Your Chance to Hear the True Story About January 6th in Shocking Detail
Steven Sund was Chief of the U.S. Capitol Police when the riot broke out--he shared his riveting first-hand account in an interview on CBB's new podcast, "Heroes Behind the Badge"
McLean, VA (January 23, 2025) - "They were outmanned 58-to-1, yet they held the line." Today, we bring you the definitive account from inside the Capitol on January 6th–-not from pundits or politicians, but from the man who led law enforcement's response that day. We're launching "Heroes Behind the Badge," a new video podcast series that gives voice to the true stories of law enforcement – starting with one of the most significant accounts of recent history.
Former U.S. Capitol Police Chief Steven Sund, recently exonerated by Congress, has chosen our platform to share shocking details about January 6th contained in his best-selling book, “Courage Under Fire.”
In this groundbreaking three-part video series, you'll sit across from Chief Sund as he reveals what really happened that day. You'll see his expression change as he recounts critical moments, hear the emotion in his voice as he describes his officers' bravery, and witness firsthand as he shares details that were never reported in the media.
