Brock Bevell is a retired undercover Police Officer who was run over on duty and ultimately retired from the injuries. He, just like many, were put on pain medications that he became addicted to. Today, Brock inspires thousands to overcome their struggle with drug addiction without medications and intensive rehabilitation.
Brock held a position who I would have identified as an enemy while on drugs, and of course I know longer view this way, is an advocate for those battling addiction. We are now on the same team.
As we all know, addiction isn’t prejudice, doesn’t discriminate, or only occur among certain professions.
I will say that the profession of my guest today doesn’t surprise me, as certain areas of law enforcement will need to gain trust of dealers and probably need to test the drugs themselves which can lead to addiction.
I have heard many stories about federal agents with the DEA who got hooked on drugs. The irony in this is that they fall into the realm of using drugs in their normal scope of practice giving them a great excuse to use drugs.
High While Clean is a platform for individuals in recovery to share their story. give hope to those suffering and a voice to those we have lost. Drug Addiction is powerful and we need to fight the stigma against substance abuse.
