Police reform has become a hotly debated topic in policing, public and politics. There are controversies on all sides.
Is it divert or invest in police? Should reform include our communities and society? Has the role of policing changed so much that the term law enforcement is not enough to describe the need and service provided? Are police warriors or servants? Can they be and do it all?
Our guests join us for one of the most comprehensive discussions on police reform you will hear. A conversation where all points can be valid and a middle ground found with examples and solutions.
