After the death of George Floyd and other high-profile law enforcement run-ins, change is happening at the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office.

Today’s guest, Sheriff Javier Salazar, reveals to Randy the new equipment he’s eyeing that could make some weapons inoperable. He also explains why his deputies are back in firearms training and how COVID-19 put a stop to it.

Salazar touches on the challenge of bridging the gap with law enforcement and the community, growing up in Universal City, and the dream that got away.

Salazar has been sheriff since January 2017. Previously, he served with the San Antonio Police Department for 23 years.
