My guest today is Jason Lacayo. Jason is an Emergency Services Unit officer with the White Plains Police Department. He started his career with the NYPD and has more than 15 years on the job.
In this episode, Jason and I discuss the specifics of SWAT teams, police training, why people don't want police in their neighborhoods, interacting with police as a black person, the foolishness of defunding police, and much more. Regardless of your thoughts on policing and race in America, I think you'll learn something from this conversation. I know I did.
