At the request of a listener, Dave and Steve break down how jurisdiction works across law enforcement agencies in the United States. They explore the roles of university police, city police, county sheriffs, state police, and federal agencies, highlighting the types of calls they respond to and the responsibilities that define their authority.

The episode also sheds light on how these agencies cooperate, the behind-the-scenes conversations that determine who takes the lead on a case, and the process of establishing jurisdiction.
