161: Osean McLintock - Struggle

Listener, this episode takes a sharp look into the fatal police encounter with 26-year-old Ocean McClintock, a man caught between chronic physical pain and spiraling mental health issues. You’ll hear the tense escalation from a single 911 call to the moment a vulnerable suspect is shot inside a patrol car, and the host questions whether this tragedy was truly inevitable. We explore conflicting perspectives—both pro-police and anti-police—to show the complexity of a system that sometimes fails those who need help most.
