Coming up Tuesday in Episode 56, Michael and Brent welcome a guest who finds himself in the unique position of serving in a law enforcement agency in the same community where he was born and raised.
Deputy Chief Paul Bailey, of the Middletown Township Police Department, shares his blueprint for being a good street cop and the origin of his philosophy that you must know four things: people, places, the things they do, and the times they do them.
Bailey explains how making personal connections with victims plays a vital role in humanizing those in law enforcement with the community.
Likewise, leaders in an agency must connect with officers by showing interest, not only in their work on the job but also their lives out of uniform. And, in times of outsized public scrutiny, they must stand as a bulwark so the agency can stay focused on fulfilling its duty.
