Summary: KMO speaks with Professor Peter Moskos, author of Cop in the Hood: My Year Policing Baltimore's Eastern District and In Defense of Flogging. Peter speaks against the drug war for L.E.A.P. and he opposed the drug war before, during, and after his stint as a police officer. The conversation starts off with references to the television shows The Wire and Breaking Bad and covers the slowly-changing public perception of drugs and the drug war, the drop in the crime rate, the bloated prison system in the United States, and the role of immigrants on crime rates.
