Because most of those crimes are committed by Leftists & Criminals, DC is a Leftist shit hole which makes it a Criminalist shithole.
Anachro-Tyrrany is a categorical imperative of an authoritarian system, and Leftists use Criminals as a cudgel.
Normally most political use of the criminal element is through organized crime in order to allow the government to control both the illegal and legal market. Organized crime is actually effective at reducing random violence, and this helps to give the government and police legitimacy.
In this case, our specific brand of DC Leftists are straight up Bolshevists who see the criminal element as inherently moral or useful.
