Episode Details

Chicago Police Superintendent Larry Snelling is retiring after nearly three years in charge, marking the end of a tenure defined by a drop in gun violence, improved federal compliance, and navigating high-stakes events like the 2024 DNC and immigration enforcement. Snelling, a South Side native with decades of experience—including stints as a patrol officer and academy instructor—credits his officers for the progress. He emphasized public safety above all, even amid federal scrutiny, and pushed for community-driven solutions to youth violence. Despite recent upticks in shootings, his leadership left a legacy of accountability, training, and resilience.
