Beneath the Badge: Policing in Charlotte and Mecklenburg County

Saturday March 27th, 2010

Information:

Beneath the Badge, a partnership between the museum and the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department will highlight the history of our area’s law enforcement past. From morning roll call to night shift, visitors will glimpse the life of an officer on patrol. Words and pictures from actual local officers illustrate most days’ work, broken by the sudden surging adrenaline of intense situations. Special sections will provide an inside look at places like the crime labs and the communications center where 911 calls are answered. Beneath the Badge will also address some of the difficult topics that CMPD and the Charlotte community have endured.
