Well now we find out that just last week an elderly woman called and reported a rape and this time it took the police 3 hours and 6 minutes to respond. Wait, What? Yep, after a year of supposedly reviewing the dispatch and police response times they are far worse. Hey the good news as reported by the Milwaukee PD was that after a squad was finally dispatched to the call it only took 6 minutes to respond!!!! Really? What about the 3 hours it took to actually dispatch a squad?
So what are the police doing about it? Wait for it.

"The Milwaukee Police Department is reviewing both our dispatch prioritization protocol and the handling of this specific call for service to ensure policy was followed and determine whether policy revision is needed, as the time from the initial call to the police and the dispatch of a squad was excessive," said Lt. Mark Stanmeyer.
