WEBVTT 1 00:00:07.240 --> 00:00:10.519 Bill cunning in the Great America. Welcome this sunny Tuesday 2 00:00:10.519 --> 00:00:12.679 afternoon in the tri State. The rain's going away till 3 00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:15.759 the weekend. We'll see what happens. Then Red's baseball kicks 4 00:00:15.800 --> 00:00:19.559 off about five forty five to night. Terrible game last night, Singer, 5 00:00:20.600 --> 00:00:23.800 he was off key completely. It's terrible and Red's put 6 00:00:23.839 --> 00:00:26.239 up eight runs, didn't do any good. But nonetheless back 7 00:00:26.239 --> 00:00:28.960 out at tonight with the Nationals national stink. So we'll 8 00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:31.960 see what happens with that. But the city announced big 9 00:00:32.000 --> 00:00:35.280 pow wow a by having extra police patrols from Central 10 00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:38.280 Parkway to Liberty on two blocks. I think it's up 11 00:00:38.359 --> 00:00:41.039 Vine Street and back in Main Street. So cops when 12 00:00:41.079 --> 00:00:43.399 it's eighty five or ninety five degrees will be walking 13 00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:46.479 up and down from Vine Street, getting some great extracise, 14 00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:49.119 maybe stopping in the greaters here and there, talking to 15 00:00:49.159 --> 00:00:51.600 the residents, finding what's going on. Of course, relying upon 16 00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:56.679 Iris Rowley. The mother of Cincinnati is Iris Rowley, and 17 00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:59.520 she'll be there with her six figure salary talking to 18 00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:02.000 the residents to see what they need. But a man 19 00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:04.640 that has perspective and all this is the great Sergeant 20 00:01:04.719 --> 00:01:07.959 Dan Hills. He's now more or less retired with frontline 21 00:01:08.000 --> 00:01:11.400 advisors thirty five years in the mean streets of Cincinnati. 22 00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:14.519 Now has gotten visa, has a passport. I think he 23 00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:18.480 lives in Warren County. Got out alive, and Sergeant Dan Hills, 24 00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:20.560 welcome again to the Bill Cunningham Show. Since you know 25 00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:24.680 where the bodies are buried all over Cincinnati, can you 26 00:01:24.799 --> 00:01:29.959 tell me the law enforcement value of having police officers 27 00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:33.159 in a defined area flooding the district with two or 28 00:01:33.200 --> 00:01:36.840 three police officers leaving bear all the other streets in OTR. 29 00:01:36.920 --> 00:01:40.480 There's about seven or eight total blocks, and they're going 30 00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:43.480 to patrol two of the seven or eight. Will that help, 31 00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:45.159 Dan Hills? Will that help? 32 00:01:46.519 --> 00:01:52.280 I think it might help three seed easy, It might help. 33 00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:58.400 The dinner reservation numbers might have been down a little 34 00:01:58.799 --> 00:02:01.359 because of all the news and evolving over a rhine. 35 00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:03.760 So we need we need to we need. 36 00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.079 To have the wine flowing, Willie. We need to have 37 00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:10.960 the you know, the the flaming yon being being cooked 38 00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:14.120 just right, and and those restaurants and those things down there. 39 00:02:14.159 --> 00:02:18.599 You know, that's that's that's very vital to the way 40 00:02:18.639 --> 00:02:21.960 the city wants to see itself. The downtown flourishing, and 41 00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:26.039 of course the the vision, the vision of uh three 42 00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:30.280 CDC and then and over the rhine that has never 43 00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:33.479 I I don't think it's it's come to fruition quite. 44 00:02:33.199 --> 00:02:37.240 As as they had hoped that it would. You know, 45 00:02:37.319 --> 00:02:38.319 it's a lot of change. 46 00:02:38.319 --> 00:02:41.080 It's a whole lot different than when I was standing 47 00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:43.400 down there in the riots in two thousand and one. 48 00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:46.960 But uh, it's it's it's come. 49 00:02:46.840 --> 00:02:49.479 A long way, but Willy, it's got a long long 50 00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:52.240 way to go from where they where. 51 00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:54.120 They hope it is. And and so that's what I 52 00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:57.039 think the value is. And you can we could debate 53 00:02:57.120 --> 00:02:58.560 whether that's wrong or right. 54 00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:02.719 I mean, if if here somebody that's living in Mount Washington, 55 00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:06.199 the war Hyde Park or Taylor Park or something like that, 56 00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:09.280 and you haven't seen you haven't seen a police officer 57 00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:12.560 in a month of Sundays, then you might say, well, 58 00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:16.719 this is this ain't too cool. But you know, the 59 00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:21.879 city sees itself, you know, going up or down, on 60 00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:25.280 on on how downtown slash over to rhyme progresses, and 61 00:03:25.360 --> 00:03:29.560 so it Yeah, I think I I read in the 62 00:03:29.879 --> 00:03:34.039 in the news where the union president said that this saint, 63 00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:37.080 this ain't the hours of the burglaries and the and 64 00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:39.479 the exteft from cars and all that stuff. 65 00:03:39.479 --> 00:03:43.639 And I would agree, but it is the hour of. 66 00:03:44.360 --> 00:03:49.080 Like I said, a glass of wine and maybe a 67 00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:53.360 mixed drink for those who enjoy that going down to 68 00:03:53.439 --> 00:03:56.120 that air myself, Like you said, I'm in Warren County. 69 00:03:56.479 --> 00:03:58.039 Uh, my wife and I. 70 00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:00.960 When we say we're going downtown, yeah, or we're going 71 00:04:01.039 --> 00:04:04.000 to go downtown, We're either going to downtown Levinmon or 72 00:04:04.039 --> 00:04:04.960 downtown Loveland. 73 00:04:05.360 --> 00:04:05.639 That's it. 74 00:04:06.199 --> 00:04:09.000 You know, every down then we'll go to downtown Milford 75 00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:10.759 when we really want to, we want to mix it 76 00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:13.080 up a little bit, we'll go to down. Yeah, we'll 77 00:04:13.120 --> 00:04:17.680 go to downtown Milford. But you know it's it's uh, 78 00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:21.959 the city wants the downtown to flirt. And that's not 79 00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:24.199 like I said, I I can't sit there and just 80 00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:26.319 throw hand grenade after hangarnade at that. 81 00:04:26.319 --> 00:04:31.519 That's it. There is value in that. But again, if if. 82 00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:34.079 Your airways are reaching out to the farther reaches of 83 00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:39.399 the city, uh, those in Westwood and Covedale and uh 84 00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:43.319 Oakley and some of these places, they might be saying, well, 85 00:04:44.040 --> 00:04:46.720 where's my police patrol? I'm sure like because those seff 86 00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:49.959 fromatos aren't just happening in O t R. Really, those 87 00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:52.720 steh fromatos and the stolen cars are happening all over 88 00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:54.639 the city, and burgeries are. 89 00:04:54.480 --> 00:04:55.759 Happening all over the city. 90 00:04:56.360 --> 00:04:58.480 And you know, we're still down one hundred and fifty 91 00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:02.439 or more police offic Sure, and when we're doing a 92 00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:07.120 concentrated effort because there's such there's such tremendous issues down 93 00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:10.199 there with the crime numbers and O TRUH, when you're 94 00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:13.360 doing those concentrated numbers, it does eventually have an effect 95 00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:15.680 on the. 96 00:05:14.639 --> 00:05:15.839 The other areas that. 97 00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:19.360 You can't you can't you can't pull a rabbit out 98 00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:23.120 of hat and you can't you can't just make something 99 00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:27.439 out of nothing. They're they're half those those patrols are 100 00:05:27.480 --> 00:05:28.399 coming from somewhere. 101 00:05:28.480 --> 00:05:30.319 And I know that's the oldest headline. 102 00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:33.720 I think the oldest headlines in the in the history 103 00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:37.800 of of of reporting is stone Sell will add more 104 00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:40.319 patrols house house State troopers are going to add more 105 00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:42.759 patrols for this event or that event. Like where are 106 00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:46.759 they getting all these new people? I think it's Uh, 107 00:05:47.199 --> 00:05:51.360 sometimes it's it's a little bit smoking mirrors, really adding 108 00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:54.519 patrols of smoking ears and this is a little smoking mirrors, 109 00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:57.920 you know, having a couple of people walking it should 110 00:05:57.959 --> 00:05:58.360 have some. 111 00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:00.839 Positive effects from those few blocks. 112 00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:04.120 I personally wouldn't want to be the one walking those 113 00:06:04.600 --> 00:06:07.040 the streets you might have you might have somebody that 114 00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:12.000 might not be a big fan, you know, cause you 115 00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.160 cause you concern, shall I say, down in those areas 116 00:06:15.199 --> 00:06:17.160 you might feel a little uncovered at times. 117 00:06:17.279 --> 00:06:19.240 Well, you know, I was Sergeant Dan Hill's facts are 118 00:06:19.279 --> 00:06:22.920 stubborn things, and when I had your successful successor in 119 00:06:23.000 --> 00:06:27.040 title on Officer ken Kober, he related the fact that 120 00:06:27.399 --> 00:06:29.480 in the first six months of this year there were 121 00:06:29.519 --> 00:06:33.319 one one hundred car break ins, which means you're heading 122 00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:36.360 toward over two thousand car break ins. We're going to 123 00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:39.639 head toward about four hundred wounded, about eighty to ninety 124 00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:43.519 will be killed. The burglaries and rocks through windows to steel. 125 00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.360 The liquor is unbridled. Channel five last night had some 126 00:06:46.680 --> 00:06:50.480 well intended I'm sure, a liberal Democratic female woman operating 127 00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:53.040 some sort of a dress shop on Vine Street saying 128 00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:55.680 she'd been broken into four times since the first of 129 00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:58.240 the year, and at some point she quit calling the 130 00:06:58.279 --> 00:07:01.160 police because there's nothing, nothing that they're going to do. 131 00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:04.279 And it's because when the arrest are made, you get 132 00:07:04.319 --> 00:07:07.319 to juvenile court or common police court, and the criminals 133 00:07:07.319 --> 00:07:09.959 are out before the paperwork is done. Then one sentencing 134 00:07:10.040 --> 00:07:13.920 takes place, nothing occurs. And so for those who say 135 00:07:13.920 --> 00:07:17.800 it's political, it really isn't. Twenty years ago the Democrats 136 00:07:17.839 --> 00:07:20.920 controlled everything in the city of Cincinnati and things are 137 00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:25.240 not bad. They've gone from Democrats to progressives, to Marxist 138 00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:29.639 to communists to keep going further left. And that, mom, Donna, 139 00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:32.639 you think it's possible to be a communist elected? The 140 00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:36.000 answer is yes. And so what is the sergeant dan 141 00:07:36.120 --> 00:07:41.360 Hill's solution to rampant, unbridled crime, mobs of teenagers taking 142 00:07:41.399 --> 00:07:45.800 over streets, whether it's into Oakley or in Clifton or 143 00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:50.319 on the banks. What is the Dan Hill's solution? Because 144 00:07:50.519 --> 00:07:53.720 if it in politics, I think Charlie Luken was, for example, 145 00:07:54.040 --> 00:07:57.000 I think he was a Democrat, and I think Brendan 146 00:07:57.079 --> 00:08:00.720 Cole was a Democrat. I don't know about Tom Striker politics, 147 00:08:00.720 --> 00:08:04.160 probably a Democrat. And so what changed in twenty years 148 00:08:04.160 --> 00:08:07.199 The politics are the same but the results are different. 149 00:08:07.519 --> 00:08:10.519 Why well, Willie. 150 00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:13.720 I think you have so many issues to just brush 151 00:08:13.759 --> 00:08:16.399 on them. You just have the rot and decay of 152 00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:19.920 society that continues to go further and further left. I 153 00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:22.199 was talking to a police friend just earlier this morning 154 00:08:22.240 --> 00:08:26.079 and saying, like, how many generations has it been where 155 00:08:26.120 --> 00:08:30.120 there is not a mother and father involved in, you know, 156 00:08:30.160 --> 00:08:32.639 the raising of kids. I started the mean streets of 157 00:08:32.639 --> 00:08:37.000 Cincinnati in nineteen eighty seven, and sometimes the bad guys 158 00:08:37.000 --> 00:08:39.399 to deal with, you know, they had a mother that 159 00:08:39.600 --> 00:08:40.759 cared or something that. 160 00:08:40.879 --> 00:08:41.919 We could report to. 161 00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:44.720 I remember working with this old old policeman, Dave Shaum, 162 00:08:44.759 --> 00:08:47.440 God rest his soul. He we used to threaten bad 163 00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:50.519 guys he knew with telling their mothers on him, and they. 164 00:08:50.440 --> 00:08:52.720 Would, they would, they would, don't do that, don't do 165 00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:53.200 that offer. 166 00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:55.320 I don't tell my mom, you know, I'll get that 167 00:08:55.360 --> 00:08:57.399 warrant taken care of. Well, let's go take care of it. 168 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:01.159 And how much that's changed. There was always a mother, 169 00:09:01.279 --> 00:09:05.759 maybe a grandmother, maybe a grandfather on occasions that was involved. 170 00:09:05.759 --> 00:09:09.000 But now you have you have so many generations as 171 00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:12.320 the generations turnover quickly because you have babies having babies, 172 00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:15.679 And that polease friend out I was talking to now, 173 00:09:15.720 --> 00:09:18.600 he says, he says, do you remember when you were 174 00:09:18.600 --> 00:09:20.919 a young policemen. He had talk to the kids, and 175 00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:24.080 they would aspire to be a baseball player, football player, 176 00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:27.240 basketball player, something like that. He says, Now these kids 177 00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:31.320 aspire to be thugs. That's what they want. They want 178 00:09:31.399 --> 00:09:35.080 to be thugs. They have no other hero worship than 179 00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:39.320 the thuggery around them. So you have societal rot. And 180 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:41.720 you know, the fact that we don't take care of 181 00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:43.440 the little things anymore leads. 182 00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:46.399 To societal rot. Look at the homeless stuff down that time. 183 00:09:46.240 --> 00:09:49.240 You brought up my front line advisor's work. I often 184 00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:55.679 represent correction deputies and predisciplinary hearings and the third shifters 185 00:09:55.720 --> 00:09:58.639 have early morning hearings, and I'll be down there and 186 00:09:58.759 --> 00:10:01.039 walk around see all the home. Well this is not 187 00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:03.679 this morning, but yesterday morning. And uh, I had hearings 188 00:10:03.679 --> 00:10:06.279 both mornings. I'm walking and it's still, you know, just 189 00:10:06.320 --> 00:10:07.200 now getting a. 190 00:10:07.240 --> 00:10:08.240 Little haze of light. 191 00:10:08.799 --> 00:10:12.480 And in the little pocket of a business was a 192 00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:15.720 man sleeping. And that man, well he was only half 193 00:10:15.720 --> 00:10:18.559 asleep because he had his jars down and let me 194 00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:19.320 see radio. 195 00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:21.720 He was giving himself some. 196 00:10:21.759 --> 00:10:26.120 Pleasure as he lay there on his side, facing into 197 00:10:26.159 --> 00:10:27.320 the into the door. 198 00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:29.600 And I think, well, you know. I guess in fact. 199 00:10:29.559 --> 00:10:32.080 It's become these folks bedroom. So if that's how he 200 00:10:32.159 --> 00:10:35.879 wakes up, uh doing that. But but I just thought 201 00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:38.960 of the rot of of the inner city into the decay. 202 00:10:39.000 --> 00:10:42.240 And there's probably a couple other homeless people sleeping within. 203 00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:43.320 Sight of of this. 204 00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:45.440 So do you do you want to have a business, 205 00:10:45.519 --> 00:10:48.039 Willie where you come down to unlock your doors and 206 00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:52.639 there's uh, there's some great big fellow there lay playing 207 00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:57.240 and made bed bed way your your entrance way, and 208 00:10:57.240 --> 00:10:59.519 and he's and he's sitting there, I. 209 00:10:59.399 --> 00:11:01.120 Don't know, thinking of. 210 00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:07.120 Thinking of some sort of pornographic thing in his. 211 00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:10.519 Mind while he's a pleasuring off, making self feel making 212 00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:11.639 himself feel comfortable. 213 00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:15.759 Well, Sergeant Daniels, you brought up quality of life. And 214 00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:18.200 I've said this for the last few years. It's the 215 00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:21.840 broken window theory. Take care of the small stuff that 216 00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:24.000 so it doesn't metasticize the large stuff. 217 00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:24.600 It used to be. 218 00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:27.679 We had a really tough, I think cruel sentencing judge 219 00:11:27.759 --> 00:11:30.759 named Jack Rosen who would put people in jail in 220 00:11:30.799 --> 00:11:33.360 the first defense for not having a driver's license for 221 00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:36.919 six months. Now cops in Cincinnati aren't pulling people over 222 00:11:37.039 --> 00:11:40.279 because it's a pain in the neck. Let me have 223 00:11:40.360 --> 00:11:42.799 your license and proof of insurance. Well I don't have 224 00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:45.159 a license. Well where's your license. I'm not sure you 225 00:11:45.240 --> 00:11:47.720 have proof of insurance. No, let me run. What's your name? 226 00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:48.799 I don't want to give you my name. 227 00:11:48.919 --> 00:11:49.519 What's your data? 228 00:11:49.559 --> 00:11:51.360 Broth? I might give you my data birth and so 229 00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:54.159 suddenly then you tell somebody I'm gonna pull you out 230 00:11:54.159 --> 00:11:56.360 of the car and I'm gonna find out who you are. 231 00:11:56.440 --> 00:11:57.919 Well, none of that happens today. 232 00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:00.320 And so it was a sense that when we pull 233 00:12:00.440 --> 00:12:04.080 large peoples over, people over for minor traffic violations, it 234 00:12:04.200 --> 00:12:06.440 leads to this, Then it leads to that, and then 235 00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:08.879 it leads to this. So we have large numbers of 236 00:12:08.919 --> 00:12:11.639 curfew violators, which they used to have rec centers to 237 00:12:11.679 --> 00:12:13.600 take the kids to rec centers have their parents can 238 00:12:13.679 --> 00:12:15.799 pick them up, But they don't do that anymore. I 239 00:12:15.840 --> 00:12:19.559 see open air drug sales at Washington Park and open 240 00:12:19.559 --> 00:12:22.039 air marijuana use. I go up to two cops in 241 00:12:22.159 --> 00:12:24.759 duty's sitting there. I'm watching this family draw. All of 242 00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:27.279 them are smoking pot. He said, well, we don't enforce 243 00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:29.279 that anymore. I said, well, you know, it is a 244 00:12:29.320 --> 00:12:31.919 state criminal statute. He said, but we're told not to 245 00:12:32.000 --> 00:12:36.240 enforce that anymore. Drunkenness, homelessness, bricks through windows, the little 246 00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:38.480 things lead to bigger things. And then when they do 247 00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:41.679 arrest somebody, ken Kober tells me that to get a 248 00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:46.159 bond set, it's always no bond. Hell A magistrate Anita Birding, 249 00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:49.399 about two weeks ago set a low bond on some 250 00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:51.840 eighteen year old that shot a fourteen year old in 251 00:12:51.879 --> 00:12:54.600 the back of the head and robbed them. And that 252 00:12:54.679 --> 00:12:57.000 kid's out on the street with his gun. The Ryan 253 00:12:57.120 --> 00:13:00.360 Hinton model just turn eighteen years old. Life of I'm 254 00:13:00.639 --> 00:13:03.039 and the social media postings have him what looks like 255 00:13:03.080 --> 00:13:07.080 the Fredo Bandino with numerous guns hanging from him as 256 00:13:07.080 --> 00:13:09.360 if it's a compliment. So you take care of the 257 00:13:09.440 --> 00:13:12.399 small stuff, that doesn't become the big stuff. Now we 258 00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:14.919 don't do the small stuff, it becomes the big stuff 259 00:13:15.039 --> 00:13:17.440 when the big stuff happens. Shoot somebody in the back 260 00:13:17.480 --> 00:13:21.080 of the head. They were outn bond anyway, that's the problem. 261 00:13:21.080 --> 00:13:22.960 They're not even taking care of the big stuff. And 262 00:13:23.360 --> 00:13:26.759 I will you know you you bring me back to 263 00:13:27.120 --> 00:13:29.720 the good old days. I remember, Judge Rosen, I'm sure 264 00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:35.759 you remember Judge hammerm Hard, Harry mcawain absolutely absolutely, yes, Uh, 265 00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:40.240 A couple others you know that that were just fabulous 266 00:13:40.279 --> 00:13:42.080 that you know, when we walked back from the room, 267 00:13:42.480 --> 00:13:44.759 we we knew the bad we knew the bad guy 268 00:13:44.919 --> 00:13:49.200 was was going to regret their actions to some degree. 269 00:13:49.480 --> 00:13:51.759 And that that's that's why I said, it's so it's so. 270 00:13:51.759 --> 00:13:55.240 Many societal issues. I don't know where to begin. 271 00:13:55.320 --> 00:13:57.240 You know, if you ask me what what would I do? 272 00:13:57.480 --> 00:13:59.840 I would do everything I could get our numbers back 273 00:13:59.879 --> 00:14:02.759 up up. I would do everything I could publicly front 274 00:14:02.840 --> 00:14:08.279 out the the the judges and the sheriff and the prosecutor, 275 00:14:08.360 --> 00:14:09.320 everything I could to. 276 00:14:09.240 --> 00:14:11.080 Get them to get as busy as they could. 277 00:14:11.399 --> 00:14:14.200 And then I would probably explore putting more and more 278 00:14:14.279 --> 00:14:18.279 folks out there. And this is this is after the 279 00:14:18.279 --> 00:14:20.080 the murder of the of the gym owner. 280 00:14:20.120 --> 00:14:21.639 I I was thinking. 281 00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:26.720 Why why not have more people out there in our 282 00:14:26.840 --> 00:14:29.879 our criminal apprehension units to where we're out there looking 283 00:14:29.919 --> 00:14:32.840 for all these wanted folks, because we know we got hundreds, 284 00:14:32.840 --> 00:14:35.360 we got thousands of people wanted. And that's what they 285 00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:40.879 were talking about. The bad guy in that case, Mordecai Black, 286 00:14:40.960 --> 00:14:44.559 he was he was wanted, but he wasn't necessarily. I know, 287 00:14:44.600 --> 00:14:46.440 the cofferme on the computer once. 288 00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:49.960 But even going to the radar of the of the. 289 00:14:50.000 --> 00:14:53.759 Of our Major Apprehensions unit, they are too busy looking 290 00:14:53.799 --> 00:14:56.679 for people who shot people kill people. If we would 291 00:14:56.759 --> 00:14:59.000 expand those units and go out there and just start 292 00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:01.519 going after all of our violent want it's felon's and 293 00:15:01.600 --> 00:15:03.919 get them off the streets because they're the ones that 294 00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:06.440 are repeat offending it over and over and over again. 295 00:15:06.639 --> 00:15:09.399 But it doesn't work unless the next steps of the 296 00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:12.320 justice system are also intact. And there's not a whole 297 00:15:12.320 --> 00:15:14.000 lot you can do about that if you're. 298 00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:15.000 The police chief. 299 00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:16.840 But if I was the police chief, I would do 300 00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:19.039 everything I could do at my end, Like I said, 301 00:15:19.080 --> 00:15:21.480 I'd get those numbers back up by pressure city Hall 302 00:15:21.559 --> 00:15:24.320 to make those numbers greater, because when you have a 303 00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:26.799 lack of the back end of the justice system, you 304 00:15:26.840 --> 00:15:28.799 more or less need an occupying army. 305 00:15:28.840 --> 00:15:30.480 And that's what they're showing you. 306 00:15:30.919 --> 00:15:33.759 And yeah, it's probably business is probably three CDC that's 307 00:15:33.799 --> 00:15:37.440 forcing the officers to be there. But there should be 308 00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:40.440 officers like that and all sorts of problem areas around 309 00:15:40.519 --> 00:15:43.879 the city, and we should be locking folks up and 310 00:15:44.279 --> 00:15:47.399 back to the pressure campaign. Doing everything you can from 311 00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:51.000 you know her end, from the police chief's end. There's 312 00:15:51.039 --> 00:15:53.320 more that could be done. You got to get the mayor. 313 00:15:53.480 --> 00:15:55.480 You got to get the mayor fired up. He's got 314 00:15:55.519 --> 00:15:59.600 to start confronting the county officials. He's got to startling 315 00:15:59.600 --> 00:16:01.279 against the Democratic buddies. 316 00:16:01.679 --> 00:16:03.559 And and that's not gonna have a witness. 317 00:16:03.679 --> 00:16:05.120 That's not gonna happen right now. 318 00:16:05.159 --> 00:16:08.039 I know bym wishful thinking. Give me a little witchful thinking. 319 00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:09.720 Here, Sergeant Hills. I'll say this. 320 00:16:09.840 --> 00:16:12.240 If somebody wants to break into a business or into 321 00:16:12.320 --> 00:16:15.960 a car, which happens two thousand times every year, don't 322 00:16:16.000 --> 00:16:19.639 do it between four to twelve, four pm to midnight 323 00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:23.080 on Maine and Vine Street. Wait till one am in 324 00:16:23.120 --> 00:16:26.399 the morning, and you're good to go. Instead of saying, 325 00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:29.399 you know what, it's smoking mirrors, it's not reality. 326 00:16:31.399 --> 00:16:33.879 It is. Indeed, it's smoking mirrors. But I think you 327 00:16:33.919 --> 00:16:34.679 can be a little bit. 328 00:16:34.600 --> 00:16:37.240 More comfortable if you're if you're going downtown to have 329 00:16:37.399 --> 00:16:42.000 yourself a cocktail, and that's that's step sependlorus. 330 00:16:42.039 --> 00:16:44.320 I gotta go to Peppin Dolores and get some shrimp, 331 00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:47.840 flombay and Pasta Bolina's, and I feel good about it. 332 00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:50.159 Just get out by midnight because that's when the streets 333 00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:52.799 are turned over, all right, Sergeant Dan Hills, I was 334 00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:54.960 going to talk to you about Covington police who have 335 00:16:55.039 --> 00:16:57.720 become a big issue beating the crap out of protesters. 336 00:16:57.960 --> 00:17:00.519 In Cincinnati, they give them little paper tick. It's in 337 00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:03.840 Covington they kick your ass, and that's the way things are. 338 00:17:03.879 --> 00:17:05.680 The poor cops going to be in the in the 339 00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:08.759 crosshairs of Davey Muir of ABC News until he's fired. 340 00:17:09.079 --> 00:17:11.720 We'll talk about that some other day. But Sergeant Dan 341 00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:14.960 Hill's frontline advisors, thirty five years in the business, a 342 00:17:14.960 --> 00:17:17.680 proud resident of Warren County. Thanks for coming on the 343 00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:20.319 Bill Cunningham Show. And sergeant you're a great American. Thank 344 00:17:20.359 --> 00:17:20.920 you very much. 345 00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:23.960 God bless you you William, God bless America. 346 00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:24.680 Thank you very much. 347 00:17:24.680 --> 00:17:27.160 It's been several days, but the national news has figured 348 00:17:27.200 --> 00:17:32.000 out there's a different approach to lawbreakers in Covington as 349 00:17:32.000 --> 00:17:35.039 opposed as Cincinnati and Cincinnati they hand you a daisy 350 00:17:35.119 --> 00:17:38.839 and a piece of paper. In Covington, they kick your ass. 351 00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:42.400 Let's continue with more, Bill Cunningham News. Next, that's your 352 00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:44.839 home of the Reds. Maybe a win tonight in Washington 353 00:17:44.880 --> 00:17:50.160 on news radio seven hundred WLW. All right, now the 354 00:17:50.200 --> 00:17:53.160 Great American here and a little bit news at the 355 00:17:53.160 --> 00:17:56.079 bottom there. Relative to Trey Hendrickson. You know, I'm kind 356 00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:58.640 of old school when it comes to honoring a contract, 357 00:17:58.680 --> 00:18:03.279 and I know the normal procedures in the no Fun League, 358 00:18:03.319 --> 00:18:06.240 the National Football League is not don or contracts and 359 00:18:06.279 --> 00:18:08.200 a threaten to hold out to you get more money, 360 00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:12.680 and other franchises normally collapsed, like the Steelers gave TJ. 361 00:18:12.839 --> 00:18:16.960 Watt guaranteed money of forty one million dollars guaranteed for 362 00:18:17.000 --> 00:18:20.440 two years plus this year, he's going to get over 363 00:18:20.440 --> 00:18:24.240 one hundred million dollars and guaranteed money. And Trey Henderson 364 00:18:24.319 --> 00:18:26.079 is probably as good or better than TJ. 365 00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:26.599 Watt. 366 00:18:27.240 --> 00:18:31.599 Nonetheless, the dealers collapsed and said, Okay, Parsons in Dallas 367 00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:34.319 is going to get some big time deal guaranteed money 368 00:18:34.359 --> 00:18:38.240 to play football, and TJ. Watt the contract went through 369 00:18:38.319 --> 00:18:42.559 this year. Parsons contract goes through this year. Cleveland had 370 00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:45.720 a great edge Russia that they basically said, you know what, 371 00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:48.359 let's throw up the old contract, give you a new one. 372 00:18:48.599 --> 00:18:51.599 But Mike Brown doesn't go that way. Mike Brown said 373 00:18:51.680 --> 00:18:54.920 yesterday at the Mock Turtle Luncheon that he would anticipate 374 00:18:55.000 --> 00:19:00.480 the deal deal with Trey Henderson would get done by whenesday. Well, 375 00:19:00.480 --> 00:19:04.839 here we are Tuesday, and Hendrickson's the NFL sacked leader, 376 00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:08.559 has had recently as good a year as TJ. Watt, 377 00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:10.720 and he's going to make less than half the money, 378 00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:13.599 and so he doesn't like it. So he told the 379 00:19:13.640 --> 00:19:16.799 team he just heard the news that he's left Dodge. 380 00:19:16.799 --> 00:19:22.720 He's going back home and not going to get done supposedly, Well, 381 00:19:22.960 --> 00:19:25.079 the fact of the matter is Trey Hendrickson signed a 382 00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:29.359 contract to play this year for the Cincinnati Bengals, and 383 00:19:29.400 --> 00:19:32.240 he's in order to earn that seventeen million dollars, he's 384 00:19:32.279 --> 00:19:35.079 got to show up and go to work and do whatever. 385 00:19:35.160 --> 00:19:36.839 And then the Bengals have said, look at the end 386 00:19:36.880 --> 00:19:40.519 of this year, and you keep your performance where it 387 00:19:40.559 --> 00:19:44.160 is now and you'll be paid commensurate with Miles Garrett, 388 00:19:44.160 --> 00:19:48.000 et cetera. And if not, we'll see what happens. And 389 00:19:48.079 --> 00:19:52.079 Mike Brown said yesterday spent a long negotiations. Hendrickson is 390 00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:55.279 a fine player. He's a good guy. We want him here. Well, 391 00:19:55.279 --> 00:19:56.920 you're going to try to make sense of it from 392 00:19:56.920 --> 00:20:00.200 our perspective. We'll see, And he said, I'm I'm not 393 00:20:00.279 --> 00:20:02.200 persuaded that it's not going to get done, But as 394 00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:04.799 far as I'm concerned, the sooner the better. The odds 395 00:20:04.839 --> 00:20:08.880 of him holding out the entire season is quite rare, 396 00:20:09.440 --> 00:20:12.599 like a Carson Palmer situation. So we'll see what happens 397 00:20:12.599 --> 00:20:15.519 down the road. But when you honor a contract, it 398 00:20:15.559 --> 00:20:19.400 means your word means something, and don't sign the contract otherwise, 399 00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:23.319 in which case don't have to worry about it. Well, 400 00:20:23.640 --> 00:20:28.000 similar to Stephen Colbert, Who's not funny anymore, CBS Late 401 00:20:28.079 --> 00:20:32.039
