First, Dr. Darren Wheelock speaks with his colleague, Dr. Meghan Stroshine, whose research focuses on policing and law enforcement. Topics include problems in police culture, the training and recruitment of officers, and the results of the status of reforms of the Milwaukee Police Department following the 2017 court settlement with the ACLU.
