The linked stories attribute the crime spike on Capitol Hill to the failure of the U.S. Attorney’s office to file charges. The result is that the word is out on the street that the Hill is a safe place for street crime, because you won’t be prosecuted. If true, this is an issue with the feds, not DC police or DC government. It would be appropriate for a congressional subcommittee to inquire whether the Obama DOJ has changed policy.

"...many criminals were given free passes by the U.S. Attorney’s Office, which has jurisdiction over the city."

Hmmmm.

Not new.

My First time ever visiting the Georgetown campus, Aug 1993, was a few days after a student couple returning from a date at night were robbed and had their throats slashed. Fatally.
