Benjamin Mannes, a local criminal justice expert and columnist, joins the Dom Giordano Program after an exclusive report in Broad in Liberty in which he exposed that the Philadelphia Police Department is slated to lose their state accreditation in less than a week. First, Giordano asks Mannes why, with Mannes explaining the relationship between the decision and the refusal by Police Commissioner Danielle Outlaw to push back on an unconstitutional edict set forth by Philadelphia City Council that would restrict police officers’ abilities in making traffic stops. Then, Mannes explains what this means for the city, telling that this hurts both the City and the department by removing protections that the department has in defending itself against civil litigation. Also, Mannes and Giordano discuss the news story as reported earlier by Johanson of a 17-year-old outside the Criminal Justice Center, telling how this directly relates to the edict in question. (Photo by William Thomas Cain/Getty Images)
