President Trump’s decision to take control of the California National Guard and deploy troops onto the streets of Los Angeles sparked intense backlash and raised serious questions about the limits of presidential power. California officials accused him of escalating tensions rather than easing them.

Elkhart's Wolverines: When Protectors Become Predators

Elkhart, Indiana — a city of nearly 60,000 residents, with Black citizens making up just 12% of the population — ranks fifth in the nation for exonerations per capita. Since 2006, six men have been wrongfully convicted and later exonerated in Elkhart; four of them were Black. At the center of these cases is a group of corrupt, abusive police officers known by some as the “Wolverines.” Instead of serving and protecting, they used their power to intimidate, fabricate, and destroy lives — leaving behind a trail of injustice and millions in legal settlements. In this episode, we dive into The IndyStar’s explosive exposé, name the officers accused of misconduct, and share the powerful stories of those they hurt — and those who witnessed it all.
