From the impact of Prop 36 to the future of crime prevention, this is a must-watch conversation for anyone invested in public safety, justice, and the rule of law.

----more----

Podcast Overview:

[02:30] - What is Prop 36?
Prop 36 addresses gaps left by Prop 47, aiming to reduce drug-related crime and homelessness.

[08:15] - How Prop 36 Works
Drug offenses can now be charged as felonies, but offenders can avoid jail by completing rehab.

[18:00] - Impact of Prop 47 & 57
Prop 47 & 57 led to rising theft, addiction, and homelessness, frustrating law enforcement.

[30:10] - Prop 36 & Retail Theft
Retailers like Target & Home Depot supported Prop 36 to combat rising shoplifting crimes.

[35:55] - Legislative Challenges

Episode 37 | The Gavin Newsom Flip-Flop Mar 12, 2025

The Brief: In this Lo & Order, SEBA Executive Director Lolita Harper dives into the ever-shifting political landscape, using Governor Gavin Newsom as a prime example of why politicians can’t always be trusted. Once a vocal supporter of defunding the police, Newsom has now done a complete 180—denouncing the movement he once championed. But was he ever really on board?

Lolita pulls back the curtain on Sacramento politics, exposing how elected officials often say one thing in front of the cameras while admitting something entirely different behind closed doors. As Newsom eyes a bigger national stage, his policy pivots raise a critical question: Are our leaders guided by principles, or just chasing poll numbers?

Episode 35 | Stop Weaponizing Law Enforcement for Political Agendas Mar 12, 2025

The Brief: Law enforcement has faced years of political weaponization, leaving officers caught in the crossfire of partisan agendas. We're making this message in response to recent press inquiries about preemptive pardons and their impact on law enforcement.

The hypocrisy is exhausting—leaders who once defunded and disrespected police are now pretending to champion law enforcement, using us as a political weapon to attack their opponents. This isn’t about taking sides; it’s about standing up for the men and women who serve with integrity and asking for the respect they deserve. Stop using law enforcement as a political tool—our profession and communities deserve better

On this episode of SEBA on DEMAND, we talk to SEBA Labor Representative Melissa Burroughs:

“The work I do at SEBA is extremely personal for me. I was a Deputy Sheriff for 17 years until I was medically retired in 2016. It was devastating, but it has given me the knowledge and experience to help others. Ultimately, I want our members to know they have resources and that they can call me anytime they have questions, or need help.”
