Listen: Rep. Cornish on police training
Last Thursday was the one-year anniversary of the death of Philando Castile. Castile was shot by a police officer during a traffic stop in Falcon Heights.
On that anniversary, MPR host Tom Weber had a conversation about the kinds of changes that could be possible to laws, policy, the justice system and policing. He talked with a state senator, a police chief and a federal judge.
During the conversation, Sen. Jeff Hayden, DFL-Minneapolis, criticized fellow lawmaker Tony Cornish, R-Vernon Center, for not doing enough to make some of the changes Hayden supports. After the show, Tom talked with Rep. Cornish for his response.
