The crime rate was certainly dropping in New York from 1990-1993 before Giuliani reached office:

The city's murder rate fell by 13.7 percent, robbery fell by 14.6 percent, burglary fell by 17.6 percent, and auto theft fell by 23.8 percent.

Giuliani was about as responsible for the drop in crime in New York as Clinton was for the economic growth in the 1990s.

If you honestly believe NY’s crime rate would have had the same trajectory under Dinkins as it had under Giuliani, I have a Nigerian financial advisor I’d like to introduce you to.
