Veteran LEO here. I’ll save my comments on the numerous violations of this man’s constitutional rights and just encourage those who are also outraged to do something tangible to support Mike. I’ll head over to Fieldcraft Survival now to purchase something whether I need it or not. Mike deserves the moral and practical support.
@@dorjedriftwood2731 This is definitely the issue. As to how to make the necessary changes, there are many different ideas; I’ve heard most of them and have voiced my own opinions. My thought here in this particular incident is simply to help a brother victimized by a broken and corrupt system. The debates as to how to change the system will continue.
Couldn't agree 💯 more, Raymond! Absolutely love Mike...I enjoy him keeping our minds on track in these crazy times! My best to your Fam, and thanks for YOUR Service, Raymond! 🇺🇲🗽🇺🇲🎗️🇺🇲💪🇺🇲
Hey Andy, thank you for giving Mike the opportunity to say for himself what went down and what is going on. Also, thank you for encouraging people to not jump to conclusions based on initial and potentially inaccurate information. I'm glad Mike has friends like you to help him navigate through this. Sometimes the most important information, advice, reminders, etc, come from those moments of friends being friends.
This is hard to watch. I’m basically going through the same thing. My daughter is 2 years old, she was 20mo at the time. Wife had a post pardon episode. I spend the night in jail. Next day wife recants. 1 month later they take our children on April 1st. 2 months later my charges are dismissed. 3.5 months later and we just got our 14yr old twins back with our 10yr old son and 2 yr old daughter still in kinship care. This is the hardest thing I have ever been through in my life and that says a lot. I don’t know what my wife and I would’ve done without being able to support each other. Thank God there was no protective order. I really feel for you Mike, for your not being able to have contact with your wife for so long and be able to support each other. I will keep your family in my prayers. Something must be done about this corrupt system.
Hang in there, bro I’m in the same boat, God is good, I know it’s hard because it’s on his time, I just try to push the fight every day and every area that I can, take care of yourself. I’ve had 11 shots in my neck in this last year to reset my nervous systeminfections in the prosthetic in my groin all of this from stress and where the scar tissue is in my brain it doesn’t register so by the time I figure that out usually too late
I have 3 kids and a wife. Post partam depression or “baby blues” is a very real problem. My wife didn’t quite have “depression” but she definitely had baby blues. She was anxious and nervous and paranoid all the time. Worried about various things that were completely illogical. that lasted.. 2-3 months and it just stopped randomly and all her fears and paranoia just went away. Her hormones were up and down, emotions going up and down all that stuff. Now she’s literally perfectly balanced. Not on any meds.
It usually ends ok, but it's worth taking seriously and seeking help for because you never know where it may end. We had a case some years ago in my small town where a pediatrician went into a full blown psychosis, ending up cutting her baby's throat and her own. She survived because her husband managed to stop her before she cut all the way.
Man I retired from being a cop and one thing I can tell you is never stay with a woman that called the cops on you ..they have bad intentions and it never ends good. They will ruin you man if your still trying to work and do something in life. I will say this I can’t remember one case where a domestic case actually led to a divorce, most stay until a few more things happen. -- Remember this post if you go back the next time she jumps and makes a allegation you will probably do a year or so.
If You have Done Nothing But Yet Your Spouse whether Man or Women That Person Has Absolutely Hate For You. Nothing Good Would Come out of This. Your Clearance is Gone, Your Name Is Absolutely Tainted And Don’t Think It’s Not Ever. Keep Everyone Close to You and Your Friends Closer. San Bernardino is Where I was Born.
As a woman, with a past of dating a couple really unstable and sometimes scary dudes in possessive, tumultuous relationships... there was never a single day that the thought even entered my mind to call the cops. (Granted, none ever laid a hand on me- but threatening my pet's life verbally, wall punching, their own spiteful phone smashing, etc....he's actually a GB now, lol. 😅) Maybe I'm just old school Gen X from NYC and have this ingrained idea of only calling the cops if it were an extreme emergency, lol. But still- never a thought. Not out of spite. Not to win a fight. None of that. I avoid them, but I have known a couple of women who are the type to use law enforcement or other forms of authority in a vindictive way and it turns my stomach. Definitely a huge red flag, even if someone has mental health issues. Hell, I've had a couple BPD exes. It's no fun and no excuse when it starts affecting one's life in such potentially permanent ways- especially their children's lives. That calls for heavy evaluation.
(And to note- I'm no DV apologist either, nor do I recommend *never* calling the cops, as there is a healthy spectrum for such a resource. I lost a friend brutally to DV.)
Now…all the folks who made videos and posts shitting on Mike Glover…all the sponsors who “distanced themselves” from Mike Glover and Fieldcraft Survival…ALL of you owe this man an apology. Keep your head up Mike. Thank you Andy for having this platform and letting Mike clear the air.
Don't worry Mike we got your back there's tons of us out here who stood by and didn't jump to conclusions including people like myself who have been buying things from you for years, not a lot (I'm poor I still haven't been able to attend any of your training classes), and are American Contingency members like myself who joined two weeks after you formed it. We all know you're a stand-up guy and even when things get real rough in life guys like you are the ones who maintain stability and persevere. This is an example for all of us. I also appreciate Andy for interviewing you on the subject matter. Hopefully one day I can get out to FCS headquarters or out in Montana to the BRCC coffee house that Andy has and maybe shake hands with one or both of you.
Hopefully Mike takes this opportunity to realize that police violating the rights of citizens has been happening since forever. Nobody gives a shit when it's a poor person without influence.
20 years ago I almost lost the rights to my 2 kids because my soon to be ex-wife at the time accused me hitting her. 11k later the judge dismissed it because in court my attorney got her to admit she lied and she was the abuser. I would have lost my children, my security clearance and my job. Child protective services git involved and i had to have observed play time with my kids and was court ordered to take a psych evaluation. I was fighting for my life. 20 years later, my kids love me and have almost nothing to do with their mom.
Mike, when I was 10 my sister who was a nurse in the Navy was very brutally murdered at a gas station 9 miles from our house. It was very publicized, and we had news crews that camped out in front of our house for weeks. The trial took a year to finally be over, we were at the courthouse at least once a week with our parents because they didn't want us to be alone and they didn't trust hardly anyone at that point. A few days before the last part of the trial one of the bailiffs at the courthouse that we talked to a lot, told me that "occasionally there's justice, but usually it's just us" It's been almost 40 years since she was killed and I very rarely see any justice when it comes to our court system. The system is corrupt and money is the only thing that they care about. Good luck getting through this. At the end of the day it really is just us.
I'm all for working things out but what the hell did she tell the police and why over a little relationship spat?? Staying with someone that did that is like having the sword of Damocles hanging over you every minute.
I'm guessing Mike won't see this, but if I was his friend the best advice I could offer him would be to seriously consider his relationship with Jess. I know the police fucked this up. But none of this happens if she was conducting herself in a reasonable manner, especially the fact she got the police involved. Ofcourse she may not be 100% mentally right now but sometimes love or even the fact someone is a parent to your children is not worth the gamble of sinking your own ship. I can only hope someone has had this conversion with him. I wish him all the best.
It’s going to happen again, guaranteed. Once she knows she can control your freedom with the use of law enforcement, she’ll never give up that control.
This is wisdom right here. A good woman can save you, the wrong one can doom you. I am not saying Jess is bad, but clearly, there are issues going on with her that could eventually sink Mike with her. I have seen many good men brought down by this.
A friend of mine from the military and before got a "wellness" check from the local PD. The VA said he needed to be checked on because he was irritated when he left their office. Irritated. So, the police treated it like a felony stop, pointed guns at him, made him sit on the pavement like a dog, and then talked down to him for about an hour. It did wonders for his PTSD and his trust in the VA.
@@johnqpublic2718 yes they have been. Yet, when asked, hey man what happened? Said man continues to recount the actual event for 4 out of 90 minutes, which covered more about how that effed judicial system mishandled him and the case. Rather than what actually happened, man.
Sadly, Mike, our country neither appreciates their soldiers nor does much to help us. The legal system sees us as a threat for the skills we have. DCFS always has a hard time placing kids from crack houses but when they find well adjusted kids they are easier to place and helps the DCFS improve their statistical outcomes. I walked that fine line once and the answer is to find an Ombudsman who will look at this case. My situation was living in a house that was contaminated with lead paint. I moved to a different part of the state and they still fought to try and take my child. They lost. I know you will never give up on your family. You have great friends. (I haven't bought enough BRCC for Evan to come bail me out) In time this will pass. Seek out what you need. Andy, thank you for providing the level headed space Mike needs. It's the thing that makes your channel so special. Keep doing what you are doing. You both are appreciated.
@@kiritosao2661 nobody cares if you’re a vet. It’s not a get out of jail card. I agree with Mike the DCSS is Or CPS is way out of pocket when it comes to their power in the legal system.
As a combat vet I can 100% vouch for this. I had honorably discharged back in 2012. Ended up crossing hairs with the judicial system 2 weeks after arriving back to my birth town in southern WV. I won’t get into details but my case should have 1000% been a misdemeanor and I was willing to plead to a misdemeanor and even go to jail if they wanted me to. They absolutely refused and demanded the felony conviction over the most petty bullshit that did not involve any violence and no sex nor domestic etc. I should have went to trial but they told me if I go to trial and found guilty they will give me more time than if I just plead to the felony. Well I go and look up how many trials I’m this specific area are found guilty? It was like 98% So i was like well damn even tho I know what I did was not and should not have been a felony what choice do I have? I even tried this drug court program where I was the only one in there who ever even worked for a living and should have never even been put in there. They intentionally sabotaged me and demanded I do shit they knew I was not physically capable of doing I’m a disabled veteran with serious back issues and they knew this when I signed up. I wasted 9 excruciating months of my life doing that shit all for nothing. They wanted that felony charge to disarm me is what it is. Most don’t understand these lawyers have been extremely indoctrinated and their vision of war fighters is not good at all
Also want to add I’m an honorable man if I thought for a second what I did was worthy of disarming me and taking away my fundamental rights for something I did while I was simply not in my right mind going through a divorce just getting out of 6 years active army, just getting out of 3 inpatient 30 day psych stints I would happily plead guilty to a felony serve my time like a man and live on. If I were to die today and were through a process where I was asked what was the most corruption you seen during your life? It would 100% be the judicial system
@@OG-Ghost33 I'm not a veteran, yet I emphasize with your experience. The judicial system is a mess and I'm having to deal with it again, due to my ex of a 30y marriage that never pays my alimony on time (deliberately), allows his GF (whom he moved in 5 mo. on the same farm where we lived, allowed her to forge checks on OUR joint account, not to mention the family farm corporation account. First time I filed on him for contempt (he was 2 months late, even missing a month previously- the judge refused to LOOK at the dates of the payments and dismissed the case. Now I'm building a hopefully rock solid case against him AND his karma is biting him in the ass- since his last parent passed this year, he and his siblings are all fighting over the family farm, an "outside" attorney had to be appointed as executor and I have solid reason to believe all his financial AND his sisters financial manipulation over their aging mother who had dementia is being investigated. Believe me when I say it's not only MEN who get thrown under the bus, I was thrown under a few and I did NOTHING other than expose a financial institution and the fact they hid almost half a mil in loans he was borrowing from me. Yes, he and that rotten bank literally threw me out in the street. I was 65 and had NO where to go because he lied to both his attorneys to get me forced out of my home. He told each lawyer I was living on one farm (which I did not) and the other that I was in the house we both owned and he had a home that I paid (made sure was paid) for 25 years 2x a month and paid off. Total scumbag, but what goes around, comes around and I'm hearing interesting things these days.
Mike - Take it from a retired LEO - Do not talk with law enforcement. At all. Ever. They are not trying to help you despite the BS they might gice you about giving your side, helping yourself, clearing things up, etc. Today's law enforcement does not do business like the cops of old. No discretion or judgment. Tough lesson. Sorry.
Same advice to a Law School class from a veteran detective & law prof. They quickly “convicted” trusting students because students were eager to help and their answers got twisted to convict them. The never smiling detective said “Never” answer any Qs from a policeman. Who wudda thought it?
Listen, no matter what most of us aren't going anywhere Mike. I have been watching your content for years, and guys like you are heroes to guys like me. I joined the Marine Corps because I grew up watching your generation at war, and I wanted to be a part of it, I wanted to contribute. And again, guys like you and Andy are the best kind of people. And you will always have my support. Almost 7 years strong in the Marine Corps. God Bless you and your families. Keep up the good work, good things come to good people. Just keep faith.
I agree! I'm just an over the hill mom and wife but Mike was 1 of the first YT channels I started watching to learn how to be more prepared for a crisis, to protect myself, ect. I'm not a spring chicken and liked the lack of arrogance. This makes me angry that there are so many criminals running around and some cops are doing this?
@@Sam_Iamknotno potatoe, he is right. Men are not supposed to have sex like gengis khan. You are supposed to get married and have seggs with one woman: just one.
Nobody, no single organization should have that much power to be able to force your arm like that….”yeah, either do what I tell you or I’ll take your kids”. Damn Mike, I’m sorry brother.
History has proven that DPS/CPS does more harm than good. Part of the issue is their budget is based on caseload, and judges get kickbacks from these cases.
@@thedi9438 If they were "civil" trials they would have juries. But they're in family dependency court which only has judges who may be appointed by a governor and they're not 6 of your peers deciding but one person who works with CPS lawyers all day. I wonder if Mike fought the case, not agreeing to any anger classes, and his wife testified for him if an acquittal would help more with CPS than any slight admission.
For all the people who made click bait videos and made messed up comments about your situation, there's a helluva lot more who didn't comment in a positive manner for whatever reason. Point is not everybody believed it and know your a good Man. In the near future, I hope your able to drown out the negative crap and know there are far more people who hold you iin a positive light rather than a negative one. Thank you for all you guys do and continue to do. God Bless 🙏🙏
After all of the good Mike has done for this country and is still doing, people are just going to turn their backs on him before all the facts are out. Thanks Andy for bringing Mike's story to us. The truth is what we need and must prevail.
Won’t happen. Those idiots refuse to apologize because they simply can’t be wrong. Fortunately, I wasn’t subbed to any of the channels that talked shit about Mike and after the news came out that the charges were dropped, fucking crickets. Inferior people saying inferior things. Yes, if you criticized Mike without actual facts, you’re not only inferior, but you should probably ride the sewer slide because you’re not worthy.
Exactly man. Shit was beyond belief. And if you tried to shut them down in the comments, you were a no good mf. It’s crazy what people will do for clout these days.
I'm a criminal defense attorney and what you said about not jumping to judgements and conclusions is something I've been saying for years but with little success. I see it during voir dire and it's so disappointing. No matter what the law and constitution and plain common sense says about prejudging folks, it happens daily especially in a criminal case. Folks are eager to believe the worst even before any evidence is presented.
@@thomasdailey4580 Yours is on odd and hostile comment. Not sure why. I did see the video. Did you? Did you miss the part re. what can at best be deemed misdo conduct was charged as felony conduct? Did you miss the part where law enforcement threatened to deploy and did deploy CPS notwithstanding any evidence of abuse or neglect? Maybe you missed the part where the DA resolved the alleged felony for a plea in abeyance/continuance for dismissal? Seems you have an axe to grind. Perhaps you should voice your animus instead of this passive aggressive conduct? Be well.
When you eventually run for political office. Remember your experience in jail. You can work towards major reforms in the judicial system. We owe it to those wrongly imprisoned and treated by the system.
"Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." You can not convince a broken and corrupt system to "fix" itself.
my wife had post childbirth depression.. she pulled out of it eventually, but during, I didnt know who she was!. she behaved in ways i had never seen before it was crazy. guys.. this is a real thing to be aware of.
Yup. It’s a real thing. I went through this myself. Not to this degree but it ended in divorce. A year and a half later she wanted to reconcile but I had had enough of the crazy $hit and went on down the road. Good luck Mike! Gods speed my friend.
Yes. Postpartum hormones are no joke at all. Women go through a lot in that period of time and can do some unbelievable things. I think society should be a little easier on them. For example: the cops could be looking at the big picture here and realize that this may have been a woman going through a tough time and doing some extreme things. The whole “reddit” and social media comment culture is so unforgiving and immediately likes to demonize
I understand the rage and anger that Mike has over his case. Gotta admit I'm a little nervous for him to be on the internet right now. His passion could be misinterpreted. Pray this all gets worked out.
This social media post is a bad idea on Mikes part imo. It might be helpful for his image in business, but not good considering it’s still an open case. *anything you say can and WILL be used against you. I’m sure there’s people out there that will try their hardest to use this against him!
Mike, I had a VERY similar incident up in Pocatello a few years ago. There is nothing as humiliating or disturbing after a lifetime of serving God, Family, and Country. Thanks for sharing your story. We need to be diligent in watching every action- because if we don't someone will.
What a nightmare. Ive been in similar situations. We have actual criminals running the streets and causing harm, but cops can't do anything about it. When a regular, law abiding citizen has an interaction with LE, it gets CRAZY! The justice system plays by its own rules, and its terrifying.
Bothers, I’ve been there and everything Mike went through is 100% what the system will do to you as a man with a single allegation. Mike, 100% on your side and sending you prayers and gratefulness that the machine didn’t swallow you. Always fight. Fight, fight, fight.
I also spent a night in jail…my sister in law was helping me pick up my son before any custody orders were in place. His mom was messed up on pills…my sister in law was leaving with my son and I was getting in another car…sons mom jumped on my and tried clawing me. I pushed her back to get the door shut. I admitted to pushing her back. The cops said unfortunately I admitted to putting my hands on her in a domestic. They had no choice but to take me for the night. I ended up with full custody and she later passed away. Hardest thing I’ve ever been through. And I’ve been through some things. Prayers for the Glover family.
I’m praying for you Michael. You’re a good man. Follow your heart and pray. Your family is important your business will all come back. Best of luck and God bless you and your family
I am so sorry this happened to your and your family MG. Not only are you guys my source for inspiration and motivation but also because you guys offer the only reliable content out there. You guys are also human and deserve to live your private life.
Post Partum Depression is no joke. I had it when I had our two girls, 92 / 96, while married to a Law Enforcement Officer, 34 years and running. I got myself help right away. That's the ticket is to release control of "I'm ok" cause your not and get help. DSS got in the way when I asked for help, from a doctor, with our daughter who had Epliepsy and was acting out. I immediately got a lawyer and they backed down. Bottom like folks Mr. /Mrs. Glover have alot going on. Three kid, a business, her mental health and Mr. Glover's plausible PTSD. Mike I'm 20 years of therapy and still going. It's only benefitted my family as a whole. I pray hard that Mrs. G gets help and some serious soul searching goes on.v
Mike, I feel for you man. You probably won't see this but I've got a light hearted story to share to hopefully lift your spirits. In 2017, two years after moving to Ft Lauderdale, I got pulled over by the police. Unlike you, I was responsible for all the punishment I ever received so I assumed it was something I'd forgotten about but that was still within the statute of limitations. The officers were very courteous but informed me that I had a warrant from 1988. The warrant stated that a man with my name fled from Broward County Sherriff deputies on the intercoastal in a speedboat. Fighting back a grin, I informed that officers that I was only three years old in 1988. I know they were embarrassed for the oversight but we all shared a laugh and they sent me on my way. Your positive attitude and work ethic has inspired me to continue to improve my life in increments, so of course I'd like to thank you.
Andy, Thank you for providing your platform to Mike. Looking forward to your next interview with a man we all admire and respect. Shame on what child protective thugs did to a combat veteran and successful businessman and podcaster. God bless Mike and future endeavors to get justice.
Love Mike but Andy getting his black belt in 4 years is insane. Hes humble but truly an exceptional dude. He always downplays it but tier 1 dudes really are something special
Sadly the things that happened to Mike happen to people everyday. People of Mike's calibre very rarely have to be subjected to the system, but this unfortunately is the norm.
Andy thanks for giving Mike this chance. Mike you hang in there and fight to get your world back. Someone once told me that prayer is not the least we can do it is the most we can do. I have been praying for you and will continue to do so.
Been there. Exactly why I had absolutely no judgement of Mike's situation. I understand what it's like to be harshly judged for something I didn't do. Good on you mike.
Not sure about the current PD, but when I lived in Provo their police did not have a stellar reputation to say the least. Wish I could say I was surprised about all of this.
Ok so it's ok to break a women's wrist bc she possibly popped one of his child's on the mouth or disciplined them in a way he did not like. Look step parents can be evil but WTF breaking the wrist really come on guy. "I will continue to support mike"
I spent enough time in jail during my youth that I lost all of my faith in the justice system. As soon as the system believes you are the bad guy, all the rights and rules of society are out the door. They will destroy you just to maintain their conviction rate. I was a mentally disturbed kid and they were willing to throw me away like garbage. I've turned my life around since then, and I'm a good person that people like and respect. I have two kids, a wife, and a bevy of friends that turn to me when they need help. I've become the reliable one that people depend on. None of that ever would have happened if the "Justice System" had it's way. In fact, I'd just now be getting out of prison.
Mr Glover it’s infuriating to know what you’re going through thanks to Provos finest! I, as an American, appreciate your service, your entrepreneurial spirit, and fighting back! Keep your head up and continue the good fight. I hope you and your family pull through this. My hope is Provo pays for an even better inheritance for your kids, because they all deserve it, ALL OF THEM! I’m very pro law enforcement and extremely anti crooked law enforcement.
@@adonisstroke4323 nobody said now. All law enforcement is not crooked but there are bad apples everywhere, in every industry, in all walks of life. Unfortunately it’s the bad ones who stand out and tend to get the focus. Mr Glover just happens to have the means and platform to bring to light his situation. And Mr Glover deserves some respect for the sacrifices he made for Americans/our country. What’s infuriating is to know “innocent until proven guilty” doesn’t always work out as it should because someone is on a power trip. Maybe, just possibly, certain people should not be in a position giving them the rights to ruin someone else’s life for their personal agenda.
Have watched Mike for years,believe in him,haven't really participated in the brand,now feildcraft is about to have a new customer, Hang in there Mike...
@@Mr._Infamous I said a victim of the situation. So were the kids and so was his wife to an extent (for not getting the help she needed sooner). But he didn't show any signs of being a domestic abuser leading up to this point and he didn't break her wrist during whatever the altercation was. So what was he guilty of?
@@Mr._Infamous What is he supposed to take accountability for? What is he guilty of? We shouldn't put anyone on a pedestal, because everyone is fallible. It makes it easier when stuff that you don't agree with comes out and you don't have such a visceral reaction and you can look at it more objectively.
Can't even lie dude... kinda glad mike gets to see behind the curtain into what police and corrupt people in power can do to you.. they can flip your life upside down without even sending you to prison... it's incredibly sad
This is a sad situation and so many people go through this same scenario. Mike is shining a light on how bad it actually is for people in family court.
Everybody needs an Andy Stumpf as a real friend in life. Mike, I am so glad the criminal aspect was sorted out. After 30 years in LE, I know how jacked up DCFS can be. I wish you the best in your battle. I hope you have the assets and stamina to fight that beast.
My hat goes off to Mike for handling this situation with as much grace & dignity as possible. Our justice system is so skewed against men, that as a mother, stepmother & grandmother to yoing men, it terrifies me.
Thank you Andy for giving Mike this opportunity.He and his family have been through so much . I pray that he can get back on track and be healthy for him and his beautiful children. I couldn’t believe that anyone took this and ran with it . Mike has done so much for the community and his tribe. Keep your head up Mike you have people who believe in you and always will ❤
I took a class with FCS after reading up and digging into Mike's background. I've never seen ANYTHING to make me think he would be abusive to his spouse and really don't believe he did even though I've never met him. I also believe nobody around him would tolerate him doing that any more than Andy would when he said he'd kick his a$$. Accountability is something that is still held up by most men. I wish you luck Mike. The justice system isn't used to people that are held accountable outside of the system.
Post Partum depression is a serious thing. I had it, and the shit that went through my head was insane. I am a very calm person, and it takes a lot to upset me. I was an emotional wreck. You were smart to take your child from her. There were several times I had thoughts of hurting my child.
I wish there was more public education on post-partum. But like all things women's health related, the knowledge/studies/treatments are always inadequate and way late to the party. Sigh.
@@imm0rtalitypassi0n Post partem depression has the double issue of being women's health AND mental health combined. Either one on its own is undervalued in our society. And mental health should definitely be taught in high school as an integral part of the curriculum, not an elective that only some schools offer as psych 101.
The feds previously flagged him as a terrorist so I’m guessing the description they gave over the radio (basically a deranged veteran with lots of guns) probably came from the Feds.
@@jackwagon1798 This is way more than that. Even before this podcast when the initial details came out it was clear the detective was going above and beyond to throw as many charges at him as possible. Maybe you don't know the details of the case
@@orcanimal oh you mean like charging him with violating a no contact order when he call the victim and told her to recant? Yep, they were really going all out....just picking on him
This is simple, as an older than you two Marine and retired LEO, I have supported Mike for many years prior to this incident. I know that my faith that the stories,click bait and down right lies would be shown to be incorrect would be the truth. Nothing is as it initially seems. You and Mike are the kind of subject creator we need in this country today. Let Mike know that at least one person “has your back” in any way I can help. Just let me know.
Sorry brother, went through this as a civilian in early 2000 and again in UCMJ in 2015, both in my favor but what a tax. It’s the worst thing ever but life eventually gets better, life has a better taste. Keep on trucking, stay motivated and never quit
The lesson here no one wants to talk about is that Mike's first and cardinal error was is selection process of women. Even if her now new description of events is 100% accurate, the damage is done, and that parade of red flags has been waving since they met. Men- make good choices of women, because this is what happens when you dont.
All due respect and sympathy to Glover and respect to his military service and personal accomplishments. Having said that: When this happens to a person with no savings and no network, they're just screwed. Like when an ex-wife tries to play the R card 3 years after separation. Like when a vet loses custody of children because they chose cannabis therapy over opioids. It happens every day. And the cases getting dismissed has to do with the person involved having MONEY to afford an attorney. And Mike's spouse backing off the charge is working to his advantage. If she rode it out Mike would be neck deep in this for years.
Where did you find the sketchy 1950’s room here? Should switch it to black and white to add to this great interrogation feel. Crazy story Mike, so sorry you and your family are having to deal with the system. Maybe this will be good in the long run bringing this system to light. Hang in there!
I'm with you Mike. Had a similar event a couple of years after I got out. Former Regiment here(2nd bat), cib. The experience destroyed my faith in system that I sacrificed for, to uphold. Sorry this happened to you, I wouldn't wish it upon an enemy. God Bless brother, lean on Him.
I am an army infantry veteran. I’m not special forces or super high speed but I’m going through this same shit right now. My wife of 9 years we have two kids things were great for over 8 years. She started doing nothing but sit in the internet then one day she says she is gay and is a man now. Obviously weird to hear for me and worried about the kids. It did nothing but get horrible. She started treating the kids like shit every day she was in relationships with strangers online and when one person she didn’t even know stopped talking to her she freaked out and claimed she would off herself and all this. We have a 3 and 6 year old so I made her go to the hospital they did nothing she was back a few hours later. She was fired from her job the next day which she only had for two weeks because she was trying to have sexual relationships with a minor. At that point I tried telling her that I don’t want her around the kids anymore. She lost her mind walked out and soon after police showed up and she was claiming I had sexually and physically assaulted her. I’ve never touched her never been in trouble and we had a wonderful relationship for years and years. Luckily the officer there understood and nothing happened that night. I then get court papers and other cops show up and now I’m in trouble. There is no proof cause nothing happened. I have lost my wife I’ve lost my job now because we don’t have family or childcare here for my kids we have lost our stuff we own. Me and my kids were fucked over by a mental illness from another. This is the worst time of my life and I’m not well known there is no podcast to go on there is nobody I have found that can help at all. This woke crazy bullshit ruins families every day. Sorry for what happened to you Mike I wish you and your spouse the best. I know your situation is different with different causes
Your wife sounds like someone who lacks a stable sense of self, the woke shit she read is probably what triggered the unmasking of her deep seated identity problem.
Get as much evidence to show your wife had psychological problems and doing things to directly cause your marriage to fail. Also include the pronoun and gender change because it can help to cause the DA's case against you to be dismissed if it is evaluated she is incapable of being a credible witness since she can't be sure if she is your female wife or a pretend male stranger you never did wrong to. Never give up and do not confess to any false allegations ever.
If you have custody, maybe take the kids elsewhere and regroup and restart. Could be good for you and for them to start anew somewhere else that might be better. I’m genuinely sorry to hear about what’s happening to you, man. Make sure that you remain the more responsible and squared-away party. Doesn’t sound like that would be an issue, considering the mess.
Great video. You’re a great friend Andy. You let Mike talk when you controlled what you had going on inside and listened. You guys keep doing what you do to make this crazy world better.
Mike. Even I feel blessed to see you out. My prayer go out for you and your family. Your employees and colleagues are some of the most loyal and professional. Looking forward to seeing more!
At the end of April I was arrested and put in jail for family violence for 3 days for something I didn't do. I'm still waiting for more details on my case.
If you believe they confused Mike with another Mike Glover you clearly need to get your head checked. NOT EVEN CLOSE!! Mike was the talk of the LE community when he went in. They knew EXACTLY who he was. THOSE ARE FACTS!!
@@dxthbeds9537 A) You heard that you don’t have proof of that! B) He and his company were briefed to congressional and Senate committees on National television as being possible domestic terrorist. LoL … Not sure there’s much help for you if you can’t sort that out. LoL … You make it make sense bud. LoL
Thank you Andy for giving Mike this opportunity.He and his family have been through so much . I pray that he can get back on track and be healthy for him and his beautiful children. I couldn’t believe that anyone took this and ran with it . Mike has done so much for the community and his tribe.
I can only imagine the level of stress involved, having to cope with such a terrible miscarriage of ‘justice’. Any average man, 99% of the time, would have been broken beyond repair, I mean that in the worst sense imaginable. Perhaps the depth of your earlier life’s experiences, serving in the special forces, are what gave you the power and strength to get through this. The level of corruption, or ineptitude and betrayal, by the bureaucracy of the country you fought and bled for is horrendous. Stay Strong, thank you for your past work. My sincere best wishes, I hope for positive outcome at the end of the tunnel. Heads need to roll for has transpired, there has to be accountability and punitive measures dished out to all of those responsible, along with remuneration and restitution !!
I've literally had police convince a girlfriend that I was abusive and because of my veteran infantry status....... Mwrap, SWAT, cordoned neighborhood......THAT WAS THE INITIAL CONTACT. Never was I asked what happened or if I was even guilty. Than the prosecutor comes at me the next morning in jail & threatened this or that unless I cop to a plea....... I refused. 45min later the judge releases me on a PR bond & the case never grew legs. Such BS. Police don't understand how close they are pushing society to war.
I'm glad this is not the situation that was first reported and that everything seems to be getting worked out, but Mr. Glover is getting a very real, very hard lesson in the realities of a system has helped train and support for years now.
He trains police to deal with violent people attempting to kill or maim them. Do you believe that police should not arrest criminals and that criminals are justified in killing and maiming them? Because that's kind of what your post indicates.
@@vegasilkittruth hurts. Who shows up at your door with someone lies about your parenting… the social worker? No. The officer, with an AR and a handgun. They are the end of the spear doing the bidding of some crazy female social worker who can make up LIES and uproot your life and traumatize your kids putting them in foster care… WITHOUT ANY STANDARD OF EVIDENCE.
@@vegasilkit He should realize the people he's training aren't as responsible or stringent as he thought they were and they will likely use his techniques when they aren't justified to do so.
@@Jake-bt3fc That's magical thinking. Millions of law enforcement interactions each week. 99.999% of them are totally justified and appropriate. The ones that aren't are handled through counseling, discipline, dismissal, or prosecution at the local/county/state or federal level. It is the suspect and not the officer that decides whether force will be used by resisting or attempting to flee. What you're saying is that officers should not receive any training from anyone because it could be misused. Just give them guns and emergency vehicles and let them roll. I started my LE career when that was done. Sworn in, given badge and an assignment and eventually (after months on the job) sent to a state academy for several weeks. Luckily I had a LE college degree but Oh, My! The things I saw.
@@vegasilkit What's magical thinking is calling bad police unicorns when really you see police with attitude problems more often than not in the real world.
The Bride and I never stopped supporting Mike and Fieldcraft Survival through the t-shirt club, app, and merchandise . We even stopped by Fieldcraft headquarters in Provo while on vacation from Houston. We love Mike and what he stands for.
Your opening dialog is spot on. Perfect. Everyone should never be too quick to judge and wait until all of the proven facts are there. People are innocent until proven guilty in this county.
Thankyou for sharing this Mike. My thoughts are with you and your family. I’ve been separated from my kids before and it’s the hardest thing to go through as a father. Also I really appreciate you speaking out on the mental health side. As someone who has battled with bipolar disorder hearing you speak about mental health and not stigmatise it really means a lot. 💚 Scott.
I really hope Mikes company, Field Craft Survival, "survives" this incident. He said he lost about 50% of business since the story went public about him being arrested.
My husband and I have been through similar things twice now in the 11 years we have been together . He was a cop and is no longer because of a judicial system in Portland, OR which is entirely corrupt. Corrupt people were allowed to destroy his life, and unfortunately in this area of the country, even fighting back legally is met with a corrupt system which will not allow for justice for us. He is the best of men, and a veteran, and much like Mike he was given zero benefit of any doubt. So much support for Mike.
Mike Glover is the epitome of a warrior, on top of that as a green beret way abobve average intelligence. Any " advice" shared on this he will have already thought of. He doesn't need our 2 pence worth. Thankfully his good pal Andy has got a legitimate platform for Mike to convey, uninterupted or manipulated his recollection of events and that is a rare gift which I'm sure he has earned. It also highlights a group of police officers who are clearly envious of Mikes skills and attitude. So rather than absorb and learn from him they rally together like high school bullies, this is a crystal clear example of poorly selected individuals that roam the streets with a badge, a gun and inferiority issues. It's terrible Mike is going through this and the stress it's causing but hopefully in some way his code will empower the next person being hounded by the police to stand and fight with their brain. It would be priceless to see one of these cops bump into Mike far away from his buddies and watch him crumble. That kind of karma is justice, all bullies are weak and scared and that makes them very dangerous, in the most pathetic and cringeworthy way. All the best Mike!! Nick from Scotland
