Nobody Stopped Him","html":"","width":"100%","height":180,"duration":500,"description":"In this episode of Murphy's Law, host Murphy Robinson goes solo — and gets direct about something that he thinks about every single day as a former public safety director, a current law enforcement professional, a tech CEO, and most importantly, as an American.\nThe assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents' Dinner involving President Donald J. Trump wasn't just a breaking news story.

And what he learned from that experience is the same lesson that Saturday night's events proved all over again. Security is only as strong as its weakest verification point.\nIn this episode Murphy connects the dots between the Correspondents' Dinner attack, the massive security events America is about to host — the Olympics, the FIFA World Cup, and more — and the urgent need for a real-time verified authority solution that takes the impossible decision away from the lowest paid person at the checkpoint and puts the power of verification where it belongs.\nThat solution is SurePass.
