United States Marshal for the Eastern District of Missouri Steven O. Lewis joins hosts Marc Cox and Kim St. Onge to discuss the impact of "Operation Show Me Justice," an eight-week collaborative violent crime initiative alongside the ATF, DEA, FBI, HSI, and St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department. Lewis highlights that the U.S. Marshals Service was directly responsible for approximately 350 of the 435 total arrests executed during the surge, targeting high-level fugitives with active state and federal warrants for murder, armed narcotics trafficking, and felon-in-possession firearm offenses. The conversation addresses inter-agency cooperation, local resource shortages, prosecution partnerships with the U.S. Attorney's Office, and upcoming public events honoring D-Day veterans and World War II history.
