In the last year, police departments across the country experienced a wave of criticism and condemnation for many of their practices, and that has caused a big fallout. Many departments have seen their forces decimated by retirements and outright quitting, and countless departments are having troubles getting anyone to join.

Clay Cozart is the president of the Akron FOP, and he joined the Ray Horner Morning Show to share those sentiments. Cozart says Akron is having a tough time recruiting anyone to join their force, especially minority hires, which seem to be a constant thread in other cities and townships across America.
