Jim Gaudet(Hour 1b, c)

(Hour 1b) Jim Gaudet joined us to discuss the events at last week’s lockdown at Manchester High School West in this extended edition of Public Safety This Week.

Gaudet addressed important questions about the MPD response time and concerned parents arriving at the school to complicate matters.

We debated what Manchester can do to tighten up security without creating prisons, instead of schools.

(Hour 1c) Was a bearcat armored vehicle really necessary, or was it overkill?

What does the public need and not need to know about security procedures?

Should the Manchester Police Department include substations inside the public schools?
