Because the VICTIMS are not out.
Re “Because the victims are not out”! Yes, plus the weather (we’ve had a lot of cold rain in the DC area. Smart crooks stay inside where it is warm. They know their victims are still going to be around when it warms up).
However, I wonder about the lesser crimes that DeBlasio and this commie/criminal crowd don’t want prosecuted - re Metro rail crimes, minor drug possession, DUI, drunk in public, assaults, etc.
