On the Street with a Police Officer Who Tells It Like It Is!

Police are in the news every day - sometimes for heroic deeds and sometimes being blamed for problems in the street. Today's guest, Dennis Zine, an award-winning police officer with over 50 years on the Los Angeles Police force, has seen it all. He rose to the rank of Sergeant II and is still on the streets as a Reserve officer. He takes us behind the scenes to talk about everything you wanted to know about the police - from why crime has risen, what this means for police officers, why police stood back at the school shooting in Texas and what protocol is supposed to be, how defunding the police and protests against police have affected the morale of officers, caused many to leave the force and others to commit suicide, what officer involved shootings are really about, etc. etc.
