Tune in here to this ​Monday's edition of Breaking With Brett Jensen!



Breaking Brett Jensen kicks the show off by talking about the packed House Judiciary Committee hearing at the federal courthouse and the emotional atmosphere surrounding it. He shares audio from the powerful testimony of Steve Federico, the father of Logan Federico, who was brutally murdered while visiting friends. Federico’s heartbreaking account highlights the repeated failures of the justice system, as the accused had been arrested 39 times with 25 felonies, yet remained free. Jensen underscores the raw emotion in the room, noting that some audience members reacted throughout the hearing, including protestors who had made their way inside



Also, Mia Alderman, grandmother of Mary Collins, delivered a powerful and emotional statement during the post-hearing media session. She recounted the horrific details of her granddaughter’s murder—stabbed over 130 times, left to bleed out in a bathtub, and hidden in a mattress. Alderman made it clear she was not there for political reasons, but to fight for justice and ensure Mary’s story is not forgotten. Despite suspects being charged, the case has yet to go to trial, and at least one of the accused remains out on bond. Her message was firm and heartfelt: “Mary matters.”



Later, Jensen is joined by Congressman Pat Harrigan for an exclusive one-on-one interview to discuss the devastating rise in violent crime and the justice system failures that have allowed repeat offenders to remain on the streets. Harrigan reflects on the brutal murder of Iryna Zarutska in Charlotte, sharing how deeply it affected him as a father of two young daughters. He draws a direct connection between failed policies—particularly cashless bail—and preventable tragedies like the murders of Zarutska and Logan Federico. Harrigan criticizes a system that prioritizes criminals over victims and outlines how the federal government can respond, including using the power of the purse to pressure states into reform. He also responds to emotional testimony from victims’ families and highlights the need for real accountability.
