Topic: Police Jargon

An eyewitness account of the Aurora shooting is scrutinized for its use of specific technical language, such as "casualties" and "10-24" location codes. The witness describes a man propping open an emergency door and signaling someone during the movie trailers. The hosts question the validity of the testimony, suggesting the witness sounds like an intelligence plant or a trained professional.

A man in Spokane Valley caused a bomb scare by strapping household items to his chest with duct tape, leading to a police standoff. The incident is notable for the arresting officer's use of the phrase "divorced him from the item" to describe removing the fake bomb. The hosts mock the use of such pseudo-sophisticated jargon by law enforcement during routine mental health crises.
