I'm a Florida Cop — Here's the Dark Side of the Job | Danny Herrera

Danny Herrera joins Locked In with Ian Bick to share his journey from being a teacher to becoming a police officer in Florida and the life-changing moments he experienced on the job. Danny talks about the first real call he responded to that still haunts him today, the officer-involved shooting he survived, and the mental health challenges many police officers quietly deal with. He also explains why he chose to become a school resource officer, what it takes to keep kids safe in today's world, and how he later trained to become a hostage negotiator. This episode dives into the reality of modern policing, the emotional toll of the job, and the lessons Danny has learned from some of the most intense moments of his career.
