Tom R. Tyler, a Yale Law School professor renowned for his research on procedural justice, joins psychologist Gregory Mitchell to dive deep into fair policing practices. They explore how proper procedures can improve public perception of legal authority, especially within marginalized communities. Tyler emphasizes the need for police training that fosters trust and reduces force incidents. The discussion also highlights the critical role of community engagement and the impact of high-profile violence on public confidence in law enforcement. It's a thought-provoking look at the intersection of justice, psychology, and policing.
