That shift — repeated by prosecutors in many other cities — didn’t just reduce jail populations. In Baltimore, nearly all categories of crime have since declined, confirming to Mosby what she and criminal justice experts have argued for years: Crackdowns on quality-of-life crimes are not necessary for stopping more serious crime. How stupid...The crime hasn't declined...The penalties have declined...Why not eliminate those laws that are responsible for the arrests???

Lets see how those property values do, or development projects, or new jobs produced in Baltimore when there are hookers and dealers working in broad daylight.

I’d have guessed that was Detroit or the south side of Shitcago by the looks of it... (and I’ve seen the south side of Shitcago.)

that's what happens when you stop arresting and prosecuting people for them! DUH!!! According to the article, it was other crimes, "violent crime is down 20 percent and property crime has declined 36 percent" that were reduced. Whether they're telling the truth or not is another matter, but they weren't talking about reductions in drug arrests.

Get out and go where? The criminal democrat party, supported by the useful idiot democrat voters, is working to make this a reality for the entire country.

“””In Baltimore, nearly all categories of crime have since declined”””
When the police do not file a crime report the number of crimes do go down.
To: Diogenesis
That’s a bingo! What we are experiencing is modern day warfare where government itself turns against the people and wages war against them. All the while, the useful idiots who keep telling themselves they are helping, continue to vote for the totalitarian government.

I wouldn’t trust them to tell the truth if I asked how they were doing, but let’s not get caught in the trap of answering points they’re not making.

If everyone is locked down, maybe thay is why many crimes are fown. That is assuming they are telling the truth. Given that most crime is committed by Democrats, they would have no reason to lie...

This should make Baltimore a place not to go to.

Just this week, Michigan will begin letting a defendant refuse probation. Shoplifting will be issued a ticket to appear. A fail to appear requires that the court not issue a warrant for 48 hours. If a person voluntarily appears to answer an outstanding warrant, the Judge has two hours to arraign him, or it’s a personal recognizance bond. There is more.

This is similar to the mantra noted by Stalin and others that it does not matter who votes. It matters who counts the votes.
It is amazing how much crime levels drop when the government no longer tallies the crimes that occur.

I was so hoping to visit Baltimore with my kids this summer to see all of the historic sites.
