Courage Under Fire: The Untold Story of January 6th Series Preview

Courage Under Fire: The Untold Story of January 6th Series Preview

In this special preview episode of Heroes Behind the Badge, we introduce a groundbreaking three-part series featuring former U.S. Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund's first interview since his congressional exoneration. Chief Sund reveals shocking details about the events of January 6th, 2021, including:

  • The overwhelming odds his officers faced - 30,000 protesters against just 273 officers
  • Critical decisions made during 71 minutes of desperate calls for backup
  • Previously unreported details about the military's delayed response
  • The impact of political interference on law enforcement operations
  • The true story of how 1,700 officers from 17 agencies came together to defend democracy

Chief Sund shares how his officers maintained remarkable restraint despite facing brutal violence, and offers a compelling glimpse into the leadership challenges of one of the most scrutinized days in American law enforcement history.

This episode also introduces Heroes Behind the Badge, a new podcast dedicated to sharing the real stories of America's law enforcement professionals. Hosted by Craig Floyd, whose 34-year career supporting law enforcement brings unmatched credibility to these crucial conversations, each episode will bring you behind the scenes with the brave men and women who protect our communities.

Join us next week for Part 1 of our exclusive interview with Chief Sund, where we'll dive deep into the days leading up to January 6th and the critical decisions that shaped law enforcement's response.
