President Trump takes control of the D.C. police force as he orders the National Guard to the nation’s capital, warning he might expand it to other cities.
His action follows comments by Vice President JD Vance about lawlessness in Ohio’s major cities – calling out Columbus and a recent brawl in Cincinnati.
The political heat comes at a moment when violent crime in Columbus and Cincinnati is trending down.
This hour, we’re sitting down with Police Chief Elaine Bryant of the Columbus Division of Police to discuss crime (perception versus reality), police reforms, recruitment and the pros and cons of police technology.
Guest:
- Elaine Bryant, chief of Columbus Division of Police
