Part 1: Michael Martinez and Handling Four Shootings in Two Years - The Impact on Health and Wellness

San Diego Police Officer Michael Martinez was involved in his first shooting within eight months of joining SPPD. And that’s when the headaches and drinking started. Then he was involved in two more shootings within another year. He was good at hiding his troubles for a while. Then it all caught up with him, and his world—his career—started crumbling around him. He had a chance to get treatment, but would he take it? Michael talks about how twenty-eight days saved his life and put him in a position to deal with another shooting within six months of getting out of treatment.
