Show Notes

The D.C. police have been trying to fire an officer named Michael Thomas, but he’s managed to appeal and arbitrate his way out of it for 13 years. And he's not the only one. It’s a tale of public safety, organized labor, and how the city government works (or doesn’t) and Alex Koma from City Paper has reported out the whole crazy story.
