Description

Deputy Shot Miracle Needed after Shot 5 Times. Special Episode. Extraordinary special episode as we recount the harrowing journey of Sheriff's Sergeant David James from the Richmond County Sheriff's Office in Augusta, Georgia. His life took an unexpected twist when he faced a life-threatening ambush, enduring five gunshot wounds from a 16-year-old assailant.
David's remarkable story begins with the loss of one eye, severe vision impairment in the other, and a series of other injuries that changed the course of his life. Additionally, he developed kidney failure, a medical challenge that would significantly shape his future. His first kidney transplant, though life-saving, regrettably failed after a few years.
However, it was under the most miraculous and heroic circumstances that David received a second chance at life through a kidney transplant. The accidental death of a fellow east-Georgia sheriff's deputy, Deputy Eric Sikes, paved the way for David's life-saving organ transplant. Deputy Sikes, who tragically lost his life in a car accident, became an organ donor, and his kidney gave David the gift of renewed hope and health. Deputy Shot Miracle Needed after Shot 5 Times. Special Episode
In this episode, David James reflects on his journey to recovery and his unwavering mission to assist fellow first responders facing similar challenges. His resilience and the miraculous events that unfolded demonstrate the profound impact of organ donation, heroism, and the incredible strength of the human spirit.

The Law Enforcement Talk Show goes to radio first. Therefore it is required that I use a clock for the length of segments. You've probably seen on television news interviews that they have a hard break. It's the same with radio. The stations have to be able to program in their commercials, news, weather, traffic reports etc. These are called avails, they are NOT Optional. Every guest knows about and is informed of the length of the segments and that I will interrupt them if needed to go to the break. The interviews are recorded and the guests know that the segments must be in a certain length and it is required and they get to tell their stories to millions of people for free.
