MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Five years before the Milwaukee Police Department (MPD) made a commitment to make 30% of recruits female by 2030, CBS 58 's Amanda Porterfield sat down with a group of high-ranking women in law enforcement. This month, we revisited that conversation eight years later to talk about their experience and where we are at today at the department.
