Upon returning home, Blake entered law enforcement, eventually becoming a gang, gun, and cartel detective and a SWAT team member, grappling with the realities of policing amid a shifting public climate. Blake also opens up about his struggle to reconcile with his estranged father, who battled addiction, and the emotional toll it took.
