FWIW, at the Fairmount community meeting with police last night the PPD put this one on the DA (weird) and said they’re hoping Krasner’s task force will deter carjacking — whatever that means

Yeah, my gut feeling is that this administration is running out the clock, and the police are coasting.

The DA can't file charges if the police don't make an arrest, so that excuse is bullshit.

Ya honestly the whole thing was infuriating. Like I had to go take a walk around the block to cool down after I left. It was an hour and 15 minutes of PPD leadership saying “it’s not our fault your lives are like this. It’s too hard to police now bc you all take videos of us and Krasner. If you want to feel safer, write to your council person to demand more money for the PPD.” Fortunately, some guy called them out for voting for FOP leadership that created and allowed the sick leave scheme so it wasn’t all “us police are so helpless, woah is us”
