EP-34 / Sgt. Ruben Nava, Los Angeles Sheriff's Dept (Ret) #podcast #truecrimes

What happens when strength isn’t just physical—but spiritual too? In this gripping episode, we sit down with retired Los Angeles Sheriff’s Sergeant Ruben Nava, a 30+ year veteran who’s seen it all—from the unforgiving streets of Operation Safe Streets to the high-stakes world of narcotics enforcement. But his story doesn’t stop at the badge. Ruben takes us inside a life few ever get to hear about: balancing crime fighting with personal discipline, stepping onto the bodybuilding stage at Mr. California, and ultimately finding a deeper calling as a Sheriff’s Department Chaplain. This isn’t just another war story. It’s a raw, powerful look at the two sides of law enforcement rarely talked about—the pursuit of justice and the search for faith in the darkest places. Real stories. Real grit. Real purpose. 🎧 Tap in now—this one hits different. #TrueCrime #LosAngeles #PoliceStories #Cartel #Narcotics #GangUnit @aproperscoundrel
