In this powerful episode of Truth Behind the Badge, we sat down with former Police Sergeant Sarah Patterson, who shared her deeply personal journey through betrayal, resilience, and the painful reality many officers never expect, but find out about if it happens to them or someone close.
Rather than focus on the specifics of her case, we asked Sarah to open up about the silence from leadership, the absence of support from peers, and the hard truth about how quickly the so-called brotherhood and sisterhood can fade. Her story is not about bitterness. It's about survival. It’s about refusing to let the job define your worth, your life, or your future.
Together, we talk about the importance of standing up for what’s right, even when it costs you so much. We talk about the strength it takes to keep going when the uniform is taken but your heart still beats for service. And we remind anyone listening who may be struggling, you are not alone.
This episode is hosted by the Team South Florida Law Enforcement Charity and sponsored by Warrior Spirit Health and Wellness. We have seen what silence and isolation can do. That's why we speak up. That’s why we created this space.
