[quote=Anonymous]Maybe if USAO and AG actually prosecuted more than 33 and 47% of arrests, respectively, the closure rates would benefit. And if judges actually held violent criminals when warranted, esp when USAO begs, would benefit public safety.

MPD is only the first hurdle and the one that works the best at the moment. Everything upstream including the 1,000 unserved warrants, just in DC, many more unserved in NoVA and MoCo, is a disaster.

Maybe if more funds were shifted back to detective work, there would be a better closure rate. Maybe if the same adults and juveniles were not caught and released repeatedly, resources would be freed for additional closures? Maybe if Vice was put back in neighborhoods, would benefit closure rate?

Maybe if a higher closure rate was not seen as "ineguitable" by the Council, judges at DC SC and COA and the ACLU, DSA and activist crew, closure rates would increase?

Maybe now that there is a partially functioning lab after YEARS w/o, closure rates will increase?[/quote]
