A conversation with Cure Violence in wake of historic gang bust in Columbus

Last week, the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office, the FBI, DEA and other local law enforcement partners targeted two Columbus criminal street gangs suspected of trafficking in illegal drugs.

This week, WRBL sat down for an exclusive interview with two men who are fighting the growing gang issue on the street level.

Cure Violence co-founder Reggie Lewis and Cure Violence Coordinator Christopher Brown talked about the sting against the Zohannon and Crips gangs that resulted in more than 100 arrests – 31 here in Columbus.

They also talked about the gang problem on a deeper level.

Here’s that conversation. You can watch it in the video player above.
