Ep. 62 / Officer who retired at 40 says justice system is 'out of control'
Minnesota police officer Kiel Rushton, 40, said the day he left his “fairytale” job felt “surreal.”
Rushton wore many hats during his 12 years as a sworn officer for the St. Anthony Police Department, from community engagement officer to detective to patrol officer, and he loved every second of the job.
“I couldn’t believe they were paying me to do it. I would've done it for free. It was an amazing job,” he said.
Rushton spoke with Liz Collin this week to discuss why he left policing at just 40 years old — ultimately, to keep his family safe.
