Send us a text

Susan Snow is the daughter of slain Los Angeles Police Department Detective Thomas C. Williams, who was ambushed and killed on October 31, 1985 when Susan was 17 years old.  She is a published author, speaker, and coach. Her book, The Other Side of the Gun-My Journey from Trauma to Resiliency, was born out of Susan’s journey through the trauma she experienced with the death of her father. She wrote it on her pathing to healing and to help others heal through her words and experiences.  She is a powerful public speaker and healing coach whose message has value for everyone.  

In this episode of Detective Story, Mrs. Snow joins Detective Hammond for a conversation about her life, her relationship with her heroic father, her family, her book and the journey that she is on to heal herself, others and to continue to honor her father's legacy.

“I sat with my anger long enough until she told me her real name was grief.”

― C.S. Lewis

Personal note from Mike Hammond
         
I hope you enjoy this episode and the interview with the Susan Snow. It was a privilege and an honor to have the opportunity to talk with her.  The power and importance of her journey and work was again on display here again in Chicago and in city Charlotte, North Carolina in the last few days.  As I am preparing to release this episode the Chicago Police Department family and the good citizens of the City of Chicago have been devastated by murder of a Chicago Police Officer.  Patrolman Luis Huesca was shot and killed as he returned home from his shift, still in full uniform.  Killed just two days before his 31st birthday the impact Officer Huesca had in Chicago is clear and evident in the outpouring of grief, emotion and respect in his community.

In Charlotte, four law enforcement officers were shot and killed in a single incident and four others were wounded. It is hard to imagine the loss that is being felt in that community.   A very painful reminder that our law enforcement officers quite literally put everything the have on the line for our safety.

We humbly dedicate this episode to Chicago Police Officer Luis Huesca, Agents Samuel  Poloche and William Elliott of the North Carolina Department of Adult Corrections, Charlotte Police Officer Joshua Eyer,  Deputy United States Marshal Thomas Weeks and Los Angeles Police Depar
