About this listen


On this podcast episode I have a conversation with Tania Owens, widow Sgt Steve Owens. Sgt Owens died in the line-of-duty on October 5th 2016 when he responded to a burglary call in Lancaster, California. This was a very emotional interview as it was recorded at Sgt Owen’s mother’s house. Sgt Owen’s daughter also joined in the talk to give her insight as the child of a fallen deputy.
