[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The tax base in ward 3 is going to up and move if this doesn’t change fast. [/quote] Many in the DC judiciary are likely closer to JLG in outlook and given that they are federally appointed, with 15 year terms, nothing will change. SJ types have Superior Court, staff USAO and AG's office as career prosecutors and hold the Council. No change in Mayor or fiddling with MPD staffing will change the more powerful levers, mayors actually have little influence over the criminal justice system. There are no signs of it changing at all. After being summoned to the Hill, the USAO briefly increased the prosecution rate to a point where it was still a complete outlier vis a vis other D cities, then after a press conference, allowed it to drop further again. The cynicism is something. The case above re: the Days Inn shooter still being on the street to witness tamper and commit more violent crimes is quite revealing about how the system ACTUALLY works.
