From overwhelming cyber-tip backlogs and painstaking investigations to the emotional toll of confronting the darkest corners of human behavior. Pete shares how Alicia’s Law helped provide the resources that made these investigations possible, the creation of Kenosha’s dedicated ICAC unit, and his work alongside electronics detection K9 Iris. It’s a candid conversation about protecting children, finding purpose in difficult work, and learning when it’s finally okay to step away and begin the next chapter.
