Updated with 2022 Data Unsurprisingly, 2022 had exceptionally low rates of Philadelphians in PA Prison and an exceptionally high homicide total Forced decarceration remained a disaster The inverse correlation between homicide and incarceration actually grew stronger from 2021

In March 2022, @CMThomasPHL 's Driving Equality Bill went into effect. Has anything changed since then? Let's take a look: The hit and run rate of fatal crashes increased by 45%, from 20% to 29%. There were 35 fatal hit and run crashes, more than double the 2019 total.

What is Victor talking about? Has @KeeleyFox29 ever reported false or juiced data to sell a fake crime narrative? No. Keeley reports crime stories: individuals being wronged, robbed, or killed. He regularly shows the anguish of families and pleas for help. It's important work

When I think of the problems plaguing Philadelphia, from crime, to schools, to poverty & blight, I think of one word: Mismanagement The city's agencies and programs are not evaluated for efficacy or held accountable If Philly government was a business, theyd be out of business

Krasner has charged far fewer juveniles than his predecessor. Consequently, juvenile shootings have risen. Well over 1,000 fewer cases brought against juveniles 2017 vs 2021. That's a >25% reduction

. @DA_LarryKrasner has turned his office into a second defense counsel for juveniles, as can be seen in this summary of his policies His lack of juvenile prosecution can also be seen in data from the PA Courts system - more than 1,000 fewer cases charges

Metal tubes jam packed with people are maskless. The entire rest of the nation is maskless. But Philly continues the hysteria, in the name of redlining and inclusion Meanwhile, our city's streets are covered in the blood of those most maligned, but that doesn't warrant a mandate

#Philadelphia has seen as steady trend of juvenile prosecution falling while the number of juvenile shooting victims has increased. The number of cases tracks with official written allegations, as approved by the @philadao . De-prosecution again correlates with more violence ...

I'm not a native Philadelphian, but having lived here 18 years - I legitimately find people with ZERO affiliation to the city coming here to sway votes very anti-Philly, esp from NYC The city has changed a lot recently, but if I had to guess, that's still a common sentiment
