Retired Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper Ken Stafford shares a raw true crime story of brotherhood, loss, and resilience. In 1983, his partner Trooper Leon Bench was killed in the line of duty on what should have been a routine traffic stop. Ken reveals what really happened that night, how he later faced down a double-homicide suspect on another high-risk stop, and why there’s no such thing as a routine traffic stop.
