Behind the Badge Illinois goes back to the listener mailbag in part two of Episode 10 as our panel is asked, "Why can't the police do something about all the panhandlers on the sides of the roads in town?"

Have you ever wondered why police are limited in what they can do about panhandlers? Several factors play a role in what officers can and cannot do. Our panel of law enforcement experts weigh in and share real stories from the field.

Host David Hochberg is joined by co-hosts Highland Park Police Chief Lou Jogmen, Dekalb Police Chief David Byrd, and O'Fallon Police Chief Kirk Brueggeman.
