Mary Mitchell: Church should aid police in solving crimes

Mitchell has the right idea. If we have people who are unwilling to talk to the police about a crime they knew was committed, hopefully they can talk to a minister they can trust. Should neighborhood churches be safe havens for those who have information but refuses to talk to police?

Found this column through our new Blotter page!

  1. Well most of our churches are safe havens for information. A large number of African Americans trust Ministers more than they do lawyers and police. They feel turning themselves into Ministers ensure that the police will not harm them.
