Carjackings in Chicago Set 6 Month Record

The statistics are what caught my attention. 3 in custody after woman is carjacked in Lincoln Park garage; another hijacking reported in Wicker Park - CWB Chicago

So 3 people are in custody. Will they be released as soon as they are in front of a judge? (No bail. Keeping violent people in jail is unfair.)

But on to the statistics.

Hijacking reports continue to outpace last year’s record-setting number, according to CPD data. Police recorded 806 cases during the first six months of the year, up from 760 during the period last year, 472 in the first half of 2020, and 251 as of July 1, 2019.

June also outpaced the same month last year, with 143 cases compared to 129. According to the city’s data portal, there were 114 in June 2020 and 47 in June 2019.

What happens when the powers in a city set out on a course to destroy law and order. You get increased crime.

See my standard reference to what Hobbes called The State of War. Soft-on-crime leads to more crime. Are we shocked?
