00:00Prosecution rates are at historic highs in the district.

00:05We are prosecuting crime like never before in the District of Columbia.

00:11Fewer than 10% of the cases go unprosecuted,

00:17compared to almost 70% of the cases that went unprosecuted in the last administration.

00:25So, as a direct result of the increase in prosecution, tougher enforcement, crime is coming down in D.C.

00:33And since the enhanced federal partnership and the surge as well,

00:38as you can see, homicide is down 60%.

00:43Robbery is down 49%.

00:47Carjackings are down 68%.

00:52And as someone new to the district,

00:55that was the one thing that people constantly talked to me about, carjackings.

01:00And they are now down 68%.

01:03Overall crime down 32%.

01:05The reason the crime isn't down even more than that, than the 32%,

01:11is because now we're accurately counting assaults with a deadly weapon,

01:17as opposed to minimizing them with lesser or non-D.C.R. crimes.
