In 1989, Peter Newsham started as a beat cop in the Washington, DC Police Department. He was on the front lines when, in 1991, Washington, DC, in addition to being the nation’s capital, was also its murder capital. In 1999, he saw the Justice Department take over the department after a pattern of excessive force.

Today Newsham is the police chief. Under his watch, the city’s dramatic policing transformation is a national success story.

Listen to this episode to see how the DC department went from the nation’s most challenging to a great model for change.
