Every parent should listen to this podcast. I just sent links to both my goddaughters with young children. They think Aunt Mary worries too much about crime/safety and I think they are way too naive about the world. I hope they listen in particular to the part about grooming and talking sex with your kids from the start. I love you Jerri, please don’t stop bringing these amazing stories by retired agents to us.
Thank you, Mary Ann! We must be serious about the safety our most precious children.

Amazing interview, Jerri!
Jim really knows his stuff! — Jerri
Another great podcast with Jim Clemente. Very interesting and hopefully will never have to use his information. But realize how important Amber Alerts are and how quickly children must be found.
Thank you. It was certainly a valuable episode.
