Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
For law enforcement, the summer isn’t much of a time for vacation. Police in Washington have already conducted several “all hands on deck” weekends to prevent a summertime spike in crime. We talk with Police Chief Cathy Lanier about the challenges facing law enforcement in the District this summer and the city’s long-term strategy for fighting crime.
