Crime stats are likely also down because of the things businesses have done like locking everything up behind glass and like I mentioned the amount of police out. If the Capitol PD stayed only on the hill and DC wasn't relying on all these other agencies I don't think the numbers would be good at all.

DC’s City Council also tried to lower mandatory minimums for a variety of crimes including sexual violence if people were young. That blew up in there face as well.

Also one of the councilmen has been arrested and is on trial for bribery but somehow keeps his job….
