Great Cato podcast interview by Caleb Brown with Billy Murphy of HBO’s great show The Wire on police, race, the drug war–he has some great comments on why the police have gotten worse, in part because of police mobility; why judges tend to “believe” police; and the disparate treatment given to minorities by cops and the legal system. Outstanding interview and comments.
