Reply to comment by [deleted] in Chief: DC Police Staffing at Its Lowest in Decades by thinkcontext

Okay so is that “no basis”?

There were 103 murders in DC in 2013 and 221 in 2021. That’s over double in 9 years. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crime_in_Washington,_D.C.

So I guess we accept you were wrong at this stage?

I’d check those numbers again buddy. And how many of those cities also had declining numbers of police officers?
