Since the summer of 2020, across the country, law enforcement has seen their policing practices come under strict scrutiny, facing calls for more body cameras, removing qualified immunity, and defunding the police. But as violence continues to impact urban communities, how can we keep the streets safe for Americans? Former NYPD Commissioner Ray Kelly knows what it takes to manage crime in a big city, and he says that being a police officer and battling crime have only gotten harder since he was in charge. He joins the Rundown to discuss what policing tactics he would bring back, how crime has changed over the years, and what solutions from law enforcement are proving effective.
