An online extremist network called 764 is coercing children into horrific acts, and the FBI is now spelling out how it works. This week’s InvestigateTV+ episode brings the details, including the case of 19-year-old Baron Martin of Tucson, the first person in the country facing terrorism charges tied to the group. For parents across the Suncoast, the episode also lays out warning signs and steps families can take to fight back.
The same hour turns to a worry many of us here in Sarasota, Manatee, and Charlotte counties know well: financial exploitation allegations inside long-term care facilities. You’ll also meet Amy McConnell, whose husband Tom was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer’s at 55. When she went looking for care, she found no clear roadmap. Her experience speaks to what so many local caregivers face every day.
There’s lighter material too, including the history of Ellis Island and a school resource officer in Eaton Rapids, Michigan, who says his dad skills carry more weight than his law enforcement training. It’s a packed episode with information worth sharing. What’s the biggest challenge your family has faced when caring for an aging loved one?
