## Resource

Madison police caused Richard Lee Johnson’s death in 2024, not a drug overdose as the county medical examiner concluded at the time. That’s according to a bombshell report this week from the city’s independent police watchdog. Interim Independent Monitor Aeiramique Glass joined our News Producer Faye Parks this afternoon for a closer look at their findings – and the systemic changes she’s recommended to address gaps in MPD policy.
