Much has been said, and much will be said about Mayor Weston-Broome’s initiative to “reform” BRPD.  Yesterday she announced “policy additions” which were in fact, trained on and practiced by BRPD.  Is it helpful, usual, or normal for an elected official to make policy?  We asked the president of the non-membership, non-partisan Police Foundation, Jim Bueermann on AM Baton Rouge.
