In the wake of several headline-grabbing cases where police officers have been less than completely attentive to victims, there's a push to teach more sensitivity to the rank and file. Those who train officers say it comes down to basic human consideration, but public safety can be a desensitizing profession, to say the least. Friday morning at 9, join host Regina Brett for a conversation about sensitivity, police work, and why the two don't always go hand in hand when it comes to sex crime investigations.

Guests

Bertina King, Detective, Crimes Against Persons Unit, Akron Police Department
Kimberly A. Lonsway, Ph.D., Research Director, EVAW International
Bishop J. Delano Ellis, Pentecostal Church of Christ & Chaplain for the Cleveland Police Department
