"Police Mental Barricade" is a raw, unfiltered look into the epidemic of suicides within law enforcement. Last year Blue Help alone reported 228 known suicides within the law enforcement profession. On the other hand, last year 147 officers were killed in the line of duty. We are losing more officers at their own hands than we are on the job. Why?

 The problem stems from poor leadership within the law enforcement profession. This is an epidemic, and "Police Mental Barricade" is the beginning of a search for a cure.

Nicholas Ruggiero is a law enforcement suicide survivor. Nicholas has almost 20 years in law enforcement and held multiple positions including being a Sergeant in a medium sized department in Virginia. Nicholas is the host of the internationally popular show "The Roll Call Room Podcast" and an advocate for mental health and suicide prevention within the law enforcement community. 

After countless poor leadership interactions and poor decisions that were made by "leaders," Nicholas attempted to take his life on May 25, 2019. With that decision came depression, PTSD, and the struggle and stigma with medications while continuing to be in Law enforcement. This book will address preventative measures to ensure no first responder experiences helplessness.
