“Celebrity current news”

By: Harlan (Hucky) Austin

Lots of people want to be bodyguards to famous people. The truth is, Celebrity Details are probably the most coveted positions, but represent only one small sector of Executive Protection. Details can range from accompanying a CEO of a Fortune 500 company to a shareholders meeting, to acting as a bodyguard/personal assistant to a celebrity, to the reaches of the upper echelon and most dangerous work–protecting political dignitaries from terrorist attacks.

Sasops from Tactical Forums describes a detail representative of the kind of work other people won’t ordinarily do, and which is rarely noted in the job description:

“I got to work in a huge trash dump recently and realized that the location was not one that anyone ever advertised as a lure into the profession¦surrounded by mountains of filth, rotting corpses, pigs (eating the flesh off the corpses) and gun toting bandits.”

Makes fetching a mocha latte for a celebrity employer seem like a walk in the park, right? I have been fortunate in that the scope of my duties as a Bodyguard have never included flesh-eating pigs–rather, I have protected the famous, the beautiful, and the self-absorbed. Yup. You read that last bit right.

Midland Reporter-Telegram

The former bodyguard of one-time Fort Worth rap musician and crack cocaine dealer Tommy “Twisted Black” Burns has pleaded guilty to drug conspiracy after being apprehended in Flint, Mich.

They said Leroy “Big” Shelton had been a fugitive from the U.S. Marshals Service since disappearing when Burns was arrested at Scarred 4 Life Records in Fort Worth last July.

Convicted by a U.S. District Court jury in Midland Nov. 23 last year, Burns was sentenced to 30 years in the U.S. Bureau of Prisons Feb. 22 by U.S. District Judge Robert Junell.
 

Shelton and Burns were indicted for engaging in a conspiracy to distribute more than 50 grams of crack cocaine between January 2001 and June 2005. Officers had said Michigan was a particular point of interest in Shelton’s pursuit because he and Burns are Detroit natives.

In a plot Midland police and federal investigators said traveled Interstate 20 from Fort Worth to Midland, Shelton was accused of involvement in the sales of 5 grams of crack here April 5, 2005, and more than 50 grams June 2 that year.

Aspiring Midland rapper Zeteral “Zet” Perkins went to trial in a closely related crack conspiracy in September 2005 and received a 22-year term.

Officers at Burns’ sentencing said he was complicit in the sale of a total of 1,022 grams of crack during his visits to Midland, which his attorneys characterized as promotional trips to popularize his records.

What is a Bodyguard?…….. A Secret Service Agent lookalike?……..A Goon?……..
By Joseph LaSorsa

Bodyguard training courses in USA

What does one envision when thinking of a “bodyguard”? When one considers the historical image of a “bodyguard”, most people envision a large, tall, mean looking individual, capable of lifting you in one hand and tossing you across the room, seemingly without effort.

In today’s world, security professionals refer to “bodyguards”, our associates, as “executive protection specialists” or “EP agents”.

In terms of answering the first question, “What is a bodyguard”; let’s first ask the question: What is Executive Protection?

Executive Protection is the integration and deployment of physical & technical security measures and countermeasures to protect the life of the protectee (person protected) and/or corporate asset or property.

Executive protection is not simply the traditional image of a “goon” guarding a dignitary, V.I.P. or celebrity. The modern protection agent image is centered on:
