Barry Donadio President of Public Security LLC (Photo by Patsy Lynch)

You’re in good hands with Barry Donadio the President of Public Security LLC, who is a former U.S. Secret Service tactical operator.

The building is as anonymous as one could find, nestled in an industrial park in Queenstown, MD., a mid-size town on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. A small discreet sign is the only indication that there is a well-known, well-regarded security company. The office is functional, a few items including a small toy car, certificates from the states of Maryland and New York certifying that the occupant is fully licensed as a private detective and a firearms instructor. This is the office of Barry Donadio, President of Public Security, LLC, one of about 420 security agencies in Maryland.

Like the office where he sits, Barry Donadio presents the image of a calm, quiet man, who’s background belies his appearance. Donadio, a native of New York, his accent still present, has always been involved with some aspect of security.

The summer of his junior year in high school, Donadio participated in a then, novel program which allowed underaged (he was 17) students to join the New York (NY) Army National Guard and take part if a modified boot camp. Unlike the JROTC, this program was designed to prepare students to become fully qualified student upon graduation. After graduation, Donadio qualified as an Infantry Recon Scout, assigned to the Army National Guard on Long Island, NY. He loved being in the National Guard. “I have so much respect for the men and women I worked with. Every day, they place their lives on the line to defend this country. It was an honor to serve with them.”

After his initial commitment to the Army National Guard was completed, he joined the U.S. Army Reserve as a Military Police Officer at the 340th Military Police Company in Jamaica, Queens NY. He later transferred to the New York Air National Guard where he became a Team Leader in the Emergency Services Team and was a Security Police Officer. This assignment saw him involved with the crash of TWA Flight 800 which crashed off Long Island Sound. This experience leads him to later write his first book, “TWA Flight 800 First Responder Witness Account”.

During his posting in at the Garbreski ANG base in Westhampton Beach, Long Island, he worked with a variety of law enforcement agencies, both State and Federal. He worked along side these agencies assisting with protecting President Bill Clinton and Vice President Al Gore who would visit the New York City area and Long Island. Several Federal Agents that he worked with encouraged him to consider working for the Federal Government and after visiting the Washington DC area, decided to apply to the Secret Service.

‘I finally did send in an application and promptly forgot about it. Image my surprise when I got a call to come in for an interview. I passed the required tests and background investigation and found myself working at the White House.”

Donadio’s job at the White House position was that part of the elite Emergency Response Team (ERT) whose job is to provide security for the President both at the White House itself and on travel to local and foreign areas. Donadio, understandably is reluctant to discuss specifics, even today, due to the nature of the job and to protect the security still in place.

Reluctant to retire completely, “I am the kind of guy who likes to stay busy.” Donadio wanted to do something in the security business and after talking with various people in and around the Washington DC area, decided to pursue his current position, which is marketed towards people who want to know that their home, family, friends and neighbors are protected from outside elements.

Determination, laser sharp focus and over all security are what Barry Donadio advances at Public Security LLC which is a high-end private security and investigation firm that provides a variety of services, from security patrols and armed protection for private events to personal security for celebrities, state and local Congressional representatives. Donadio employees Military veterans, off duty and retired police officers, Security professionals and defense industry contractors who have specialized skills that may be needed to meet the need of their clients. The company also can conduct background checks for potential employees and act as legal process servers in addition to being hired as private detectives.

“I love having prior military personnel on my list contract employee list. I know I can depend on them to provide quality services to our clients.” said Donadio.

“In addition to providing security services, I am also a Firearms instructor. Police departments and private clients in the area can use our services to ensure that their staff are up to date with their training requirements. I also conduct monthly firearm instructions for private individuals who may be interested in acquiring a permit to own and carry a gun. The state of Maryland has very strict laws regarding gun ownership and I make sure that the people who attend my classes are well trained.”

Public Security LLC Advises That Security Cameras Are Not Enough To Stop Crimes

Public Security LLC Company Flag

Public Security LLC advises the public not to be deceived into believing that security cameras make you safe. If you search youtube, you can find countless murders, sexual assaults, robberies and abductions all taking place in the face of a security camera. The cameras did a great job documenting the attacks, but didn't stop the attacks. Criminals know to simply wear a mask and it is business as usual. Current public opinion is that once a security camera is installed, they don't have to worry about crime. Security cameras are an excellent supplement and tool. It should be part of your security plan. It should never be your entire security plan and only tool that you are depending on. There are security cameras at the White House and other high risk locations. Without an armed protective force protecting those locations, would those cameras stop anyone? The simple answer is "No". It is the same for your venue or event.

Clients need armed private security officers to respond to threats against the public. Security Officers take the focus off innocent victims and draw the attention of criminals to them. This allows innocents to flee during an active shooter scenario that we are seeing so often these days nationwide. Chances are, once you have armed Security Officers on your site, criminals will choose a softer target, one without armed security.

Security In Maryland Like You Never Seen It Before

A community church in Hyattsville, Maryland had become victim to robberies when they gave free gifts to their parishioners during the holiday season.

Some of the gifts they gave their parishioners were gift cards, new clothing, cell phones, kids toys and even cash. It was a nice gesture that personally touched their parishioners and many people in the community.

The good citizens of the community were not the only ones to notice the charity and good graces of the small church in Hyattsville, the criminals also noticed. Parishioners were getting mugged walking from the front door of the church to their car with their new gifts. Crafty criminals even attended the services of the small church. If the criminals didn't win the door prize that they wanted when the church gave out prizes, they tried to take the newly given gift away from the recipient right there in the church during services.

It is hard to believe what a person is capable of doing to another. It sounds like a story that took place in a far away country or war zone. These incidents and many more like it occur almost everyday in Maryland and throughout the United States.

The church that was encountering these problems sought out the services of a serious private security company in Maryland named "Public Security LLC".

Ready to confront any threat, Public Security LLC secured the church events with their armed Officers and using their high visibility vehicles. All which are fitted with dashboard camcorders to document encounters with suspected criminals.

Needless to say, the criminals that would prey on the members of this church have moved on to a more easy target somewhere else.

The company is led by a former member of the U.S. Secret Service, Barry Donadio.

He formed the company after serving an honorable career in multiple agencies. He knows what he is doing when it comes to deterring crime and anti-terrorism.

"Mission accomplished in Hyattsville!", said Mr. Donadio. "Criminals have a choice when dealing with Public Security LLC. "Get charged, get arrested and get ultimately incarcerated or they can move on and away from our clients and their assets. We are ready for what ever decision they make." "If they perpetrate a crime, we will move to have them prosecuted."

After the introduction of this company into the complex issues of the church, there were no longer any problems. No more robberies and no more crimes. Parishioners were able to practice their faith safely without any worries.

Public Security LLC has protected many large scale events, churches, businesses and even homes. They even have clients that use their private executive protection services that mimic the Secret Service.

Public Security LLC maintains a sub-station at 203 Romancoke Road, Stevensville, Maryland 21666. Staff have advised that access to the sub-station is by appointment only.
