For the last 13 years, the Seattle Police Department has answered directly to the federal government. But last week the consent decree ended. KUOW’s Amy Radil talks about why the decree happened, why it lasted so long and what might be next for police accountability in Seattle. We can only make Seattle Now because listeners support us.
