truth about violent crime in our city, we will be the worst for it. if we say yeah, the police department is spending all this time and resources to rest but a case on and then the judges and the prosecutors say, you know what? we re going to let you out on electronic monitoring to wreak havoc again. and if we don t call that out every single day with these prosecutors and with the judges, many of whom don t live in our city and don t care about what s happening, then we are going to lose an opportunity to advocate for the victims and the witnesses and a resident who just want in deserve peace. we gotta say it. she was one of the four black mayors leading america s biggest cities who gathered at the african american mayors association conference. new york city mayor eric adams made a similar point. we need to be honest and forthright about the small numerical number of people who are repeated offenders we have about 2000. people in our city that are extreme result of recidivi
