The increase in crime was predicted....as the democrats attacked the police to the point they can't or won't do their jobs, as they passed no cash bail laws, and raised the amount you can steal before you commit a felony........and in New York, the "Raise the Age," law .....
It can no longer be seen as mere incompetence......I think this is an actual policy to increase the instability in the cities they control.......one goal is to purge the police forces of normal, conservative....and republican voting police officers....to be replaced with cops who are first loyal to the democrat party.
In 2018, “justice reform” activists in New York State had one of their wishes granted when the state enacted a disastrous “Raise the Age” (RTA) law. Democrats did this over the loud objections of badly outnumbered Republicans and conservatives. What the law did over a period of two years was increase the age of criminal liability for all defendants to 18, eliminating the option of trying the most violent juvenile defendants as adults.

With all of the crime in New York City these days, it can be easy to lose track of who is doing what. But various places around New York State are running into the same problem that Chicago has been facing, with roving gangs of teenagers running wild and engaging in violent crime. And thanks to the way the juvenile justice system works, these teenagers know that they will almost always be immediately put back out on the streets.The 2018 law is driving the years-long epidemic of gun violence involving kids under 18…
Flagging a recent fatal shooting involving a teen gunman who’d had several run-ins with the justice system, [Soares] told them: “We witnessed the murder of a young man at the hands of another young man that had gone through the family court Raise the Age process and was a beneficiary there at a minimum of three times.”
Last year, the outspoken, progressive Albany DA blasted Gov. Kathy Hochul and state lawmakers over RTA and other criminal-justice reforms that have “normalized” violence without consequences in urban minority communities across the state.
