Story is from 2016. Police evidence lockers are located deep inside department buildings; this was obviously an inside job.

These thefts occurred regularly when Marrion Barry was mayor.

Sad they are still happening today.

Back in the late 90's, I had to go to 4th District HQ on Georgia Ave for a copy of a police report for a car break in.

I was looking for the mens room and went down a hallway. At the end of the hallway, a door to the outside was being propped open (so staff could go out for smoke breaks and still be near the phone) with a Rubbermaid trash can FILLED to the top with guns.

Just sitting there, visible to the whole world or anyone walking by outside. No one watching them.

That's DC.

Barry was last mayor in 1998. Things have changed since then.

But have they changed for the better? If so, by much or only slightly?
