tue, 11 Aug 2009 07:00:00 -0700

We received an e-mail about Police and Physical Fitness. This is an excerpt:

I been watching police show forever. I recently watched "rookie" on A&E and it really was a wake up call for me. I guess I never realized how dangerous a police line of work really is until I saw that show. I have now more admiration for the position. I personally have profound respect now more than ever for law enforcement. I as a citizen have become a lot more vigilant and I am learning this street defense called senshido. www.senshido.com This is about street smarts and getting home safe not just a physical but a lot of phsycological defense which many karate forms arts don't show and are not practical in a city. I think learning safety in all forms is really important.

Here is a question and I mean no offense by it but I wonder if it hinders officers ability to perform. I often see cops or police shows where the officer is somewhat overweight. Is that really safe? If officers who may have a harder time moving or may have health issues based on their weight? I just wonder because it is something I would worry about if I am counting on someone to back me up as an officer I hope that he his in tip top shape and ready to cover me. Is there a fitness level one must have, regardless of size that one has to maintain to stay on the force?

Anyway love the podcast gives me great tips to just get me to look out. A lot of respect and shout out form the Nations Capital.

- Javier
