I moved to LA last year. I just found these blogs and find them interesting and insightful. I appreciate that your officers write so much about topics. I find that unique.
I did have a question about the crime stats. If these are YTD, even though, currently, there is a decrease in the amount of crime in the city, we are only entering into the third month of 2007, which concerns me because so many of the stats are almost caught up with 2006. Have I misunderstood the information?
Thank you for your clarification.
