Good morning, everybody. Welcome to The David Samorano Show here on Live The Dream Media Network. I'm excited for today's guest. We're jumping, we're doing a national show today. We're bringing on a guest from the East Coast, and it is going to be a great learning experience. I'm excited to bring on Officer Jesse Main of the York County Regional Police Department in Pennsylvania, and his four-legged partner, K9 Tango. Tango is an electronic storage detection dog, trained to sniff out hidden digital devices like thumb drives, SD cards, phones, and hard drives that can hold critical evidence in human trafficking and child sexual abuse material cases. Working alongside the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, Officer Main and Tango help investigators uncover what others might miss bringing offenders to justice and protecting the most vulnerable among us. So Officer Jesse Main and I met in Washington DC when I was there for a conference with the Crime Stoppers Organization, ADA Crime that I volunteer on the board.

I saw this presentation, I said, you know what, we need to get this on one of our shows because I did not know that the dogs being trained for this, they even existed. I mean, it's really, really cool. I've always heard of dogs that can find like, you know, explosive devices and other things, drugs and whatnot. But when it comes to storage devices, I thought it was a trip and, you know, Officer Main is going to get into how Tango was trained, who he was trained by and how he picks up on, Officer Tango picks up on these storage devices. So it's going to be great. Before we get into that, we got to talk about this win. So I'm driving down Old Father on the way here to the studio, and I noticed in the road roofing shingles. So somebody is going to need some roof work and blueprint home services, blueprint roofing and solar is a great option. Daniel Romero, he's one of our neighbors here in the complex, he's one of our advertisers. So if you're listening or watching and you know your roof is taking a beating with these wins, by all means, contact Daniel and his team.

I don't know if I've ever seen wind that's just sustained a beating.

So last night after I got home from the pumpkin patch, I went in the backyard and I started securing all the stuff that we have that could fly around because I had started seeing the news post about this pretty often and I'm like, okay, this is going to be legit. Like it's, I think this is going to be the real deal. And they weren't kidding. I mean, it is so windy outside. You can barely see anything. Trees are whipping around.

I've heard stuff flying by the house. You know, maybe people's trampolines and whatever else they didn't secure. I have heard stuff banging and flying around. And every time I look, I'm like, was that ours? So bad. So it started about like four in the morning. I started hearing all these noises and I'm looking out and it's dark. And so I can't really see anything, but I can hear stuff flying. So I went downstairs to make sure that none of the stuff I had thought I secured was flying away. And it appeared to be it appeared to be good. So be careful out there. If you're if you're traveling, I can't imagine what the freeways look like right now, especially going up to Phoenix and just be cautious about what's going on. High profile vehicle vehicles, that's always that's always a challenge. So really pay attention to what's going on. I can't wait to jump into some of these news stories I have after the interview with Jesse Main. I've got a couple I really want to talk about. Some of them, you know, they're they're just funny. And again, the news, the news that's not really news, you know, I get it. Some people send stuff in and they're like, hey, can you can you give this thing some airtime? Or whatever it may be.

It's yeah, it's going to be on that link, Tony. Sorry, I sent him that link right there. He'll be popping in shortly.

The news stories just kind of blow me away. And I think you're going to go, what in the heck? You got to spin them all with humor, though, because that's the only only way to get through. But hey, you know, during the interview today with Officer Main, if you find yourself wanting to ask questions about the dog and some other stuff, by all means, ask away. You know, this is an opportunity that I also get, because during the conference, you know, you get the presentation of what he has time for. So I think it was only maybe half an hour, an hour. And he had Tango with him, and he showed us Officer Tango working. But we're here to learn on this one for sure. So once Officer Main gets in here, we will bring him on. In the meantime, we will jump to one of these stories that is just related to, you know, we were talking about, I was at the Crime Software Conference. So a reward of up to $4,000 is being offered for information that could help solve a Tucson homicide from more than a decade ago. Tucson police say Isvaldo Raul Vargas was shot outside of his house near 19th Street and 10th Avenue in January of 2014 Investigators say a dark colored SUV similar to a Dodge Durango or Chevy Blazer drove toward him and fired multiple shots. Vargas died from his injuries several days later. Anyone with information is asked to call 88 crime or you can remain anonymous. So I encourage you, if you have any information on that case, please reach out. It's a cold case from 2014 and, you know, solving, solving, giving closure to families and stuff is important. Now, I see Officer Main has joined us here on the show. And without further ado, let's turn it over to Officer Main from the York County Regional Police Department. How are you doing this morning, Jesse? Hey, Dave.
