Published 2 weeks, 4 days ago
Description
Hour 1 - Southern California faces a shortfall of roughly 24,000 officers for the 2028 Olympics, forcing cities into imperfect fixes as hiring runs out of time. We unpack LAPD’s proposal to halt academy classes to boost street patrols, LA County’s costly five-year, $1.5B plan to close Central Jail, and new California prison limits on overtime and inmate classes — all shaping public safety and budgets ahead of the Games.
