Episode 22: That's So Broward

Tina and Hillary cover former Custer County Sheriff Michael Burgess and former Broward County Sheriff Nick Navarro.

Tina's Story
Mike Burgess earned the voters trust three times and served as sheriff of Custer County for 15 years. But, when allegations surface that Burgess forced inmates and drug court defendants to engage in sexual activity, Custer County sheriff takes his last stand, and like the county’s namesake, is utterly destroyed.

Hillary's Story
Nick Narvarro grew the Broward’s Sheriff’s Office in his tenure and many police agencies nationwide turned to his expertise. But, when he decided to battle with the legendary rap group 2 Live Crew, Navarro only managed to highlight his own ridiculous exploits and antics.
