Video Live PD



Overview

Live PD is hosted by Dan Abrams, the chief legal affairs anchor for ABC News. The program features live video feeds from multiple (usually six) law enforcement agencies throughout the United States.

Abrams is joined in-studio with former Washington DC special police officer and crime reporter Tom Morris Jr. and usually one or two guest analysts -- officers who have been featured on the show. Sgt. Sean "Sticks" Larkin of the Tulsa PD Gang Unit is a frequent guest analyst. Because of the risk of confidential or otherwise inappropriate material to make it to air, A&E imposes a broadcast delay on each department check-in segment which may range from several minutes to several hours.

Notable incidents

Due to the nature of live television, Live PD has captured incidents that may not have been aired on a traditional law enforcement program. One such event that received coverage was Bridgeport Police Department Sergeant Chris Robinson breaking down on camera after learning 13-month-old Michael Citron, suffering from an adverse reaction to antihistamine medication, had died following Robinson escorting an ambulance carrying the child to a local hospital.

A second event, involving a Tulsa, Oklahoma, man named Randy Wallace, featured Wallace accusing Sgt. Sean "Sticks" Larkin of "profiling" and "stalking." Larkin had approached Wallace, inquiring what Wallace had in his open trunk while noting that Wallace's attire was consistent with gang colors worn in the neighborhood. On Live PD, Wallace was seen giving an impassioned denunciation of Larkin and the Tulsa Police Department as Larkin remained seated in his patrol vehicle. Speaking at a press conference, Wallace alleged, "he slandered me as far as being a gang member and affiliate, he slandered me really bad."

In another incident, a family claimed to have recognized their loved one, 37-year-old Benjamin Johnson, deceased on television after what the Richland County Sheriff's Department said was a drug deal gone wrong. Two men were arrested in the case.

In a controversial incident on a July 8, 2017 episode, Senior Deputy Chris Mastrianni was called to a fight in progress at a large house party when a car (leaving the same party) went right past him going about 90 mph (according to the deputy). S/D Mastrianni initiated a traffic stop on the vehicle, which then proceeded to evade him for several minutes. The car then turned a corner before jumping a curb, hitting a power pole's support wire and rolling over. The driver then crawled out the window of his vehicle with his 2-year-old daughter in his arms, and began fighting with S/D Mastrianni. The man then released his child, who was taken to safety by the Live PD field producer. After several minutes, Cpl. Mark Laureano and S/D Katelyn Jasak arrived on scene and aided S/D Mastrianni in handcuffing and arresting the man, as well as pushing back the rapidly growing crowd of bystanders whom were watching the events unfold. The toddler received a broken arm in the incident.

On April 28, 2018, a clip was shown of an incident in Greene County, MO that had happened 10 days earlier. After a car chase, a pursuit on foot was initiated. After the suspect refused to drop his weapon, he was fatally shot.

Technology

In order to deliver live footage from the infield to A&E's master control in New York City, the production team uses AVIWEST bonded cellular transmitters, receivers, and antenna arrays, provided by VidOvation Corp., mounted on the trunk lid of the patrol cars capable of channel bonding on cellular networks. This allows far more mobility while also at a decreased production cost than would be possible using traditional satellite or microwave transmission technologies.
