In this gripping episode of Warrior of Truth, Kelly sits down with retired NYPD detective Mike Codella, whose two-decade career spanned some of New York City’s most turbulent times. Codella’s experience isn’t confined to the standard beat; he’s been undercover, worked in plainclothes, and led as a detective sergeant through the 1980s and '90s, facing the city’s darkest challenges head-on.
Kelly and Mike dive into the unsettling surge of random, unprovoked assaults in NYC, discussing possible drivers behind this spike in violence and contrasting the police response now to what he witnessed in his years on the force. Kelly, a recent survivor of such an attack, brings a personal perspective to the conversation, making this dialogue both urgent and deeply personal.
Mike confirms Kelly’s theory that city and NYPD officials may be underreporting crime statistics to give the appearance of a safer city. He explains how simple tactics, like downgrading the classification of crimes or selectively choosing which incidents are logged, can make significant crime levels appear much lower on paper, all while staying under the radar.
Mike also talks about how today’s police face far more challenges than he did, with restrictions like “no frisk” laws and reduced protections that make it harder to curb crime effectively and ensure their own safety on the streets.
But the revelations don’t stop there. Mike shares one of his most haunting cases—an investigation that uncovered shocking ties to satanic cults operating in the shadows of New York. The connections were chilling, linking to high-profile cases like the disappearance of Etan Patz and David Berkowitz, infamously known as the Son of Sam, who was allegedly involved with this cult. Mike reveals a side of NYC many have only seen in films, with disturbing accounts of clandestine mansion parties reminiscent of Eyes Wide Shut, involving some of the city’s most powerful figures.
Brace yourself for an unfiltered exploration of the city’s underbelly, past and present, as Kelly and Mike shine a light on the harsh realities lurking just beneath the surface.
