A Sheriff Costs Taxpayers Over $100 Million

In this week’s State of Criminal Justice, we’ll cover a county’s costly bill for a brutal sheriff, a vote to replace a notorious police department, and a police officer caught planting evidence. And in our New Ground segment, we’ll talk about a city that rejected “super-funding” their police department.
