NBC Connecticut   Host: Mike Hydeck

We are digging a little deeper into the recent spate of school threats and what can be done to stop them. Waterbury Police Chief Fernando Spagnolo sits down with Mike to discuss the strain these types on incidents have on police resources, and the challenge of keeping up with social media. Sen. Lisa Seminara (R- Avon), ranking member on the Education Committee and a licensed clinical social worker, and Mike talk about the importance of educating students on the consequences of these crimes.

NBC CT political reporter Mike Savino fills us in on the recent report on the state’s Social Equity Committee for adult-use cannabis, and why the Comptroller thinks it’s falling short of its goals.
