On this week's podcast, Bob talks with Colorado Springs Police Department Crime Prevention Officers Chris Ausec and Wes Wilkerson. They discuss crime rate in Colorado Springs and on its trails and in its parks (it's less than you think); what kind of crimes are most prevalent, and how to avoid becoming a victim; the homeless community and whether or not they contribute to the crime rate (the answer will surprise you); and more. This is a very lively and informative episode.
