You know the FBI. You've seen them on the news and in TV shows and movies; but do you know what they really do? The FBI is teaming up with the Marquette University Police Department to put on the Future Law Enforcement Youth Academy (FLEYA), an overnight camp where students are chaperoned by sworn law enforcement and FBI employees. Joining us to talk about the program is Lt. Jill Weisensel from Marquette PD and special agent Mike Sheen with the FBI Milwaukee Evidence Response Team.

FLEYA takes place on the Marquette University campus July 8-12; it's open to Wisconsin high school students with a minimum GPA of 2.7. The deadline to apply is Friday, April 5. To apply, visit FBI.gov/Milwaukee.
