Hey, it's Andrew Klaven. Welcome to this week's interview with retired Chicago Police

Detective Jim Sherlock. As you know, Chicago is out of control. The crime in Chicago has

It's pretty famous for a lot of the Martin Luther King marches, civil rights marches.

Great place to grow up, but it was a tough area. So I'm 14 years old and I'm walking down the street,

only a few blocks in my house and a car pulled up and some guys jumped out and they surrounded me

what the heck is a 14-year-old kid has? So I didn't have anything. So they they stabbed me anyway.
