Greg Hestness — retired Minneapolis Police Department Deputy Chief with 28 years on the force and a 40-year law enforcement career, pulls no punches as he breaks down the deeply concerning state of MPD morale, the challenges facing officers on the street, and how leadership decisions are impacting recruitment and retention. He addresses the controversial practice of promotions happening while officers have open Internal Affairs investigations, raising serious questions about accountability, standards, and public trust. Plus, he shares new information and behind-the-scenes perspective that hasn’t been widely reported.

From the front lines to the command staff, this is a veteran insider’s view of what’s really happening inside one of America’s most scrutinized police departments.
