Can You Be Charged for Getting in ICE’s Way?
from City Cast Pittsburgh · host City Cast
ICE has been in and around Pittsburgh for months, and even though Mayor Corey O'Connor and Allegheny County Executive Sara Innamorato say we won’t work with them, it’s not always clear what that means. Host Megan Harris is with David Harris, Sally Ann Semenko Endowed Chair and professor of law at the University of Pittsburgh, to talk about how federal agents are affecting one of the city’s biggest inflection points in years — and how a new police chief is likely to approach staffing, recruitment, retention, morale, and rebuilding public trust in their wake. Notes and references from today’s show: Maryland authorities close probe of Pittsburgh police chief nominee as O’Connor stands by his pick [TribLive] From not wanting to leave to coming home: Police Chief Jason Lando leaves the comfort of Maryland for the uncertainty of Pittsburgh [Post-Gazette] PODCAST: What Actually Happens During an ICE Raid?
