Speaker 1 (00:00):
All right, it is Zato four here at News Radio
(00:01):
forty whas appreciate you guys hanging out with us here
on a Friday morning. Bourbon and Beyond is day two today,
and if you did not know, there is a Taidi theme,
I did not know they did themes for this, but
to be advised, if you're going, there's gonna be a
lot of people wearing Taidi. All right, we've got our
continued conversation here set up with LMPD Chief Paul Humphrey
who joins us here in studio. We were talking a
(00:22):
little bit off the break during the break about Bourbon
and Beyond as far as just the presence with LMPD
when it comes to those kind of events, there's some
or some are required for you guys to just have
people there, and then some that is volunteer basis.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Well, basically we know that security is a must these
days for events like that's sure something that big. It's
not just the security, but it's important to the city also,
and so there is a private contractor with Danny Wimber
that hires out security, but we also provide some of
those specialty resources. You know, you can't hire out a
squat team. You can't can't hire out a bomb squad.
So we make sure that we provide a lot of
(00:56):
those resources to the venue and to the event to
make sure that it's a vent.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
And when it comes to those again, this this event,
along with next week's Louder than Life, I believe I
saw that the eight days, within that short amount of time,
it's the biggest. It's there's nothing like it in the
country as far as the amount of people that are
going to be in an event like this. When it
comes to just public safety recently, what has happened with
Charlie Kirk, I mean, have you guys had I mean,
(01:22):
I'm sure there's been more aware people wanting to make
sure they're safe. And again you can't guarantee that, you
just don't know, but clearly it's a heightened awareness right
now given what's going on right and.
Speaker 2 (01:30):
Those are those have always been conversations we've had for
you know, now, for extending back a decade or more
about making sure that these public venues are safe, you know,
particularly after the Las Vegas shooting. You know, I think
everyone's stance on these public events really changed after that,
and so we've had a focus of making sure that
that public venues are safe. Like I said, we've been
providing the SWAT team to a lot of these things,
(01:52):
but it is, you know, to go back to your point,
that's a pretty amazing event. And you're talking about well
over one hundred thousand people over the course of several
from across the world, from across the world, right And
you know Josh hash who's here with us today, he
was out there fangirl in the Benson Boone last.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Night, and so that's one of the big names this year,
right right.
Speaker 2 (02:11):
I don't know much about him. All I know is
apparently he didn't do is flip off the piano last night.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
I heard that was the thing.
Speaker 1 (02:18):
Yeah, And I look at the lineup and I was
telling Dwight Mitchell this. I look at the lineup for
both of these events and I feel so out of
touch with music. I don't know a lot of these acts,
but clearly they're a big deal because people again come
from across the world to see them.
Speaker 2 (02:29):
One hundred percent. And I know you're pretty old up there,
in your mid late.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Thirties, late thirties. Yeah, I can't say mid thirties anymore.
People can call me up.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Yeah, young folks like me. We know who people like
Vinton Boone are.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
So what I enjoy about our conversations that I have
each week with Dwight Mitchell, and of course glad to
have you here as well. I like to humanize what
you guys do, because I think it's just something so
often people don't do. Maybe not even there's not an
intentional thing, it's just it's how some people have become wired.
So I'm going to ask you a few questions that
you may not get often when you when you're talking
to him her phone onto a platform like this. If
(03:02):
you did not do law enforcement or I guess now
I know the answer, attorney, what would you do?
Speaker 2 (03:06):
Well, don't don't say I'd be an attorney because.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Well, I mean, yeah, well I guess you could go
to lawspoon. I'll be attorney, but I got you. Yeah, yeah,
so take law enforcement and legal out of it.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
No, I mean I think you know, I think every
kid wants to be an astronaut at some point.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Okay, yeah, I think I had a brief.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
Phase of that. I think I think that'd be pretty awesome.
But no, I think I would stay somewhere in the
service room. Right, I have a real passion about about service.
So I don't know if it would be military or
something like that, but something where I can still take
care of people. I love to teach also, so that's
something I do on the side as well.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
So so in your one of the things you've mentioned
this summer that really stood out to me, and we
talked a lot about it on the show is parents
needing to know where where their kids are. And that
is something that clearly is an issue.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
But that's and I could be wrong here, it's not
a new.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Issue, but it is there is has it gotten worse lately?
And if so, do you see any rom or reason
as to why it just seems to be something that
of course has become a bigger issue.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Right, It's absolutely not a new issue. I know when
I was brand new on the street, you know, seventeen
eighteen years ago, we were dealing with kids that were
out at three am. And I'm sure Dwight when he
was doing it, you know, twenty five plus years ago,
he was dealing with the same thing. But there is
a level of violence and the availability guns out there
that is different these days. And I don't want to
(04:29):
simplify that conversation about about parents. It's a very complicated
thing because there are a lot of really good parents
out there who I know my parents, you know, both
my parents worked multiple jobs, I had a two parent household,
I had a neighborhood that looked out for me, and
I still did stupid stuff. So when you're talking about
the parents that I was specifically talking about when I
made that comment, is really those that either just aren't
(04:52):
playing an active role in their kid's life or are
contributing to the problems that are kids are calls and
we know that just like I can up in the
family business of law enforcement, some people come in the
family business of crime. And so it's it's a really
horrible situation when you're talking about parents, mothers, fathers, you know,
cousins that are contributing to the delinquency of the kids.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
So I'm glad you said that, because there are clearly
parents that are trying their best and maybe they just
don't have the resources. Maybe they do and they simply
just can't get through because kids are going to be
impressionable at certain ages and and go down the wrong path.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
That happens.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
I know people that had the same situation I did
growing up very fortunate to just have, as you mentioned,
two parents in the household and whatnot, and yet they
just they go down the wrong path, those types of parents.
And I know not everybody's situation is the same. When
it comes to not I'll go, I'll just get to it.
The Juvenile Attention Center. I mean, is it crazy to
(05:49):
think that some parents may actually prefer their children to
be there because they feel as if they will, they
will learn a lesson, they will grow from that, and
they'll know that they don't have to wake up to
a potentially phone call that they that they are involved
than something that could take their life.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
No, it's a really unfortunate situation. We're talking about. Sometimes
the safest place for a young persons to be in jail.
But that is the absolute truth. And sometimes locking these
kids up or locking up people period is what keeps
them along. So you have to do one hundred percent
and so either what keeps them alive or keeps somebody
else alive. Also we're talking about you know, when we
had a functional juvenile justice center, they were eating every day,
(06:26):
they were getting proper meals, they were forced to go
to school, they received mental health therapy. They had more
structure in their life inside a facility than they get
at any other point in their life. And that's that's
the unfortunate reality that we're talking about. And you know,
hopefully something like that is the wake up call for
some of these kids.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
I mean, and again, it's not something you can just
snap your fingers and it happens at the state level things.
So I don't I don't want to insinuate that anybody's
dragging their feet on it around here, but I just
feel as if there's no way that could do anything
but potentially help the current situation. No.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
I mean, I'll tell you it's depressing when you're putting
a kid in jail, Absolutely putting a young person in jail.
It's you know, not just a kid, but you know
somebody who's seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty years old. You know
that when you put a felony on that kid or
that young person, that's going to track with them for
a long time and it's going to have downstream effects.
But like I said, sometimes that's the best thing for.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
I tell you what, I bet there are children that
you could see it coming because they've they've fallen down
that path and they've yet to really wake up and
realize that they are in fact, potentially going to ruin
their lives. And that's got to be really Again, this
is the human element of what you all do to
where I mean, you try to connect with them, maybe
(07:41):
you make an impression, but then they end up quickly
being influenced by others. I mean, it's tough for citizens
to see this news about children being involved in this,
but some of these individuals are probably people that you
saw it coming well.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
Yeah, And that's the disappointing thing is that you know,
we walk into these houses and we see these kids
and it just breaks your heart. And you know that,
oh it absolutely is. You see five, eight, ten years
old that breaks your heart. But you know that one
day you might be dealing with this kid who's sixteen, seventeen, eighteen,
and they are a horrible person. And we also have
(08:16):
to remember that as much compassion as we have for
those young people, we have as much and more for
victims of the things that they do. Sure, and so
we have a role to protect people who become victims
of their crimes. And that's a very important part too.
Speaker 1 (08:30):
So back to the lighthearted question, what was the last
movie you watched?
Speaker 3 (08:34):
Oh my gosh, do you have time to watch movies?
Do you sleep? I can't imagine you can sleep.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I can't tell you the last movie I watched. I
just started a show.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
I think it's so can I guess maybe maybe a
movie with your kid. That'd be the last time a
movie was on.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
And you were Oh, dude, Honestly, I'm.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Not surprised now that I think about it.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Yeah, if you turn on a movie, it's it's naptime
for Yeah, I'm following us.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
That's when you get a chance to catch sleep. I guess.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yeah. No, I think the last thing I really watched
was there's a show on Netflix now, Kidnapped.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
It's a British show, okay, and uh, it's binge watch.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
I watched two or three years old. But yeah, uh,
And that's been like three weeks now, and I haven't
gotten gotten back to watching it again yet either.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
I know, I know, I know the feeling. So how
do you balance everything? I mean, I feel like your
job is one that none of us would ever be
able to really know kind of what goes into it.
But as I asked you that question, I realized, yeah,
you probably don't have a whole lot of free time
on your hands. But also you have a family. You know,
you have children. Obviously you have to make time for that.
I know that you do, but balancing that it's got
(09:35):
to be difficult.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
I mean, I don't balance it like this. To me,
this this is fun. This is what I do in
my spare time. Part of who you are, right right,
I mean you eat, breathe, live, sports and news. Right
if you're not at work, you're thinking about it, you're
talking about it, you're doing it. And that's that's kind
of how it is for us. You know, when when
I'm not at work, I'm still working, and I think
(09:59):
you I'm one of those people that are It didn't
matter what I was doing, that's how I was going
to do it. And so you know, I enjoy this,
but it does take sacrifice there. Things have to give,
and so I don't get a chance to watch a
lot of movies and and and hang out and do
some of those things that I used to do. But
that's that's the that's the job, all right.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Last one for you. When you were a kid, I'm
assuming you love sports. Who was your favorite athlete. If
you were playing basketball in the driveway, who did you
pretend to be?
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Or football? Maybe?
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Well, okay, I'm five to none, so go, but I
think you were actually better than me a lot. Anyway,
I'm not I'm not actually five nine. I might be
five eight. But in all, honestly, I don't know if
you remember this guy, you're probably too too young. But
Josh Hashwell, Miguel Montano played for Saint X and he
ended up being the leading receiver the name. He was
(10:49):
the leading receiver in ve L history for yep. So
that's that's who I wanted to be. You know, when
I was a kid watching Santa X games, you know
he's out here making catches, which you know, SANX didn't
throw the ball back then. He's the only person they
ever threw to.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
For like fifteen Say did they ever throw the ball?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Yeah, but he made just been ror throw the ball,
you know in the NFL, right right, and uh so
he made a catch against I think it was male
in a playoff game, fell broke his collar bone, ended
up going on and he was a smaller guy too,
and actually his his younger brothers as an officer for
US right now, okay, And so they were Germantown kids too,
and so I knew some of them growing up as well.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
I know a lot of people can relate to that story,
because not only are you watching somebody play for U
of L, you're watching somebody that went to, say an
next where you probably knew you were going to go.
And it's yeah, to visualize sort of that scenario that
is that is really cool.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Who did he what coach did he play for?
Speaker 2 (11:39):
He played under? I think Schnellenberger and Cooper?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Gotcha? Yeah, gotcha.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Well, I consider and chat with you all day, but
you've got a lot of important things to do, more
important than this. So Chief Humphrey, I appreciate the time.
Hopefully we can do it again sometime soon.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Well, I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Thanks, have a good weekend. That's a LMPD Chief Paul
Humphy joining us here in studio. We got to get
to a quick break. We'll come back with traff Actually,

One hundred percent. And I know you're pretty old up there,

Thirties, late thirties. Yeah, I can't say mid thirties anymore.
People can call me up.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
Yeah, young folks like me. We know who people like
Vinton Boone are.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
So what I enjoy about our conversations that I have
each week with Dwight Mitchell, and of course glad to

Oh my gosh, do you have time to watch movies?
Do you sleep? I can't imagine you can sleep.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
I can't tell you the last movie I watched. I
just started a show.
Speaker 1 (08:43):
I think it's so can I guess maybe maybe a
movie with your kid. That'd be the last time a
movie was on.
Speaker 2 (08:47):
And you were Oh, dude, Honestly, I'm.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
Not surprised now that I think about it.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Yeah, if you turn on a movie, it's it's naptime
for Yeah, I'm following us.
Speaker 3 (08:55):
That's when you get a chance to catch sleep. I guess.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yeah. No, I think the last thing I really watched
was there's a show on Netflix now, Kidnapped.
Speaker 3 (09:01):
It's a British show, okay, and uh, it's binge watch.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
I watched two or three years old. But yeah, uh,
And that's been like three weeks now, and I haven't
gotten gotten back to watching it again yet either.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
I know, I know, I know the feeling. So how
do you balance everything? I mean, I feel like your
job is one that none of us would ever be
able to really know kind of what goes into it.
But as I asked you that question, I realized, yeah,
you probably don't have a whole lot of free time
on your hands. But also you have a family. You know,
you have children. Obviously you have to make time for that.
I know that you do, but balancing that it's got
(09:35):
to be difficult.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
I mean, I don't balance it like this. To me,
this this is fun. This is what I do in
my spare time. Part of who you are, right right,
I mean you eat, breathe, live, sports and news. Right
if you're not at work, you're thinking about it, you're
talking about it, you're doing it. And that's that's kind
of how it is for us. You know, when when
I'm not at work, I'm still working, and I think
(09:59):
you I'm one of those people that are It didn't
matter what I was doing, that's how I was going
to do it. And so you know, I enjoy this,
but it does take sacrifice there. Things have to give,
and so I don't get a chance to watch a
lot of movies and and and hang out and do
some of those things that I used to do. But
that's that's the that's the job, all right.
Speaker 1 (10:19):
Last one for you. When you were a kid, I'm
assuming you love sports. Who was your favorite athlete. If
you were playing basketball in the driveway, who did you
pretend to be?
Speaker 3 (10:27):
Or football? Maybe?
Speaker 2 (10:28):
Well, okay, I'm five to none, so go, but I
think you were actually better than me a lot. Anyway,
I'm not I'm not actually five nine. I might be
five eight. But in all, honestly, I don't know if
you remember this guy, you're probably too too young. But
Josh Hashwell, Miguel Montano played for Saint X and he
ended up being the leading receiver the name. He was
(10:49):
the leading receiver in ve L history for yep. So
that's that's who I wanted to be. You know, when
I was a kid watching Santa X games, you know
he's out here making catches, which you know, SANX didn't
throw the ball back then. He's the only person they
ever threw to.
Speaker 3 (11:03):
For like fifteen Say did they ever throw the ball?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Yeah, but he made just been ror throw the ball,
you know in the NFL, right right, and uh so
he made a catch against I think it was male
in a playoff game, fell broke his collar bone, ended
up going on and he was a smaller guy too,
and actually his his younger brothers as an officer for
US right now, okay, And so they were Germantown kids too,
and so I knew some of them growing up as well.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
I know a lot of people can relate to that story,
because not only are you watching somebody play for U
of L, you're watching somebody that went to, say an
next where you probably knew you were going to go.
And it's yeah, to visualize sort of that scenario that
is that is really cool.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
Who did he what coach did he play for?
Speaker 2 (11:39):
He played under? I think Schnellenberger and Cooper?
Speaker 3 (11:41):
Gotcha? Yeah, gotcha.
Speaker 1 (11:43):
Well, I consider and chat with you all day, but
you've got a lot of important things to do, more
important than this. So Chief Humphrey, I appreciate the time.
Hopefully we can do it again sometime soon.
Speaker 2 (11:51):
Well, I appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
