Unintended Consequences: Crime Crisis in Our Nation's Capital with Gregg Pemberton

What does it say about when its capital is one of most dangerous cities? Washington, DC is experiencing a crime crisis like no other.

A couple years back, the D.C. City Council passed a dangerous bill that would have embolden criminals, dramatically increase crime and violence, and render police officers in the District of Columbia virtually powerless to adequately police the city and keep its residents and visitors safe. What has happened since should alarm all Americans.

On this episode of the Blue View Podcast, National President Patrick Yoes is joined by Gregg Pemberton, Chairman of the D.C. Metropolitan Police Department Labor Committee. Gregg represents the more than 3,600 rank-and-file DC MPD officers who go to work every day to serve and protect those in living in our nation’s capital.
