Gun violence in Apopka: Let's Talk About It

Posted

From Let's Talk About it with Rod Love and Greg Jackson

This Monday on “LET’S TALK ABOUT IT” with Rod Love and Greg Jackson, the “Dynamic Duo”, saddened and angered at the level of gun violence will simply make the case that, “We Are Better Than This!”

Not even a week into the 2020 New Year and there are three homicides in the Apopka area. Neighbors on the south side of Apopka are calling for a cease to the violence.

However, there are other questions that need to be asked and answered and Rod & Greg plan on doing exactly that.

Let’s Talk About, how law enforcement cannot be effective without a true partnership with the community. A partnership based on two-way accountability - law enforcement to the community and the community to law enforcement. Such a partnership will require the Orange County Sheriff's Department and its leadership to publicly reassure the community that the department is up to the task of aggressively working with the community to address violent crimes, including those in high risk communities.

Let’s Talk About the important roles of the Orange County Courts and the State Attorney’s Office in regard to public safety in general, and in areas with a high level of violent crime, in particular.
