    Default PPD scrubbing the crime stats

    For more than a decade, if Philadelphia police officers made a typo or were unable to record a precise location for a crime committed in the city, the department would mark the incident with GPS coordinates inside Disney World in Florida. Specifically, the area behind Cinderella’s Castle known as "Fantasyland" became the default location for inaccurate crime data.

    Anyone that lives in the area and can read can see that crime has exploded regardless of how they try to put lipstick on the pig

    1) I believe life in the 21st century is better with a soundtrack/mix tape.

    2) You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to bogey1 again.

    The researchers also compared the cities' gun violence data with combat-related deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan -- from 2001 to 2014 for Afghanistan and 2003 to 2009 in Iraq.
    While young men in Chicago and Philadelphia had a much greater risk of firearm death, those in the most violent parts of Los Angeles and New York had a 70% to 91% lower risk than U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan, the researchers said.

    This doesn’t even include the scores (possibly 100 or more) of so called “suspicious deaths” which are really homicides being kept off the books to limit the embarrassment.

    When I was in the business, the city "created" a new category for "stolen" cars.
    If it was of a certain age, and Not insured against theft, it Wasn't Stolen, it was "try and locate", as if the owner Forgot where they Left it????
