Off the Record: On the Air – Is Nashville Still Safe?

The panel dives into the rise in violent crime, low bonds, and a justice system many feel is failing. Dennis and Jeff call out lenient judges and a DA reluctant to prosecute. Lori warns that fear is changing how people live—and women are especially vulnerable. Sheila shares real stories from local women targeted in broad daylight, showing that public safety is no longer guaranteed in the city once dubbed “It.” Lori discusses the cultural pressure on women to be polite—even when their safety is at risk. With sharp insights and raw honesty, the team urges listeners to stay alert, demand accountability, and know who’s in charge of public safety.
