Sometimes it’s hard to find statistics to support some of the most important police work taking place in Madison. When a dedicated and caring gang officer helps turn a life around, and that teen goes on – not to commit more crimes – but become a valued community member, that is not recorded in any official stats. Yet, it is happening, and veteran Gang Unit Officer Lester Moore knows just how great success feels. He also knows the agony of losing someone you tried so hard to help. A candid conversation about the state of Madison’s gang culture is the focus of our latest podcast.
