Is it time for Chief Mylett to go?

Episode 100

Based on these 4 items I believe we have enough information to determine that Chief Mylett is not the right person for the job of Akron Police Chief and should resign:

  • Ethan Liming - downplaying the gun he used to attack those young Black men and demonizing the Black men.
  • Jayland Walker - not releasing enough video footage and withholding names of officers. The Beacon is suing them for the information.
  • Dealing with Protestors
  • Taking Names off of badges.
  • Reinstating officers.

Notes:
