2 Cops 1 Donut ep#0064: Do Business Owners and Police Relationships Lower Crime? with William Miller

In this episode, I speak with 67-year-old small business owner, William Miller. William owns a cowboy boot-making store called Way Out West Boots (https://wayoutwestboots.com/). This store is a pillar to Cow Town and Western heritage/culture. This family operation has roots that link back to the 1950s. We discuss the importance that police take the time to not just respond to calls to small businesses, but actually invest time into getting to know them. This interpersonal relationship-building with stakeholders could be a major contributing factor to the health of a city and lowering crime. We also discuss western history in boot making and just how awesome it is to take the time to get to know the source of the passion behind your small business owners. Truly an honor and a privilege to interview this man. One of the few remaining of a dying art.
