MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee Police Chief Jeffrey Norman and Milwaukee County Sheriff Denita Ball will be the featured guests for a special conversation, “An Ounce of Summer Prevention in Public Safety?” in an “On the Issues” program, Thursday, June 1, at 12:15 p.m. at Marquette Law School’s Eckstein Hall.
Derek Mosley, director of the Law School’s Lubar Center for Public Policy Research and Civic Education, will lead a conversation about public safety in the city and county. Norman and Ball will discuss reality versus perception, minimizing the increase in disorder that sometimes occurs in summer, and how Milwaukee fares compared with similar cities. The panelists will also discuss the Milwaukee Police Department’s 2023 Violent Crime Plan.
Registration for the free, public event is required and available online. Members of the media who are interested in attending should contact Kevin Conway, associate director of university communication, at kevin.m.conway@marquette.
