#1,868 - Seattle starts hiring unarmed ’alternate response teams’ to respond to 911 calls

Is Seattle's new pilot program a step forward or a dangerous experiment that risks public safety? As your hosts, we question the wisdom of dispatching unarmed social workers to 911 calls for mental disturbance, casting a skeptical eye on whether this move will truly lighten the police workload or merely complicate the situation further. We don't shy away from discussing the potential ramifications of a proposed legislation that could see the decriminalization of certain offenses for defendants grappling with substance abuse, mental disorders, or poverty.

Deepening this discourse, we tackle Seattle's controversial defund the police movement and the potential implications on the city’s safety and security. With a proposed 17% budget cut for the police department now on the table, we openly challenge the feasibility of this move and the additional burdens it could place on an already overworked police force. Join us for this stimulating debate that reevaluates the boundaries between compassion and security in our justice system. Brace yourself for an episode that will leave you with more questions than answers.
