Western Illinois University vice president for student services Garry Johnson on Wednesday expressed concerns the television show would make Macomb and the university "look bad."
However, Deputy Chief Curt Barker said he's watched several episodes of the television show. He said he believes it does not cast any of the communities shown in a negative way.
Barker added the show follows up with defendants the police arrest during filming to see how their experience with the court system affected them.
