[quote=Anonymous]Since violent crime seems to be on the rise again in DC, I was wondering why that is. I've generally been supportive of Chief Lanier, I'm not sure if anything on her end has changed, though the increase in crime seems to coincide with Mayor Bowser coming into office... That had me wondering if any Bowser policy changes were contributing to the uptick in crime. What I didn't realize until recently was that all adult felonies in DC are prosecuted by the US Attorneys office... And someone suggested the other day that they were dropping the ball after Holder left, resulting in violent felons ending up back on the streets in DC... I tried looking for prosecution/conviction stats to compare to the MPD crime and arrest stats to try and better understand the full picture but am still struggling with that. Does anyone have any good data or insights to what is going on?[/quote]
