Investigative Reporter at News 5 Cleveland
CLEVELAND — Big changes are happening in the way University Circle Police respond to metal health calls. This all comes on the heels of a News 5 Investigation into the violent arrest of a woman in a Cleveland cemetery who was experiencing mental health problems. Now, UC is hoping a new hire will help in these kinds of situations.
Our investigation showed officers John Garbo, Bradley Nicholson and Timothy Caine had been trained on how to handle mental health calls, but the way Wilson was handled that day did not follow that training. It will be similar to what Shaker Heights has donewith it’s mental health responses when it hired a trained social worker to go out with police, fire, or ambulance calls when mental health expertise is needed.
'People in crisis feel respected': Responding differently to mental health calls We asked for on-camera interviews with the new UC Police Chief, but he was not available, and we were told the new President of University Circle, Kate Borders, was not in the office today.
