NYPD's New Head of Intelligence and Counterterrorism
Over the summer, NYPD Police Commissioner Edward Caban appointed Rebecca Weiner as the agency’s Deputy Commissioner of Intelligence and Counterterrorism – the largest counterterrorism and intelligence gathering operation in American policing. Weiner joined the NYPD in 2006, and has a long track record of investigating right-wing extremism, the Islamic State terrorist group Al Qaeda and other forms of terrorism, including cyberterrorism. Tonight, Deputy Commissioner Weiner joins MetroFocus to discuss how terrorist and violent threats have evolved since 9/11, the consent decree governing the NYPD’s surveillance of political and religious groups, and her own grandfather’s personal history of fleeing the Holocaust and working to develop the atomic bomb as part of the Manhattan Project.
"My Partner, My Enemy: An Unflinching View of Domestic Violence and New Ways To Protect Victims"
John Michael Leventhal, a retired New York State Supreme Court judge and the author of My Partner, My Enemy: An Unflinching View of Domestic Violence and New Ways to Protect Victims draws on his years as the "Judge of Abuse," when he presided over the first domestic violence court. He talks about a history of male privilege, power control, and when physical coercive overtones become criminal. Leventhal expands on why there was a need for a felony Domestic Violence Court, and he makes suggestions on how to improve the laws to better protect victims of domestic violence.
"Monstrous: The Lore, Gore, and Science Behind Your Favorite Monsters"
It's Halloween. Tonight ghoulish vampires, werewolves and zombies abound as we look at “the lore, gore, and science behind your favorite monsters.”
