Guest: Benjamin Gonzales & Monay Duvendack 

This is the fifth week of the fall 2023 semester at Heartland Community College and Dewhitt’s class is studying police oversight. A lot of people don’t realize that some cities have police review boards. Bingham discusses with two of his students, Monay and Benjamin, that a civilian review board is generally charged with the duty of reviewing complaints and making recommendations as to disciplinary action after the police department has completed its own investigation and made a disciplinary recommendation. The following is discussed: 

•  Monay and Benjamin’s career path
• Why they are taking a criminal justice course
• What high School they attended
• Their favorite due process right
• Police review boards
• Police accountability
• Police disciplinary action
• Benefits of police oversight
• Voting rights
• Legalization of marijuana
• Having an attitude “I am above the law”
• Black Lives Matter
• White Supremacy
• What they’d like to see the Biden administration accomplish
