About this listen

Join the hosts, chiefs, with You And The Law Podcast on Wednesday at 6PM CST as they discuss the Use of the Military in Civil Law Enforcement. Recently, the police chief requested that the New Mexico Governor deploy some members of the Albuquerque National Guard to assist the police department. They are needed to help the strained police force confront a crisis of violent crime and fentanyl use.


But critics say the Guard’s deployment to the streets of Albuquerque puts citizen-soldiers into a fraught role. Should they be required to wear body cameras, as Albuquerque police officers are? What if they get into a physical confrontation while securing the perimeter of a volatile crime scene?
