national level. do you think this is a oneoff case or are you worried that there are other police officers that act so unprofessionally? it is definitely not a oneoff case when you see from the george floyd incident to the eric garner incident to this incident that these things happen. and they often happen within these high end plain clothes units. it comes back to supervision. on the other hand, american cities are struggling with crime. and these units properly supervised and properly trained with officers who have the requisite experience, things that we re seeing lacking in this case, can be very effective on reducing violent crime. but it has to be done the right way. it shouldn t be a binary choice. you have to be able to address the crime while also addressing the policing situation. and there are studies by perf that show that recruitment is down slightly, but retirement and resignation is right up. so something has to be done to

your city is reaching out for health and municipalities to help. why can t baltimore get it done by itself? it s good to be here, chris. it s not that we can t get it done by ourselves, we shouldn t. a lot of targets we have are high value targets for the federal government as well as the city police and partnerships work. we know the spike in crime we are seeing here in baltimore is happening in other cities around the country. we know, historically, when cities across the country and when our country dealt with spikes in violence, there s been a national response. that s what we need here. as president and conference of mayors, i m going to continue to push for it. early on, a suspicion the spike had to do with the civil unrest, the policing situation there. do you believe that or do you believe there are plenty of reasons for things to go the wrong way? there are plenty of reasons for the spike in crime in baltimore.
