Crime isn't down. Reporting crime is down. Because the cops are useless and the DA just gives the miscreants a free hand job and sends them right back out.
Exactly. The stats can be juked in any way they want, they're meaningless.
It reminds me of how, in Mao's China and in the USSR, agriculture officials would lie about crop yields out of fear of their superiors. The senior officials demanded that their ideas of Lysenkoism and farm collectivization work. They were ideologically committed to them working and would not accept failure. So the people under them just lied. And the people under them lied. All the way down to the farmers. The whole system ran on fear and a determination to not be proven wrong, and when people were starving by the millions, they just didn't report on that.
Sex trafficking is down because cops can't arrest prostitutes anymore. Cops used to rely on their testimony in order to prosecute johns and pimps, but now they can't pressure prostitutes to snitch anymore. As a result, it's much harder to build a case. As is the case with many retarded California policies, a law made to "protect sex trafficking victims" ended up hurting them even more.
Wait a minute.... thats not in green text!

I think the A in POA should be changed to an S
