Adam Edelen on Crime

 

 


Police departments should reflect diversity of community

La Casita, a Latinx activist group, hosting a bilingual forum for the governor's race, brought up the issue of racial profiling, or "driving while brown," and asked the candidates what they would do to combat racial profiling within the Kentucky State Police.

Edelen said the issue stems from police departments that don't reflect the diversity of the communities they represent. He said if elected, he'd work to encourage young people of color to consider a career in law enforcement.
