John Mercure and Telly Hughes open the 5PM hour with raw, emotional reactions to the ambush that injured two Milwaukee police officers. They speak again with Milwaukee Police Association President Alexander Ayala and revisit their earlier conversation with Judge David Borowski, who expresses deep frustration with repeat offenders cycling through the justice system. The hour captures the urgency, outrage, and hope for real change in a city grappling with violence—and looking for a path forward.
