Speaker 1 (00:00):
Hey, welcome to the program. Johnny Brand right now, who
is working with a group called Voice of the Badge
started this group, by the way, just kind of a
coincidence that he's on with us today. There's something else
that Johnny wanted to talk about. But Johnny, we appreciate
you taking the time to be on here with us.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
Today, well having beyond justin thank you. So there's at
the trial. I just hope there's no violence. Piece of
what we all need on both sides. And that's all
I have to say about that as far as what
we have going on as Darro Black was a Long Beach,
California police officer and he was ambushed and killed. His
(00:39):
sister is Karen Black, who I've gotten to know. She
was a member of the Voice for the Badge on
the board. She also was on the Cops Censor concerns
the police survivors, So the survivors of police officers getting killed,
they help them and go through all the trauma they
have to go through, which never ends, but just try
(01:00):
to make him. But Karen's a very special person. And
we're having an event Brands and Granville Wednesday night. That'll
be April thirtieth, that's his end of the watch day
for Darryl. We're going to have a lot of people there.
We're honor Daryl. We're going to have some people speak
that we're friends of his one his childhood. We're gonna
have a fundraiser for for Daryl that will Karen will
(01:24):
give out as two police causes. I'm sure concerns the
police survivors will be one thin boo line. She'll she'll
utilize those funds for police related causes. We're excited to
honor Darrell. He was as anybody does their history on
him and looks him up, Daryl Black, he was quite
a police officer. I mean this he was. He was
just a everything I've read about him and talking to
(01:47):
Karen and it's still affects Karen to this day. I mean,
this was gosh, you know, take camera Omber the year.
But it's been a long time and April thirtieth was
his under watch day when he was murdered, and that's
what he was. So I'm not going to mince any words.
And uh, he's a fallen hero and we're going to
honor him Wednesday night at Brandon Brandville.
Speaker 1 (02:08):
You know, Johnny, one of the things about uh that
I think the other side of the story that doesn't
get told a lot in the media, and Voice for
the Badges been very good about this, but you know
this is this is the story of the families that
are left behind, that that that have to deal with
even even ones are the their loved ones going to
(02:30):
the heat of it every day, just not knowing what's
you know what the outcome is going to be.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
Oh my goodness, I think about job often. I know
a lot of officers and again it's the ninety nine
nine officers are warned the duty, they honored the badge
and there's a lot of great police officers out there,
extra down sure brave bravery name has to go next
to a police officer. We're gonna honor Daryl Black and
(02:59):
just so weapons and to watch the day of April thirtieth,
and it's going to be a nice event at Brands Brandville.
We're going to donate proceeds from the twenty percent of
proceeds from the sales. We're just excited for Karen. We
really I think it'll be great for Karen to have
that out poor and see that support, and so we're
(03:19):
looking forward to honor Biro.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
Black Johnny got to ask you obviously in the scenario
out here, you know, one of the things that makes
Voice for the Bad sits the unique organization is you
all really are looking to bridge the gap and help
continue the community relations between police and folks in the community.
(03:41):
It's such an important thing that needs to happen. People
need to know police are there to help them. And
of course if you can do that, you can get
those relationships established between the police and the community, then
we have better outcomes.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
Of the seamlin right, And yeah, we do work on
that at WAUSE Elijah Libbett, Tyrone buying them people in
the inner city that we want to improve relations between
the police because I can understand that there's some situations
have to happen that that people are become suspect, Like Jesus,
(04:15):
can I go out tonight They're going to arrest me.
I mean, it's it's not that way. But we've got
to break break bridge the gap. There's there's can be unity.
I do think Grand Rapids needs more police officers that
will give them a time to be an inner city
walking to be getting to know people, getting to know
the kids, letting them know they're human, they're human beings
(04:35):
and their help. I just think that's so important and
that's what works for the Badge is working towards we
support our police, and we also uh work to improve
relations within the cities and we've made some headway and
we'll continue on with that because that's it's it's I
mean the third Ward and Grand Rapids needs funding. That's
that's the inner city basically that area. The city needs
(04:59):
to give them funding. They have needs, they need resource
to accomplish them, and I've pressed the city on that
many times. I think that's needed there and that's where
money should be put. And it's pretty as simple to
see when you look at the other wards, which other
words have issues too, But as far as the needs,
it's majority bonds they need in the third ward. So
(05:20):
police unity with the inner cities is what we're all about.
That's what we're about. So I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
And where can folks find out more about the event
and Voice of the Badge if they want to become
maybe come out and become supporters here?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Yeah, they could actually go on our Facebook page that's
got the information on their Voice of the Badge, or
I guess I don't know any other way, but I'm
telling you now, I'm not really sure, but we do
have flyers up at Granville promoting it. We word of
(06:01):
mouth and brought some of the citizens Granville know that
he grew up in Granville. So there's one gentleman will
be there named Glenn. He grew up with a family
nose Tyran knew Mom and dad knew Daryl, so he's
going to be there, and I've spoken to him and
he speaks so highly of Daryl in the whole family.
But Daryl is a hero. He's a fallen hero, Daryl
(06:24):
Black and to watch April thirty, he's a hero, a
fallen hero that went out and protected lives. He was
on drugs and warped games and that's what it was
all about. That's and he was basically just shot twice
right to the window and killed. His partner was shot too.
He survived. So it's just like you said, you never
(06:44):
know when you walked out the door that day, what
could happen in that profession, And unfortunately for Darrel, the
worst happened. But God bless him and we're honored to
honor him.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Absolutely. Johnny Brand, thank you so much. For the Lacey.
Thank you for all you do for folks in the community,
and of course to Darryl and his family, thank you well.
Speaker 2 (07:06):
I appreciate you, Justin and thanks for having me on
and have a great day.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
You got it, brother, Thank you. Johnny. There you have it.
Darryl Black and April thirtieth was that day. And you
know the story behind Darryl as he just mentioned, this
is Long Beach Police Department, California, and he's got but
he's got relatives back here too, where the family is.
But it's a story you're going to hear more about
(07:31):
that night he shot and killed his partner and he
were ambushed by a gang member with ar fifteen two
officers members of the Long Beach Police Department's Anti Gang
unit driving an unmarked vehicle approximately eleven pm where they
were struck by gunfire in that ambush style attack in
the nineteen hundred block of North Lime Avenue. The report reads.
After both officers was shot, one officer was able to
(07:54):
call for assistance. Both taken to the local hospital, where
Darryl died approximately one hour later. Neither officer was able
to return fire. The perpetrator arrested two days later, after
being identified through an investigation, man found guilty sentenced to
death during his second trial. Officer Black was a US
(08:16):
Marine Corps veteran, served with the Long Beach Police Department
for six years, in the ben In law enforcement for ten,
and they will be honoring him again tomorrow. What is
it Wednesday night? Rather at Brand's Steakhouse in Grill in Grandville,
