Listen Frontier: TPD ‘Buying Stripes,’ prison reform, jail deaths

In the wake of the investigation into allegations that Tulsa Police Department officers have for decades paid superiors to retire, a number of city officials have questioned the practice, referred to by some as ‘Buying Stripes.’

In today’s episode of Listen Frontier, NewsOn6 reporter Allison Harris, Frontier Creative Director Cary Aspinwall, and host R.J. Young discuss that story, as well as ongoing prison reform efforts we reported on earlier this week, and today’s story about a Tulsa Jail inmate who reportedly attempted suicide there and later died in a local hospital.
