In this episode of the Built Different Podcast, host Collin Ledbetter welcomes St. Louis Police Officer Dylan to share stories from his five years of policing in District 6. Dylan reflects on his journey from growing up in DeSoto, Missouri, to serving in the Navy, and eventually transitioning into law enforcement.
The two discuss Dylan’s time in the Navy, including his deployments to Japan and Cambodia, and the unexpected path that led him to the police academy in 2019. Dylan recounts his rookie days in the academy, the challenges of adapting to high-crime areas like Walnut Park, and the unique experiences that come with policing one of St. Louis’ most intense districts.
With humor and insight, Dylan and Collin dive into the highs, lows, and unforgettable moments of their shared profession. Whether you’re interested in military stories, law enforcement, or just love a good laugh, this episode has it all.
