KFRU Business Spotlight -- November 15th & 16th, 2025. Matt Stephens, Deputy Chief of the Columbia Police Department, joins us this week for an update on CPD.  We talk about the policies and practices being discussed since an incident on Homecoming weekend caused the spotlight to be shone on violent crime in downtown Columbia.  There have been many discussions and some changes have been made.  CPD has continued plans for weekend nights in downtown that were actually put in place as early as June.  Changes have evolved including partnerships with the Boone County Sheriffs Department, University of Missouri Police Department and the Missouri Highway Patrol.  We talk about building the numbers of officers on staff and getting them trained and through the process to the streets.
