Shownotes Transcript

After three decades of increased safety, **crime is once again on the rise **across the United States--and the topic is quickly becoming one of great political importance.

Having lead the police force in three major American cities (Boston, NYC and Los Angeles), **Bill Bratton **is the perfect person to talk to regarding any effort to reverse this troubling trend.
