Is insurance for concealed weapon carriers legitimate, or a scam?

Phoenix, AZ—You see the heavy internet advertising for insurance to protect you, should you be charged with a crime in a self-defense shooting. Is this too good to be true? You won’t like the answer!

All of these insurance contracts are carefully crafted to give these companies, in the fine print, an out, for the slightest excuse. The decisions are not made by insurance company lawyers, but by their bean counters. They may cover you or not.

The lawyers employed by the insurance companies on the cheap may not be qualified to handle these types of cases. They’re not going to immediately employ a qualified licensed investigator to locate needed video, evidence or witnesses. If that happens at all, it will be too late to help you. Frankly, you’d probably get better representation by the public defender. They have poor resources and lack needed assets however they do have lots of experience.

I’d say skip the crap insurance and make other arrangements. After a shooting you or your family must immediately locate a licensed private investigator to get right out and search for evidence and interview witnesses. That is before they all disappear. Call and get a recommendation for your PI from a certified criminal defense lawyer. That‘s even if you can’t hire that lawyer and you’re stuck with a public defender.

watch out for the publicity-hound lawyers with the “big names” because they almost always they care about their TV face time more than their clients interests. Their actual work is too often, ineffective.

Bail is a huge issue. You would be well advised to cut a written agreement in advance for bail insurance should you be arrested for any use of force matters. Most people post bail and then are unable to hire a decent criminal lawyer.

My best advice to you is to avoid conflicts and to only employ deadly force when there’s no other option. Why risk your life, liberty and assets doing otherwise?

A 40 Caliber Nightmare Is Caught On Tape.

So you’re confident that that .40 caliber S&W service round will keep you safe. Maybe you’ll have second thoughts after you see this video. One hot summer night in 1994 Tempe and Mesa Arizona police were involved in a pursuit with this suspect who ran into a stranger’s apartment to hide after being shot TWICE in the chest. He was shirtless and you can see the blood pumping out of those two wounds. What’s really frightening is just how agile this fellow is as he struts to the ambulance. If he was not handcuffed and had a knife or a gun, ask yourself if he could still hurt you, your partner or a hostage? If your jurisdiction demands that officers carry either the 9MM or the .40 Caliber S&W it’s time to show this video to your bosses and lobby to have the .45 ACP round authorized. The switch may well reduce the screaming by self-appointed community activists about how many rounds police had to use on a suspect. The really talented and courageous video journalist, Karen Ke...

The origin of the feature film, COME FRIDAY…

CLick On the pictures to see full size versions. Long ago there was a young lady I had the hots for in a big way (Yes, I know that hots is not a word). She was pretty, incredibly bright, and had some real elegance about her. She had a love for children and basic kindness that you don’t often see in someone her age. I met her parents and could understand she came from a much more stable home than mine. I was raised by a single, welfare mom and suddenly found myself way out-classed. For whatever reasons things did not workout they way I had hoped. Sadly for me, we went on our separate ways. From time to time I’d run into this lady in various places where our job had taken us. Whenever this happened my heart would skip a beat or two. I left my hometown Chicago, and moved to Arizona where I founded my detective agency. As a private eye and soon a TV news producer too, my career took me to the highest profile criminal events in Arizona and throughout the country. There’s no question that ...
