Todd Jordan: Jordan Detection K9

What if a dog's nose could help rescue hundreds of children from exploitation? In this powerful episode, we sit down with Todd Jordan, founder of Jordan Detection K9 and pioneer of Electronic Storage Detection (ESD) K9 training.

Todd's journey began in 1997 with fire investigation dogs, but everything changed when his first ESD K9, "Bear," uncovered critical evidence at the home of Subway spokesperson Jared Fogle. That breakthrough moment launched a mission that has since trained over 200 specialized K9s deployed nationwide, leading to the recovery of more than 300 victims and the discovery of over 1,000 devices containing child exploitation material.

Todd shares how these remarkable dogs are trained to detect micro SD cards, USB drives, and other electronic storage devices that predators use to hide illegal content. He walks us through gripping investigations where his K9s made the difference between justice and another predator going free.

We also explore Todd's partnership with Hope Center Indy, where they built a state-of-the-art K9 training facility on campus—bringing together cutting-edge detection technology with Hope Center's mission to combat human trafficking and child exploitation.

This is a conversation about innovation, relentless dedication, and how one man and his dogs are changing the landscape of child protection investigations across America.
