Former Saint Paul City Council member Dave Thune pulls up a chair at the Crabby Coffee Shop to talk about what’s happening at City Hall: Mayor Kaohly Her, Police Chief Axel Henry, the lawsuit, and what it takes to actually run a city. Thune spent two decades on the council representing Ward 2, downtown, West Seventh, the West Side. He knows how council, mayor, and police actually work when the cameras are off. Kenny and Jay get into the current fight: Henry’s lawsuit alleging sexual harassment, unwanted contact, and retaliation; the city’s investigation that found “offensive and inappropriate behavior” but did not substantiate harassment or retaliation; and the budget pressure on sergeants and commanders. They talk city council dynamics, how a mayor and police chief have to work together (or don’t), public safety staffing, and the politics of a high-profile lawsuit that landed days after the city released a short summary of its report.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
