[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I regularly receive crime notices in my phone. I've recently noticed that there have been announcements of arrests made in carjackings, but that the PD that did the crime solving and arresting has been another jurisdiction (Baltimore, PG County, etc). Does MPD actually do any crime solving? [/quote]

The DC city council and mayor will not let MPD do their jobs:

- police are forbidden to engage in any vehicular pursuits.  Yes - if they witness a carjacking, they must allow the carjacker to drive off.

- police were recently ordered to allow street vendors to sell stolen goods.  MPD can’t intervene.

- police have been ordered to treat anyone age 26 and under like other jurisdictions treat “juveniles” (18 and under) meaning no jail time and limited probation- at most - plus same day release for violent crimes.

MPD cannot do their jobs when the Council (with people like Allen and Nadeau on it) keep ordering the police not to do their jobs.[/quote]

Actually carjackers are followed by helicopters.[/quote]
