51 weeks out of the year on our rural crime episode I will be focused on "rational choice" type criminal activity that is the most likely to be what we will experience on our farms or rural properties. However, today I am going to focus on interpersonal violence. Some of you may have heard of Gavin De Becker, or his best-selling book, The Gift Of Fear. Others of you may not be familiar with him or his work. I am a huge fan, and have been lucky enough to have some significant involvement with his company, Gavin De Becker & Associates. Over the course of this week I have been listening to an interview he recently did with Joe Rogan on the Joe Rogan Experience. I have embedded the link to the episode below. This was a great reminder of what a resource that Gavin De Becker is, and why I am such a fan. In today's episode I am going to take some time to describe my experiences working with and using the products created by Gavin De Becker & Associates to justify why I am recommending that you consume one of their for profit resources and two of their free resources. In the United States, for the vast majority of people, interpersonal violence is something that we will likely never experience. This is good, but it is also bad because it can lead to complacency. If you are unlucky enough to encounter a situation like this, there will have been warning signs ahead of time that were likely missed. The free resources that I am recommending can give you the skills and remind you to pay attention to your intuition to help you get out of these situations before they ever escalate to this level. I think that this information is valuable enough, that I am taking an entire episode to discuss it with you today. More Places You Can Listen to Off-Farm Income And Matt Brechwald:

A couple weeks ago during our rural crime episode I reported on the theft of saddles and other tack at a horse competition in the U.K. Contained in that article was the story of the saddle owners, Ibi Whatley, who was angered enough by the theft to take action. She had started a Facebook Group called "Stolen Saddles U.K." and it had gained a lot of attention in a short amount of time. I knew that there must be more to the story, so I reached out to Ibi and asked her to be a guest on the show. Today she answers all of my questions about what happened, who she suspects took the tack and where it is now. Plus, we find out some very useful information about locks and how what we think is secure might not be. I think this will be an important episode for anyone, no matter which continent you find yourself on. More Places You Can Listen to Off-Farm Income And Matt Brechwald:

As you know, I don't normally conduct interviews for our rural crime episode. However, every now and then an article about rural crime will pop into my inbox and compel me to do just that. This week I am featuring an interview with Dr. Diane Charlton, Assistant Professor of Agricultural Economics at Montana State University in Bozeman. Dr. Charlton and two of her colleagues collaborated on a study looking at the impact of migrant labor during peak work seasons to see whether or not crime rates increased. Their results indicated that not only did crime rates not increase, they decreased when there was a large influx of migrant laborers and copious amounts of work to be done in agriculture. In today's episode we will discuss her research and findings.

A few weeks ago my tip of the week was to use a forensic marking technology, such as Smart Water, to identify your property and to prevent the thefts in the first place. However, this wasn't actually my tip. This was a recommendation that a constable in the U.K. had made when he was interviewed about preventing sheep thefts in that country. As I looked into what this technology was, I became very intrigued. Going down this rabbit hole ultimately led me to Randy Butschillinger, who is our expert guest on today's show. As you will find out in today's interview, this technology is actually very old and trusted, and it is being used in more places than you might think already. The applications for this seem endless, and the crime prevention possibilities make me very optimistic!

On today's rural crime episode, Matt talks to Captian Greg Whitehead with the Tennessee Ag Crime Investigation Unit about protecting farmers from being victims of rural crime. They discuss what kinds of crimes the unit investigates, how prolific is the theft of timber, and what can people do to protect themselves from this happening. Is there a black market for stolen timber or is there just no way for legitimate sellers to know any difference?

SHOW NOTES On our rural crime episodes of the Off-Farm Income Podcast, we talk about livestock theft frequently. It is significantly more pervasive than anyone would ever suspect. And since the prices of puppies have skyrocketed during the pandemic we have covered a lot of stories about the theft of dogs and puppies. There is a real difference between the theft of livestock and dogs. One is basically, purely monetary, and one is very emotional because a dog is a member of the family. Well, there is one species of livestock that reaches both parts of this divide, and that is horses. Horses have commercial value, they are used for working and they also become part of the family just like a pet. So, when a horse is stolen it can be devastating and have long-term impacts both financially and emotionally. Two weeks ago I covered a story about the recovery of a mule in Texas. In the story, I found out that a non-profit organization called Net Posse was responsible for the recovery. I reached out to them, and in today's episode, we are lucky enough to have the founder, Debbi Metcalf, on the show. Debi is going to tell us all about how Net Posse works, what you can do to prevent horse theft, and about the seedy underworld dealing in stolen horses and other livestock. She will also tell us her personal story about having her husband's horse stole in 1997, and how that led to a multi-year investigation, ramrodded by Debbi herself, the recovery of the horse, the recover of stolen property, and the recovery of lost financials. And....how that led to the beginning of this great organization - Net Posse.
