You know how (and why)
This is Maryland. A police officer is accused of stealing $215k from a school. He is indicted by the FBI on 15 charges. Then, another school hires him to teach English (remember, he's a police officer). He pleads guilty & now faces 25 yrs in prison. How can this happen?

This is a manufactured intrusion on local authority. Violent crime in the District is at the lowest rates we’ve seen in 30 years. Federalizing the Metropolitan Police Department is unwarranted because there is no Federal emergency. Full Statement:

President Trump's decision to mobilize the National Guard to conduct municipal policing in D.C. lacks seriousness and is deeply dangerous. We await outreach from the White House if they want to have a serious conversation about public safety. But we won’t hold our breath.

So much of what is told about what happened in Baltimore came from the top down: from city leaders, from national news outlets, and from mainstream news here. We wanted a piece that was told from the perspective of everyday people.
