Throwback; Episode 696: The Fight After The Fight with Ann Carrizales PT. 1

Today we wanted to share an episode from a little while back. We
believe that it provides immense value and there are some new
listeners, so we wanted to re-post it.


On today's episode, Dennis talks with USMC Veteran and Texas Law
Enforcement Officer, Ann Carrizales. Officer Ann Carrizales began
her career in the Military with the United States Marine Corps.
In 1997 Ann made history as she became the first female to
represent the USMC in amateur boxing.  In 1999 she became
the U.S. Women’s National Champion in her weight division and was
ranked #1 in the country. As a Sergeant, Ann attended Leadership
Training at the Marine Corps Institute, served as a Criminal
Investigator and a Field Training Officer, receiving multiple
meritorious awards for superior achievement and performance. In
2010 Ann joined the Stafford Police Department working special
assignments such as FTO, Rape Aggression Defense Instructor,
Police Trainer and worked as a Crisis Negotiator on the East Fort
Bend County Regional SWAT Team.


On October 26, 2013, during a vehicle stop, Officer Carrizales
found herself in a gunfight for her life.  Shot in the face
and chest, Ann was not going to quit.  She shares her story
with us as a role model and inspiration to Law Enforcement
Officers throughout the country. Ann has received the LE Purple
Heart, the Congressional Badge of Bravery, the IAWP Medal of
Valor and many more awards for her heroic acts. 


Ann goes in depth on her story of being in 2 officer involved
shootings, the importance of preparedness, as well as aftermath
of being in an officer involved shooting.
