YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Crime in 2023 saw one of the largest declines in history. According to the FBI, murder is down double digits nationally. Violent crime, robberies, and burglary – all down. But if you ask the average American whether they think crime is under control, most will tell you it’s either extremely or very serious and over three quarters will say the problem is getting worse. The question is: why the disconnect? Ames Grawert, Senior Counsel at the Brennan Center for Justice, joins The Excerpt to discuss why the declining numbers and public perception of crime are so at odds.
