S3E22: Mistrust of Law Enforcement is it Caused by The Media?

The News Media creates, exaggerates and inflames mistrust between minority communities and Law Enforcement. Daniel Burgess of the Mark Pappas Foundation explains how they are bridging the gap between Law Enforcement and the youth of today. Their unique combination of technology and mentoring helps to counter the negative image of Police that is spread by the news media.
