Rich Hy is a police detective in the Special Victims Unit in Buffalo, New York, an Army Reserve drill sergeant, and the creator behind Angry Cops, a YouTube channel with over 1.5 million subscribers built over a decade of consistent work. He's a combat veteran with a civil affairs background, multiple deployments, and 21 years of combined service. He's also expecting his first kid.

We pick up where we left off the last time Rich was on. The Buffalo schools investigation he blew open landed with an outside law firm, and the results were exactly what you'd expect when the DA's office won't share files, the police department hides behind juvenile protections that don't apply, and evidence gets conveniently deleted. They found systemic issues. Nobody got held accountable. A principal refused a subpoena. A school withheld camera footage showing a second child in an attempted abduction. The investigation acknowledged the problems Rich raised and then did nothing about the people responsible.

We get into the Epstein files and why most people are reading them wrong. Rich breaks down the difference between investigative documents and verified evidence. We talk Malibu Fitness, Tim Kennedy, and what it looks like when you own a mistake versus when you try to talk your way around one. Rich walks through a case he caught involving a blind refugee found dead in Buffalo — what the media reported versus what actually happened. We cover ICE operations, the Minnesota shooting, why the how matters more than the what in enforcement, and what happens when politicians throw their own people into the meat grinder hoping for a bad headline. Then we get into taxation, the Revolutionary War starting over a one and a half percent tax, property taxes in New York, the death tax, drill sergeant stories, peptides, Iran, and Rich's new podcast Overserved.
