This episode of Oscar Mike Radio is one of the most personaland emotional conversations I’ve had.
I sat down with Courtney Millett to talk about her brother,Joseph “JJ” Millett, not as a headline, not as a court case, but as a human being. A brother. A veteran. Someone who served his country and then came home carrying wounds most people will never see.
Courtney opens her heart about JJ’s military service, hisbattle with PTSD, and the moment everything changed. What should have been a cry for help turned into something far more painful for their Family:confusion, fear, and the shock of watching a Mental Health crisis treated like a crime instead of a call for compassion.
This episode isn’t just JJ’s story. It’s about every veteranwho feels like they must suffer in silence. It’s about families who are trying to hold everything together while watching someone they Love struggle. And it’s about the urgent need to respond to mental Health with understanding, support,and humanity, and not punishment.
If you listen to one episode that reminds you how powerfulempathy can be, let it be this one.
We are JJ Strong.
And JJ — you are not alone.
