Today on DANGER CLOSE: THE FOURTH OPTION, I’m joined by Derek Benner, CEO of OUR Rescue and a veteran of nearly three decades in federal law enforcement.

Derek served with Homeland Security Investigations, helped lead the creation of the DHS Center for Countering Human Trafficking, and now continues that mission through OUR Rescue’s work combating sex trafficking and child exploitation.

We get into the evolution of Homeland Security Investigations, the adaptability of modern cartels, drug smuggling, money laundering, human trafficking, child exploitation, and how technology has become a weapon predators use to target children. We also discuss the role of electronic storage detection dogs, survivor care, prevention, and why law enforcement cannot arrest its way out of this crisis.

This is a companion podcast to my new thriller, THE FOURTH OPTION, talking to those on the front lines, analyzing modern warfare, and taking listeners deeper into the themes that inspired the novel.

This podcast series is presented by HUXWRX Safety Co., Staccato 2011, and Bravo Company.

Today on DANGER CLOSE: THE FOURTH OPTION, I’m joined by Ben and Jessica Owen, founders of We Fight Monsters, an organization dedicated to confronting trafficking and addiction with a lawful, boots-on-the-ground response.

Ben and Jessica share their own battles with addiction, homelessness, and life inside trap houses in South Memphis, and how recovery led to restoration and a calling to go back for others.

We get into their mission to Rescue, Recover, and Restore, the reality of addiction as a tool of control, the connection between narcotics and exploitation, their work converting former dope houses into recovery spaces, their experience running safe houses during the Afghanistan evacuation, and why redemption often begins by helping others.
