We are hoping to develop content outside being a repository of links regarding the podcast. We're open to suggestions, but we are looking at have links to law enforcement agencies among other things on the home page.

But, wait, there is more.

We'd like to give any of our law official types the opportunity to say hi to JD using the handy button over here to the right. If you have a microphone attached to your computer, follow the simple instructions and JD will have the sound file before you know it. This is also a great way to ask JD questions like "What does 10-8 mean?" "What is of higher rank--a captain or a detective?" or "What's the best burglar alarm for my home?"
