#100 (Jerry Ratcliffe)
For the 100th episode of Reducing Crime, Jerry Ratcliffe switches sides of the microphone to answer listener questions. He reflects on changes in policing, evidence-based policing, crime science, leadership, CompStat, and communicating research to practitioners. He argues for greater curiosity, testing what police do, and replacing short-term responses with sustained problem solving, while hoping evidence-based decision-making eventually becomes routine rather than exceptional in policing.
